In number theory, Diophantine equations are those where you are only looking for integer solutions. This restriction sounds like it might make the problem easier, but in fact it results in a mathematical puzzle that are among the most difficult to solve.
In this video we explore the simplest Diophantine equation: polynomial equations with a single unknown. In this case, we can devise an algorithm that is guaranteed to find all solutions, if any exist.
