A Fermat-type equation deals with representing a nonzero constant as a sum of kth powers of nonconstant functions. Suppose that $k{\geq}2$. Consider $\sum_{i=1}^{p}\;f_i(z)^k=1$. Let p be the smallest number of functions that give the above identity. We consider the Fermat-type equation for MAobius transformations and obtain $k{\leq}p{\leq}k+1$.

In this paper, we extend some previous works by Liu et al. on the existence of transcendental entire solutions of differential-difference equations of Fermat type. In addition, we also present a precise description of the associated entire solutions.

This paper is to consider the generalized Fermat difference equations with different types which ever considered by Li [14], Ishizaki and Korhonen [9], Zhang [26] and Liu [15-18], respectively. Some new observations and results on these equations will be given.

We investigate the non-existence of finite order transcendental entire solutions of Fermat-type differential-difference equations [f(z)f'(z)]ⁿ + P²(z)f^m(z + 𝜂) = Q(z) and [f(z)f'(z)]ⁿ + P(z)[∆_𝜂f(z)]^m = Q(z), where P(z) and Q(z) are non-zero polynomials, m and n are positive integers, and 𝜂 ∈ ℂ \ {0}. In addition, we discuss transcendental entire solutions of finite order of the following Fermat-type differential-difference equation P²(z) [f^(k)(z)]² + [αf(z + 𝜂) - 𝛽f(z)]² = e^r(z), where $P(z){\not\equiv}0$ is a polynomial, r(z) is a non-constant polynomial, α ≠ 0 and 𝛽 are constants, k is a positive integer, and 𝜂 ∈ ℂ \ {0}. Our results generalize some previous results.

In this paper, we investigate the differential-difference equation $(f(z+c)-f(z))^2+P(z)^2(f^{(k)}(z))^2=Q(z)$, where P(z), Q(z) are nonzero polynomials. In addition, we also investigate Fermat type q-difference differential equations $f(qz)^2+(f^{(k)}(z))^2=1$ and $(f(qz)-f(z))^2+(f^{(k)}(z))^2=1$. If the above equations admit a transcendental entire solution of finite order, then we can obtain the precise expression of the solution.

We show a class of homogeneous polynomials of Fermat-Waring type such that for a polynomial P of this class, if $P(f_1,{\ldots},f_{N+1})=P(g_1,{\ldots},g_{N+1})$, where $f_1,{\ldots},f_{N+1}$; $g_1,{\ldots},g_{N+1}$ are two families of linearly independent entire functions, then $f_i=cg_i$, $i=1,2,{\ldots},N+1$, where c is a root of unity. As a consequence, we prove that if X is a hypersurface defined by a homogeneous polynomial in this class, then X is a unique range set for linearly non-degenerate non-Archimedean holomorphic curves.

In this paper, we utilize Nevanlinna theory to study the existence and forms of solutions for quadratic trinomial complex partial differential-difference equations of the form aF² + 2ωFG + bG² = exp(g), where ab ≠ 0, ω ∈ ℂ with ω² ≠ 0, ab and g is a polynomial in ℂⁿ. In order to achieve a comprehensive and thorough analysis, we study the characteristics of solutions in two specific cases: one when ω² ≠ 0, ab and the other when ω = 0. Because polynomials in several complex variables may exhibit periodic behavior, a property that differs from polynomials in single complex variables, our study of finding solutions of equations in ℂⁿ is significant. The main results of the paper improved several known results in ℂⁿ for n ≥ 2. Additionally, the corollaries generalize results of Xu et al. [Rocky Mountain J. Math. 52(6) (2022), 2169-2187] for trinomial equations with arbitrary coefficients in ℂⁿ. Finally, we provide examples that endorse the validity of the conclusions drawn from the main results and their related remarks.
