On a Question of Erdős and Graham
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this note, we sharpen work of Ulas to provide what is, in some sense, the minimal counterexample to a “conjecture” of Erdős and Graham about square values of products of disjoint blocks of consecutive integers.

Squares from Blocks of Consecutive Integers : a Problem of Erdős and Graham
In this paper, we construct, given an integer r ≥ 5, an infinite family of r non-overlapping blocks of five consecutive integers with the property that their product is always a perfect square. In this particular situation, this answers a question of Erdős and Graham in the negative.

متن کاملProfessor David Y. Graham: A Brilliant Scientist and a Compassionate Mentor
There is an enormous number of astounding scientists, who have made their mark in science. Very few of them also serve as a true mentor, ready to provide a helping hand to young researchers, especially those in developing countries, who must constantly struggle to remain optimistic. Professor David Y. Graham is one of these rare characters. He received his undergraduate degree from the U...
متن کاملPartial proof of Graham Higman's conjecture related to coset diagrams
Graham Higman has defined coset diagrams for PSL(2,ℤ). These diagrams are composed of fragments, and the fragments are further composed of two or more circuits. Q. Mushtaq has proved in 1983 that existence of a certain fragment γ of a coset diagram in a coset diagram is a polynomial f in ℤ[z]. Higman has conjectured that, the polynomials related to the fragments are monic and for a fixed degree...
