In this paper we first show that, under certain conditions, the solution of a single quadratic diophantine equation in four variables $Q(x_1,\,x_2,\,x_3,\,x_4)=0$ can be expressed in terms of bilinear forms in four parameters. We use this…
The paper deals with the following system of nonlinear difference equations \begin{equation*} x_{n+1}=ax_{n}^{2}y_{n}+bx_{n}y_{n}^{2},\ y_{n+1}=cx_{n}^{2}y_{n}+dx_{n}y_{n}^{2},\ n\in \mathbb{N}_{0}, \end{equation*} where the initial values…
Let $n \ge 8$ be even, and let $G = \langle x, y \mid x^2 = y^{n/2}, y^n = 1, yx = xy^s \rangle$, where $s^2 \equiv 1 \pmod n$ and $s \not\equiv \pm1 \pmod n$. In this paper, we provide the precise values of some zero-sum constants over…
In this note we study the integer solutions of Cayley's cubic equation. We find infinite families of solutions built from recurrence relations. We use these solutions to solve certain general Pell equations. We also show the similarities…
In this short note we study the existence and number of solutions in the set of integers ($Z$) and in the set of natural numbers ($N$) of Diopahntine Equations of second degree with two variables of the general form $ax^2-by^2=c$.
Let $p$ be a fixed odd prime and $Q(x,y,z)=ax^2+bxy+cy^2+dxz+eyz+fz^2$ be a fixed quadratic form in $\mathbb{Z}[x,y,z]$ which is non-degenerate in $\mathbb{F}_p[x,y,z]$ and $(a(4ac-b^2),p)=1.$ Let $(x_0,y_0,z_0)$ be a fixed point in…
We give a methodology for solving the chiral equations $(\alpha g_{,z} g^{-1})_{,\overline z} + (\alpha g_{,\overline z} g^{-1})_{,z} \ = \ 0 $ where $g$ belongs to some Lie group $G$. The solutions are writing in terms of Harmonic maps.…
This paper is purely expository. We present short elementary proofs of * the Gauss Theorem on constructibility of regular polygons; * the existence of a cubic equation unsolvable in real radicals; * the existence of a quintic equation…
Sextic polynomial oscillator is probably the best known quantum system which is partially exactly {\it alias} quasi-exactly solvable (QES), i.e., which possesses closed-form, elementary-function bound states $\psi(x)$ at certain couplings…
This short paper is concerned with polynomial Pell equations \[P^2-DQ^2=1,\] with $P,Q,D\in\Bbb C[X]$ and ${deg}(D)=2$. The main result shows that the polynomials $P$ and $Q$ are closely related to Chebyshev polynomials. We then investigate…
The focus of the paper is on constructing new solutions of the generalized classical Yang-Baxter equation (GCYBE) that are not skew-symmetric. Using regular decompositions of finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras, we construct Lie algebra…
Lagrange's four-square theorem states that every natural number $n$ can be represented as the sum of four integer squares: $n=x_1^2+x_2^2+x_3^2+x_4^2$. Ramanujan generalized Lagrange's result by providing, up to equivalence, all $54$…
A novel development is given of the theory of Gaussian quadrature, not relying on the theory of orthogonal polynomials. A method is given for computing the nodes and weights that is manifestly independent of choice of basis in the space of…
We introduce a new class of generalised quadratic forms over totally real number fields, which is rich enough to capture the arithmetic of arbitrary systems of quadrics over the rational numbers. We explore this connection through a version…
In this paper, we confirm the following conjecture of Guo and Schlosser: for any odd integer $n>1$ and $M=(n+1)/2$ or $n-1$, $$ \sum_{k=0}^{M}[4k-1]_{q^2}[4k-1]^2\frac{(q^{-2};q^4)_k^4}{(q^4;q^4)_k^4}q^{4k}\equiv…
In this paper we investigate Diophantine equations of the form $T^2=G(\overline{X}),\; \overline{X}=(X_{1},\ldots,X_{m})$, where $m=3$ or $m=4$ and $G$ is specific homogenous quintic form. First, we prove that if…
We show that there are infinitely many primes of the form $X^2+(Y^2+1)^2$ and $X^2+(Y^3+Z^3)^2$. This extends the work of Friedlander and Iwaniec showing that there are infinitely many primes of the form $X^2+Y^4$. More precisely,…
We consider the Markoff-Rosenberger equation $$ax^2+by^2+cz^2=dxyz$$ with $(x,y,z)=(U_i,U_j,U_k),$ where $U_i$ denotes the $i$-th generalized Lucas number of first/second kind. We provide upper bound for the minimum of the indices and we…
