Abstract
For a prime p, a Diophantine m-tuple in is a set of m nonzero elements of with the property that the product of any two of its distinct elements is one less than a square. In this paper, we present formulas for the number of Diophantine m-tuples in for m=2,3 and 4. Fourier coefficients of certain modular forms appear in the formula for the number of Diophantine quadruples. We prove that asymptotically , and also show that if , then there is at least one Diophantine m-tuple in .
