Non-negative Integer
Solutions of
a1k
+ a2k + a3k+
a4k = b1k
+ b2k + b3k
+ b4k
( k = 1, 2, 3 )
- L.E.Dickson gave the general solution for this
system in 1910's.[7] [9]
Numerial exampls are
- [ 0, 4, 7, 11 ] = [ 1, 2, 9, 10 ]
- [ 1, 8, 10, 17 ] = [ 2, 5, 13, 16 ]
- [ 0, 9, 11, 22 ] = [ 2, 4, 15, 21 ]
- Method for symmetric solution chain of this type
was obtained by A.Golden in 1940's.[5]
[3]
- [ 1, 79, 105, 183 ] = [ 3, 69, 115, 181 ] = [
7, 57, 127, 177 ] = [ 13, 45, 139, 171 ] = [ 27, 27, 157, 157 ]
- Non-symmetric solution chain of this type was
first obtained by Chen Shuwen in 1997.
- [ 0, 87, 93, 214 ] = [ 9, 52, 123, 210 ] = [
24, 30, 133, 207 ]
