On this page we shall restrict ourselves to solutions in positive integers. Let us imagine one's experience on his first encounter with the following puzzle: There's Dad and Ma and Brother and Me; And she is three times Me. How old is Dad? The ordinary algebra student says, "Hey, I can't solve these equations because there are four unknowns and only three equations." Indeed there is no unique solution over the field of the real numbers, but there is a unique solution in integers. Here is another problem of the same sort: At Jimmy's school four-fifths of the students use five-sixths of the desks. What is the smallest possible number of students in the class? Take these problems to school, bring them up in math class, and watch Teacher slowly turn into a babbling idiot.

The original is (or was) here Linear Diophantine equations Problems that can be solved by finding solutions of algebraic equations in the domain of integer numbers have been known since the very beginning of mathematics. Some of these equations do not have solutions at all. For example, the equation 2x-2y=1 cannot have solutions in the domain of integer numbers since its left-hand side is always an even number. Some other equations have a finite set of solutions. For example, the equation 3x=6 has only one solution x=2. And finally, some equations have an infinite set of integer solutions. For example, let us solve the equation 7x-17y=1: x = (17y+1)/7 = 2y + (3y+1)/7. The number (3y+1)/7 must be integer, let us denote it by z.Then 3y+1=7z and x=2y+z. Thus we have arrived at the equation3y-7z=-1 having smaller coefficients than the initial one. Let us apply our "coefficient reduction method" once more: y = (7z-1)/3 = 2z + (z-1)/3.

http://encyclopedia.laborlawtalk.com/Diophantine_equation

Extractions: In mathematics , a Diophantine equation is an equation between two polynomials with integer coefficients with any number of unknowns. A Diophantine problem is given as a Diophantine equation, whose solutions are the possible assignments of integers for the unknowns for which the equation is satisfied. The word Diophantine refers to the Greek mathematician of the third century A.D., Diophantus of Alexandria , who made a study of such equations and was one of the first mathematicians to introduce symbolism into algebra . The mathematical study of Diophantine problems Diophantus initiated is now called Diophantine analysis A linear Diophantine equation is an equation between two sums of monomials of degree zero or one.

Extractions: Most of us have encountered simple equations such as 5x + 3y = 10. We know (or we may have a vague recollection from our school days) that if there are two unknown values (or 'variables'), you need two equations to be able to get a unique answer for x and y. With only one equation, absolutely any value of x can be used and a corresponding value of y can be calculated, which is not normally very useful. Diophantine equations are different. They are named after the Greek mathematician, Diophantus of Alexandria, who lived in the 3rd century and developed many of the principles of number theory. In this sort of equation, there is a restriction that all the numbers involved must be whole numbers without any fractional or decimal part. That is, they must have an integer value. Finding values of x and y that fit these conditions can be much more difficult, but as a result is usually more useful. Consider the following problem...

Extractions: Integers have gradually lost association with superstition and mysticism, but their interest for mathematicians has never waned. Among the greatest mathematicians is Diophantus of Alexandria (275 A D), an early algebraist, sometimes called `The Father of Algebra'. He left his mark on the theory of numbers, and his name - there are Diophantine numbers, and Diophantine equations. The Euclidean algorithm for finding the greatest common divisor of two integers leads to an important method for representing the quotient of two integers as a composite fraction. For example, applied to 840 and 611, the Euclidean algorithm yields the series of equations:

Extractions: Miscellaneous Diophantine Equations x + y = z , x + y = w In a letter to St. Martin and Frenicle on May 31, 1643, Fermat suggested the problem of finding a Pythagorean triple x,y,z such that x+y and x were both squares. (Actually, he asked for a rational right triangle whose hypotenuse and the sum of whose legs are squares.) He then gave the solution and stated that it was the smallest possible. Dickson describes several solution methods, including the one used by Fermat and another method by Euler, who noted that the problem is equivalent to finding two integers x,y such that x + y is a square and x + y is a fourth power. First he noted that if we set x = p q and y = 2pq then x + y is equal to the square (p + q . Then we can make p + q a square by setting p = r s and q = 2rs, which gives x + y = (r + s . This also gives Our objective now is to find rational numbers r,s such that the above expression yields a square. Its easy to find a quadratic in r and s whose square matches the first, second, and last terms, so the difference between this square and the above expression will be of the form Ars (Br+Cs), which vanishes if we set r = C and s = -B. In this case (r

Extractions: Section 1.1 from the book written by Yuri MATIYASEVICH 1.1 Diophantine equations as a decision problem Let us recall that a Diophantine equation is an equation of the form D x x m where D is a polynomial with integer coefficients. In addition to (1.1.1), Diophantine equations can be written in the more general form D L x x m D R x x m where D L and D R are again polynomials with integer coefficients. When we speak of ''an arbitrary Diophantine equation,'' we shall have in mind an equation of the form (1.1.1) since an equation of the form (1.1.2) can easily be transformed into an equation of the form (1.1.1) by transposing all the terms to the left-hand side. However, we will often use the notation (1.1.2) for particular equations if this form turns out to be easier to grasp. We shall also take another advantage of the more general form (1.1.2); namely, in this case we can demand that D L and D R are polynomials with non-negative coefficients. Diophantine equations typically have several unknowns, and we must distinguish the degree of with respect to a given unknown x i and the ( total degree of (1.1.1), i.e., the maximum, over all the monomials constituting the polynomial

To begin with, I assume that a formalized language of arithmetic , that has a finite stock of basic symbols, has been fixed. Obviously, this is assumed to include the standard logical symbols, a constant symbol (e.g. ` ') for 0, the successor symbol (e.g. ` S ' or ` '), and two function symbols (e.g. ` x ' and `+') for addition and multiplication. Next, I take the complexity , or simplicity , of a Diophantine equation to be the number of basic symbols occurring in it. Now recall that the modern ``inverted'' approach to the subject begins with a set of ``solutions'' and attempts to find a corresponding equation. Now it is indeed a very short and natural step to add that given a set of ``solutions'' one would like to find a maximally simple equation. And this will be our problem. To make it exactly defined, let us formulate it as follows: ``Given a finite set of numbers S , what is the simplest (in terms of the number of basic symbols it contains) Diophantine equation P x x x n ), such that
