Inverse problems associated with perfect cuboids

Number Theory 2012-07-31 v1

Abstract

A perfect cuboid is a rectangular parallelepiped with integer edges, integer face diagonals, and integer space diagonal. Such cuboids have not yet been found, but nor has their existence been disproved. Perfect cuboids are described by a certain system of Diophantine equations possessing an intrinsic S3S_3 symmetry. Recently these equations were factorized with respect to this S3S_3 symmetry and the factor equations were transformed into EE-form. As appears, the transformed factor equations are explicitly solvable. Based on this solution, polynomial inverse problems are formulated in the present paper.
