In this article we further develop methods for representing integers as a sum of three cubes. In particular, a barrier to solving the case $k=3$, which was outlined in a previous paper of the second author, is overcome. A very recent…
A folklore conjecture in number theory states that the only integers whose expansions in base $3,4$ and $5$ contain solely binary digits are $0, 1$ and $82000$. In this paper, we present the first progress on this conjecture. Furthermore,…
We find the numbers of $3 \times 3$ magic, semimagic, and magilatin squares, as functions either of the magic sum or of an upper bound on the entries in the square. Our results on magic and semimagic squares differ from previous ones in…
The numbers of representations of totally positive integers as sums of three integer squares in $\mathbf{Q}(\sqrt{3})$ and in $\mathbf{Q}(\sqrt{17})$, are studied by using Shimura lifting map of Hilbert modular forms. We show the following…
In this paper we have a look at squared squares with small integer sidelengths, where the only restriction is that any two subsquares of the same size are not allowed to share a full border. We prove that there are exactly two such squared…
In this work, we define a triangle area number to be the area number of a triangle whose sides have integer lengths, and whose area is a rational number. In Result 3, on page 17, we prove that every triangle area number is in fact an…
For $a \neq 1$ and $p$ prime, we define numbers of the form $pa^2$ to be Square-Prime (SP) Numbers. For example, 75 = 3 $\cdot$ 25; 108 = 3 $\cdot$ 36; 45 = 5 $\cdot$ 9. These numbers are listed in the OEIS as A228056. We study the…
We investigate integer numbers which possess at the same time the properties to be triangulars and squares, that are, numbers $a$ for which do exist integers $m$ and $n$ such that $ a = n^2 = \frac{m \cdot (m+1)}{2} $. In particular, we are…
A \emph{repdigit} is a natural number greater than 10 which has all of its base-10 digits the same. In this paper we find all examples of two repdigits adding to a square. The proofs lead to interesting questions about consecutive quadratic…
A number $N$ is a triangular number if it can be written as $N = t(t + 1)/2$ for some nonnegative integer number $t$. A triangular number $N$ is called square if it is a perfect square, that is, $N = d^2$ for some integer number $d$. Square…
Using a quartic surface and its rational curves we can give an infinite number of integer hexahedra; these are 6 sided 3d solids, each face a trapezoid, with all sides and diagonals having intger lengths.
We study real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$ such that, for a given rational integer $m$, all $m$-multiples of totally positive integers are sums of squares. We prove quite sharp necessary and sufficient conditions for this to…
We show that there are infinitely many square numbers , which are constrocted by putting two square numbers together , that non of them are divisible by $10$ . We also investigate the interesting properties of some square numbers.
Triangular numbers that are multiple of other triangular numbers are investigated. It is known that for any positive non-square integer multiplier, there is an infinity of multiples of triangular numbers which are triangular numbers. If the…
In this short note we have given an equation based on the date 11.09.2001 and presented some magic squares. The magic squares presented are of order 3x3, 4x4, 5x5, 9x9, 16x16 and 25x25. While the magic square of higher order 9x9, 16x16 and…
We consider so-called squaring the square-puzzles where a given square (or rectangle) should be dissected into smaller squares. For a specific instance of such problems we demonstrate that a mathematically rigorous solution can be quite…
In this paper, we study partitions of positive integers with restrictions involving squares. We mainly establish the following two results (which were conjectured by Sun in 2013): (i) Each positive integer $n$ can be written as $n=x+y+z$…
In the plane, three integer points ("fleas") are given. At every tick of time, two of them (say, P,Q) instantly jump to two vacant points R,S, so that PQRS is a square with that order of vertices. Description of all integers and…
We search for triangular numbers that are multiples of other triangular numbers. It is found that for any positive non-square integer multiplier, there is an infinity of multiples of triangular numbers that are triangular numbers and…
A square trisection is a problem of assembling three identical squares from a larger square, using a minimal number of pieces. This paper presents an historical overview of the square trisection problem starting with its origins in the…
