چکیده

The Greek mathematician Diophantus of Alexandria studied the following problem: Find four (positive rational) numbers such that the product of any two of them increased by 1 is a perfect square. He obtained the following solution: 1 16 , 33 16 , 17 4 , 105 16 (see [4]). Fermat obtained four positive integers satisfying the condition of the problem above: 1, 3, 8, 120. For example, 3 · 120+1 = 19. Later, Davenport and Baker [3] showed that if d is a positive integer such that the set {1, 3, 8, d} has the property of Diophantus, then d has to be 120. There are two direct generalizations of the set {1, 3, 8, 120}: the sets {n, n + 2, 4n + 4, 4(n + 1)(2n + 1)(2n + 3)}, (1)

Diophantine quadruples in Z [ √ − 2 ]

In this paper, we study the existence of Diophantine quadruples with the property D(z) in the ring Z[ √−2 ]. We find several new polynomial formulas for Diophantine quadruples with the property D(a+ b √−2 ), for integers a and b satisfying certain congruence conditions. These formulas, together with previous results on this subject by Abu Muriefah, Al-Rashed and Franušić, allow us to almost com...

Adjugates of Diophantine Quadruples

Philip Gibbs Diophantine m-tuples with property D(n), for n an integer, are sets of m positive integers such that the product of any two of them plus n is a square. Triples and quadruples with this property can be classed as regular or irregular according to whether they satisfy certain polynomial identities. Given any such m-tuple, a symmetric integer matrix can be formed with the elements of ...

Some Diophantine Triples and Quadruples for Quadratic Polynomials

In this paper, we give some new examples of polynomial D(n)triples and quadruples, i.e. sets of polynomials with integer coefficients, such that the product of any two of them plus a polynomial n ∈ Z[X] is a square of a polynomial with integer coefficients. The examples illustrate various theoretical properties and constructions for a quadratic polynomial n which appeared in recent papers. One ...

Some diophantine quadruples in the ring Z [ √ − 2 ]

A complex diophantine quadruple with the property D (z), where z ∈ Z[√−2], is a subset of Z[√−2] of four elements such that the product of its any two distinct elements increased by z is a perfect square in Z[ √−2]. In the present paper we prove that if b is an odd integer, then there does not exist a diophantine quadruple with the property D(a + b √−2). For z = a + b√−2, where b is even, we pr...

Erdős-turán with a Moving Target, Equidistribution of Roots of Reducible Quadratics, and Diophantine Quadruples

ABSTRACT. A Diophantine m-tuple is a set A of m positive integers such that ab + 1 is a perfect square for every pair a, b of distinct elements of A. We derive an asymptotic formula for the number of Diophantine quadruples whose elements are bounded by x. In doing so, we extend two existing tools in ways that might be of independent interest. The Erdős-Turán inequality bounds the discrepancy be...
