We study the solutions of the Rosenberg--Markoff equation ax^2+by^2+cz^2 = dxyz (a generalization of the well--known Markoff equation). We specifically focus on looking for solutions in arithmetic progression that lie in the ring of…
Solutions of the Markoff-Rosenberger equation ax^2+by^2+cz^2 = dxyz such that their coordinates belong to the ring of integers of a number field and form a geometric progression are studied.
In this paper, we study positive integer solutions to a generalized form of the Markov equation, given as $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + k(yz + zx + xy) = (3 + 3k)xyz$. This equation extends the classical Markov equation $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 3xyz$. We…
Markov polynomials are the Laurent-polynomial solutions of the generalised Markov equation $$X^2 + Y^2 + Z^2 = kXYZ, \quad k=\frac{x^2 + y^2 + z^2}{x y z}$$ which are the results of cluster mutations applied to the initial triple $(x, y,…
In this paper, we deal with two classes of Diophantine equations, $x^2+y^2+z^2+k_1yz+k_2zx+k_3xy=(3+k_1+k_2+k_3)xyz$ and $x^2+y^4+z^4+ky^2z^2+2xz^2+2xy^2=(7+k)xy^2z^2$, where $k_1,k_2,k_3,k$ are nonnegative integers. The former is known as…
For a positive integer $m>1$, if the generalized Markoff equation $a^2+b^2+c^2=3abc+m$ has a solution triple, then it has infinitely many solutions. We show that all positive solution triples are generated by a finite set of triples that we…
We consider the generalized Hurwitz equation $a_1x_1^2+ \cdots +a_nx_n^2 = dx_1 \cdots x_n-k$ and the Baragar-Umeda equation $ax^2+by^2+cz^2=dxyz+e$ for solvability in integers.
We provide a superalgebraic analogue of Markov numbers, which are defined as the Grassmann integer solutions to the equation $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + (xy + yz + xz)\epsilon = 3(1 + \epsilon)xyz$, as well as applications to the Decorated Super…
For an integer \( k \geq 2 \), the sequence of \( k \)-generalized Lucas numbers is defined by the recurrence relation \( L_n^{(k)} = L_{n-1}^{(k)} + \cdots + L_{n-k}^{(k)} \) for all \( n \geq 2 \), with initial conditions \( L_0^{(k)} = 2…
Markov's equation x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 3xyz is a widely studied topic in number theory, and the structure of its solutions has profound connections with mathematical fields such as combinatorics, hyperbolic geometry, approximation theory, and…
We obtain a new bound for the number of solutions to polynomial equations in cosets of multiplicative subgroups in finite fields, which generalises previous results of P. Corvaja and U. Zannier (2013). We also obtain a conditional…
The $k$-Markov numbers, introduced by Gyoda and Matsushita, are those which appear in positive integral solutions to $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + k(xy + xz + yz) = (3+3k)xyz$. When $k =0$, this recovers the ordinary Markov numbers. A long-standing…
The Markov numbers are the positive integer solutions of the Diophantine equation $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 3xyz$. Already in 1880, Markov showed that all these solutions could be generated along a binary tree. So it became quite usual (and…
For Lucas sequences of the first kind (u_n) and second kind (v_n) defined as usual for positive n by u_n=(a^n-b^n)/(a-b), v_n=a^n+b^n, where a and b are either integers or conjugate quadratic integers, we describe the set of indices n for…
We develop a generalized Markov theory for the Markov--Lagrange and Markov spectra. The classical discrete Markov spectrum is governed by Markov numbers, the positive integers occurring in solutions of the Markov equation. We show that this…
For an integer $k\geq 2$, let $(L_{n}^{(k)})_{n}$ be the $k-$generalized Lucas sequence which starts with $0,\ldots,0,2,1$ ($k$ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In this paper, we find all the integers…
A triple (a, b, c) of positive integers is called a Markoff triple iff it satisfies the Diophantine equation a2+b2+c2=abc . Recasting the Markoff tree, whose vertices are Markoff triples, in the framework of integral upper triangular 3x3…
In a recent work, the present author developed an efficient method to find the number of solutions of $ax+by+cz=n$ in non-negative integer triples $(x,y,z)$ where $a,b,c$ and $n$ are given natural numbers. In this note, we use that formula…
