Perfect Numbers and Fibonacci Primes (II)
Abstract
In this paper, we study the diophantine equation σ 2(n)-n2=An+B. We prove that except for finitely many computable solutions, all the solutions to this equation with (A,B)=(L2m,F2m2-1) are n=F2k+1F2k+2m+1, where both F2k+1 and F2k+2m+1 are Fibonacci primes. Meanwhile, we show that the twin primes conjecture holds if and only if the equation σ 2(n)-n2=2n+5 has infinitely many solutions.
