Markov numbers are integers that appear in triples which are solutions of a Diophantine equation, the so-called Markov cubic $$x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - 3x y z = 0.$$ A classical topic in number theory, these numbers are related to many areas of…

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…

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…

An analysis of the Markov tree is presented. Markov triplets, {x,R,z}, are the positive integer solutions to the Diophantine equation x2 + R2 + z2 = 3xRz. Inspired by patterns of the Fibonacci and Pell triplets in Region 1 and Region 2 of…

We study an extension to the uniqueness conjecture for Markov numbers. For any three positive integers $m\geq a$ and $m\geq b$ satisfying $a^2+b^2+m^2=3abm$, this conjecture states that the triple $(a,m,b)$ is uniquely determined by the…

We construct a word-theoretic framework for generalized Markov numbers, that is, positive integers appearing in positive integer solutions of the generalized Markov equation $x^2+y^2+z^2+k_1yz+k_2zx+k_3xy=(3+k_1+k_2+k_3)xyz$. For each…
