Abstract

Fermatova četvorka je skup $\{1,3,8,120 \}$ sa svojstvom da je umnožak bilo koja dva njegova elementa uvećan za 1 potpuni kvadrat. Općenito, skupovi od $m$ prirodnih brojeva s danim svojstvom nazivaju se Diofantove $m$-torke. U ovom radu pokazujemo da ako je $\{1,3,8, d \}$ Diofantova četvorka, tada je $d = 120$. To su izvorno dokazali Baker i Davenport u [1], gdje su uveli metodu osnovanu na teoriji linearnih formi u logaritmima algebarskih brojeva i metodu redukcije temeljenu na... More verižnim razlomcima.

Abstract (english)

Fermat’s quadruple is a set $\{1,3,8,120 \}$ with a property that the product of any two of its elements increased by 1 is a perfect square. Generally, sets of $m$ positive integers with the given property are called Diophantine $m$-tuples. In this thesis, we show that if $\{1,3,8, d \}$ is a Diophantine quadruple, then $d = 120$. This was originally proved by Baker and Davenport in [1], where they introduced a method based on the theory of linear forms in the logarithms of... More algebraic numbers and a reduction method based on continued fractions. Less
