This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of Diophantine analysis, a subject that, owing to its thematic proximity to algebraic geometry, became fashionable in the last half century and has remained so ever since. This new treatment of the methods of Diophantus--a person whose very existence has long been doubted by most historians of mathematics--will be accessible to readers who have taken some university mathematics. It includes the elementary facts of algebraic geometry indispensable for its understanding. The heart of the book is a fascinating account of the development of Diophantine methods during the.

Download or read book Solving the Pell Equation written by Michael Jacobson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-02 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pell’s Equation is a very simple Diophantine equation that has been known to mathematicians for over 2000 years. Even today research involving this equation continues to be very active, as can be seen by the publication of at least 150 articles related to this equation over the past decade. However, very few modern books have been published on Pell’s Equation, and this will be the first to give a historical development of the equation, as well as to develop the necessary tools for solving the equation. The authors provide a friendly introduction for advanced undergraduates to the delights of algebraic number theory via Pell’s Equation. The only prerequisites are a basic knowledge of elementary number theory and abstract algebra. There are also numerous references and notes for those who wish to follow up on various topics.

Download or read book Solving Diophantine Equations written by Octavian Cira and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on 2014 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book a multitude of Diophantine equations and their partial or complete solutions are presented. How should we solve, for example, the equation η(π(x)) = π(η(x)), where η is the Smarandache function and π is Riemann function of counting the number of primes up to x, in the set of natural numbers? If an analytical method is not available, an idea would be to recall the empirical search for solutions. We establish a domain of searching for the solutions and then we check all possible situations, and of course we retain among them only those solutions that verify our equation. In other words, we say that the equation does not have solutions in the search domain, or the equation has n solutions in this domain. This mode of solving is called partial resolution. Partially solving a Diophantine equation may be a good start for a complete solving of the problem. The authors have identified 62 Diophantine equations that impose such approach and they partially solved them. For an efficient resolution it was necessarily that they have constructed many useful ”tools” for partially solving the Diophantine equations into a reasonable time. The computer programs as tools were written in Mathcad, because this is a good mathematical software where many mathematical functions are implemented. Transposing the programs into another computer language is facile, and such algorithms can be turned to account on other calculation systems with various processors.

Download or read book Elliptic Diophantine Equations written by Nikos Tzanakis and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-08-29 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents in a unified and concrete way the beautiful and deep mathematics - both theoretical and computational - on which the explicit solution of an elliptic Diophantine equation is based. It collects numerous results and methods that are scattered in the literature. Some results are hidden behind a number of routines in software packages, like Magma and Maple; professional mathematicians very often use these routines just as a black-box, having little idea about the mathematical treasure behind them. Almost 20 years have passed since the first publications on the explicit solution of elliptic Diophantine equations with the use of elliptic logarithms. The "art" of solving this type of equation has now reached its full maturity. The author is one of the main persons that contributed to the development of this art. The monograph presents a well-balanced combination of a variety of theoretical tools (from Diophantine geometry, algebraic number theory, theory of linear forms in logarithms of various forms - real/complex and p-adic elliptic - and classical complex analysis), clever computational methods and techniques (LLL algorithm and de Weger's reduction technique, AGM algorithm, Zagier's technique for computing elliptic integrals), ready-to-use computer packages. A result is the solution in practice of a large general class of Diophantine equations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, we show that: if the equation has an integer solution and a⋅b is not a perfect square, then (1) has an infinitude of integer solutions; in this case we find a closed expression for (xn,yn), the general positive integer solution, by an original method. More, we generalize it for any Diophantine equation of second degree and with two unknowns.

Download or read book BIQUADRATIC DIOPHANTINE EQUATIONS WITH INTEGER SOLUTIONS written by Prof. Dr. M.A. Gopalan and published by KY Publications. This book was released on 2018-07-01 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of Diophantine equation is an ancient subject that typically involves solving polynomial equations in integers. It is well known that a Diophantine equation is an equation with integer coefficient and multiple variables ( 2) having integer solutions. There is no universal method available to know whether a Diophantine equation has a solutions or finding all solutions, if it exists. Proving that even simple Diophantine equations have no solutions may require very sophisticated methods and in such cases, a lot of deep and beautiful mathematics get generated as a result. It is worth to observe that Diophatine equations are rich in variety. A collection of special Problems on biquadratic equations in 3,4,5 & 6 variables has been treated in sections A to D respectively. Different sets of integer solutions to each of the biquadratic diophatine equations are illustrated.

Download or read book The Diophantine Frobenius Problem written by Jorge L. Ramírez Alfonsín and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2005-12-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early part of the last century, Ferdinand Georg Frobenius (1849-1917) raised he following problem, known as the Frobenius Problem (FP): given relatively prime positive integers a1,...,an, find the largest natural number (called the Frobenius number and denoted by g(a1,...,an) that is not representable as a nonnegative integer combination of a1,...,an, . At first glance FP may look deceptively specialized. Nevertheless it crops up again and again in the most unexpected places and has been extremely useful in investigating many different problems. A number of methods, from several areas of mathematics, have been used in the hope of finding a formula giving the Frobenius number and algorithms to calculate it. The main intention of this book is to highlight such methods, ideas, viewpoints and applications to a broader audience.
