In this article, we study the asymptotic solutions of the generalized Fermat equation, i.e., $Ax^p+By^p+Cz^p=0$ over $K$ of prime exponent $p$, where $A,B,C \\in \\mathcal{O}_K \\setminus \\{0\\}$ with $ABC$ is even (in the sense that $\\mathfrak{P}| ABC$, for some prime ideal $\\mathfrak{P}$ of $ \\mathcal{O}_K$ with $\\mathfrak{P} |2$). For certain class of fields $K$, we prove that the equation $Ax^p+By^p+Cz^p=0$ has no asymptotic solution in $K^3$ (resp., of certain type in $K^3$), under some assumptions on $A,B,C$ (resp., for all $A,B,C \\in \\mathcal{O}_K \\setminus \\{0\\}$ with $ABC$ is even). We also present several purely local criteria of $K$ such that $Ax^p+By^p+Cz^p=0$ has no asymptotic solutions in $K^3$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-04-14T07:31:10.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11D41", "11R80", "11F80", "11G05", "11Y40" ], "keywords": [ "totally real number field", "generalized fermat equation", "asymptotic solution", "prime exponent", "prime ideal" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
