Solve the Diophantine equation $ (3^{n}-1)(3^{m}-1)=x^{r} $

Is there a solution other than solution \begin{equation*} (3^{2}-1)(3^{2}-1)=2^{6}=4^{3} \end{equation*} of the Diophantine equation \begin{equation*} (3^{n}-1)(3^{m}-1)=x^{r} \end{equation*} for positive integers $ n, m, x, r $ such as $ n, m, x…

Integer solution of $2 m (2^{n+1} - 1) = n (3^{m+1} - 1)$

I was reading a lot of other questions here which are supposed to be similar, but none of the answers gave me a hint, how I can approach this. I wrote a Python program to solve it, but up to $2^n < 1e20$ there were no solutions. So I guess my…

Are there non-trivial integer solutions for $3^x=2^y+1$?

Consider the equation: $3^x = 2^y+1$ (with $(x,y) \in \mathbb{N}^2$) There are two easy to find solutions ((1,1) and (2,3)), but it doesn't look like there are more of them. Are there more solutions to this equation?

Determine the natural numbers $x$, $y$ such that $3 \cdot 2^x+1= 7^y$

Determine the natural numbers $x$, $y$ such that $3\cdot 2^x+1= 7^y$. I have some not-really-good ideas we can start with: Using the last figure and determine the parity of the number and many more divided. I don't know why I thought of it, but we…
