Diophantine equation Updated +Created
Polynomial (possibly a multivariate polynomial) with integer coefficients.
Sometimes systems of Diophantine equations are considered.
Problems generally involve finding integer solutions to the equations, notably determining if any solution exists, and if infinitely solutions exist.
The general problem is known to be undecidable: Hilbert's tenth problem.
The Pythagorean triples, and its generalization Fermat's last theorem, are the quintessential examples.
Fermat's last theorem Updated +Created
A generalization of the Pythagorean triple infinity question.
