| Abstract: | Abstract Equivalence classes of solutions of the Diophantine equation a 2 + m b 2 = c 2 form an infinitely generated abelian group G m , where m is a fixed square-free positive integer. Solutions of Pell's equation x 2 − m y 2 = 1 generate a subgroup P m of G m. We prove that P m and G m / P m have infinite rank for all m > 1. We also give several examples of m for which G m / P m has nontrivial torsion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
