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 $m$ 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 Diophantine $m$-tuple is a set of $m$ distinct integers such that the product of any two distinct elements plus one is a perfect square. It was recently proven that there is no Diophantine quintuple in positive integers. We study the same…
We consider Diophantine quintuples $\{a, b, c, d, e\}$, sets of distinct positive integers the product of any two elements of which is one less than a perfect square. Triples of the first kind are the subsets $\{a, b, d\}$ with $d> b^{5}$.…

We show that if {1, b, c, d} is a D(-1) diophantine quadruple with b<c<d and c=1+s^2, then the cases s=p^k, s=2p^k, c=p and c=2p^k do not occur, where p is an odd prime and k is a positive integer. For the integer d=1+x^2, we show that it…
Let $d$ be a square-free integer and $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{d}]$ a quadratic ring of integers. For a given $n\in\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{d}]$, a set of $m$ non-zero distinct elements in $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{d}]$ is called a Diophantine $D(n)$-$m$-tuple (or…
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…
We prove that every Diophantine quadruple in $\mathbb{R}[X]$ is regular. More precisely, we prove that if $\{a, b, c, d\}$ is a set of four non-zero polynomials from $\mathbb{R}[X]$, not all constant, such that the product of any two of its…
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 =…
In this paper, we prove that the equation $x^2-(p^{2k+2}+1)y^2=-p^{2l+1}$, $l \in \{0,1,\dots,k\}, k \geq 0$, where $p$ is an odd prime number, is not solvable in positive integers $x$ and $y$. By combining that result with other known…
A set $\{a, b, c, d\}$ of four non-zero distinct polynomials in $\mathbb{Z}[i][X]$ is said to be a Diophantine $D(4)$-quadruple if the product of any two of its distinct elements increased by 4 is a square of some polynomial in…
We study pairs and triples consisting of triangular numbers such that the product of any two distinct elements decreased by 1 is a perfect square. For a positive integer $n$, we establish a necessary condition for the $n$-th triangular…
A Diophantine $m$-tuple is a set of $m$ distinct integers such that the product of any two distinct elements plus one is a perfect square. In this paper we study the extensibility of a Diophantine triple $\{k-1, k+1, 16k^3-4k\}$ in Gaussian…

In this paper we prove a conjecture that $D(4)$-quintuple does not exist using both classical and new methods. Also, we give a new version of the Rickert's theorem that can be applied on some $D(4)$-quadruples.
