On arithmetic progressions on Edwards curves

Enrique González-Jiménez (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Let m > 0 and a,q ∈ ℚ. Denote by m ( a , q ) the set of rational numbers d such that a, a + q, ..., a + (m-1)q form an arithmetic progression in the Edwards curve E d : x ² + y ² = 1 + d x ² y ² . We study the set m ( a , q ) and we parametrize it by the rational points of an algebraic curve.

On blocks of arithmetic progressions with equal products

N. Saradha (1997)

Let f ( X ) [ X ] be a monic polynomial which is a power of a polynomial g ( X ) [ X ] of degree μ 2 and having simple real roots. For given positive integers d 1 , d 2 , , m with < m and gcd ( , m ) = 1 with μ m + 1 whenever m < 2 , we show that the equation f ( x ) f ( x + d 1 ) f ( x + ( k - 1 ) d 1 ) = f ( y ) f ( y + d 2 ) f ( y + ( m k - 1 ) d 2 ) with f ( x + j d 1 ) 0 for 0 j < k has only finitely many solutions in integers x , y and k 1 except in the case m = μ = 2 , = k = d 2 = 1 , f ( X ) = g ( X ) , x = f ( y ) + y .
