Abstract
In a paper published in 1993, Erdös proved that if n!=a! b!, where 1 < a≤b, then the difference between n and b does not exceed 5 log log n for large enough n. In the present paper, we improve this upper bound to ((1+ε)/log2)log logn and generalize it to the equation a1!a2!... ak!=n!. In a recent paper, F. Luca proved that n−b=1 for large enough n provided that the ABC-hypothesis holds.
