Abstract
This thesis examines the work which has been done on Brocard’s problem which is to study solutions to
n! + 1 = x²,
and related problems of the form
n! = f(x) or n! = f(x, y),
where f is a polynomial with integer coefficients. I also consider problems of the form
n! = f(x),
where there are apparently no solutions.
