Abstract :In this study, we deal with a special form of the Brocard-Ramanujan equation, which is one of the interesting and still open problems of Diophantine analysis. We search for the positive integer solutions of the Brocard-Ramanujan equation for the case where the right-hand side is Mersenne numbers. By using the definition of Mersenne numbers, appropriate inequalities for the parameters of the equation, and the prime factorization of $n!$ we show that there is no positive integer solution to this equation. Thus, we obtain this interesting result demonstrating that the square of any Mersenne number can not be expressed as $n!+1$.
Keywords : Brocard Ramanujan equation, Mersenne numbers, Diophantine equations
