Abstract

Let \(F_{n}\) be the 𝑛-th Fibonacci number. In this paper, we show that the only nonnegative solutions (𝑛, 𝑚, 𝑎)
of the Diophantine equation \(F_{n}^{2}+F_{m}^{2}=2^{\alpha}\) with 𝑛 ≥ 𝑚 ≥ 0 are (1, 0, 0), (2, 0, 0), (3, 0, 2), (6, 0, 6), (1, 1, 1), (2, 1, 1), (2, 2, 1), (3, 3, 3), (6, 6, 7).

Keywords

Fibonacci numbers; Diophantine equation; linear forms in logarithms; reduction method
