Abstract

For a nonzero rational number qq, a rational D(q)D(q)-nn-tuple is a set of nn distinct nonzero rationals {a1,a2,,an}\{a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n\} such that aiaj+qa_ia_j+q is a square for all 1i<jn1 \leqslant i < j \leqslant n. We investigate for which qq there exist infinitely many rational D(q)D(q)-quintuples. We show that assuming the Parity Conjecture for the twists of several explicitly given elliptic curves, the density of such qq is at least 295026/29601099.5%295026/296010\approx 99.5\%.
