Sažetak

In this paper we study the polynomial version of Pillai's conjecture on the exponential Diophantine equation
p^n - q^m = f.
We prove that for any non-constant polynomial $f$ there are only finitely many quadruples $(n,m,\mathrm{deg}p,\mathrm{deg}q)$ consisting of integers $n,m\ge 2$ and non-constant polynomials $p,q$ such that Pillai's equation holds.
Moreover, we will give some examples that there can still be infinitely many possibilities for the polynomials $p,q$.
