A set of $m$ distinct nonzero rationals $\{a_1, a_2,\ldots, a_m\}$ such that $a_i a_j+1$ is a perfect square for all $1\le i <j \le m$, is called a rational Diophantine $m$-tuple. If in addition, $a_i^2+1$ is a perfect square for $1\le i\le…

A set of $m$ positive integers $\{a_1, a_2, \dots , a_m\}$ is called a Diophantine $m$-tuple if $a_i a_j + 1$ is a perfect square for all $1 \le i < j \le m$. In 2004 Dujella proved that there is no Diophantine sextuple and that there are…

A rational Diophantine m-tuple is a set of m nonzero rationals such that the product of any two of them increased by 1 is a perfect square. The first rational Diophantine quadruple was found by Diophantus, while Euler proved that there are…

Let $k\geq 2$ and $n\neq 0$. A Diophantine tuple with property $D_k(n)$ is a set of positive integers $A$ such that $ab+n$ is a $k$-th power for all $a,b\in A$ with $a\neq b$. Such generalizations of classical Diophantine tuples have been…

We study the extensibility of $D(4)$-pairs $\{a,b\}$, where $b = ka$ and $k \in \{7,8,10,11,12,13\}$. Firstly, we show that it can be extended to a $D(4)$-triple with an element c, which is a member of a family of positive integers…

We consider Diophantine quintuples $\{a, b, c, d, e\}$. These are sets of distinct positive integers, the product of any two elements of which is one less than a perfect square. It is conjectured that there are no Diophantine quintuples; we…

A set of positive integers with the property that the product of any two of them is the successor of a perfect square is called Diophantine $D(-1)$--set. Such objects are usually studied via a system of generalized Pell equations naturally…

We show that the Diophantine pair $\{1, 3\}$ can not be extended to a Diophantine quintuple in $\mathbb{Z}\left[\sqrt{-2}\right]$. This result completes the work of the first author and establishes non-extensibility of the Diophantine pair…

In a simple integer chain, if $u_{i-1}$, $u_i$, and $u_{i+1}$ are three consecutive terms of the chain, and the pair $(u_{i-1}, u_i)$ has a certain property, then the next pair $(u_i, u_{i+1})$ also has the same property. We extend the idea…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $ \mathcal{O}_K$ be its ring of integers. A set $\{a_1, a_2, \cdots,a_m\} \subset \mathcal{O}_K\setminus\{0\}$ is called a Diophantine $m$-tuple in $\mathcal{O}_K$ with $D(-1)$ if $a_ia_j -1 =…

Diophantine quadruples are sets of four distinct positive integers such that the product of any two is one less than a square. All known examples belong to an infinite set which can be constructed recursively. Some observations on these…

A Diophantine $m$-tuple over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a set $\{a_1,\ldots, a_m\}$ of $m$ distinct elements in $\mathbb{F}_{q}^{*}$ such that $a_{i}a_{j}+1$ is a square in $\mathbb{F}_q$ whenever $i\neq j$. In this paper, we study…
