   Abstract

   In this paper, we discuss the extensibility of Diophantine D(-1) pairs {a, b}, where a,b are positive integers in the ring Z[\\sqrt{-k}], k>0. We prove that families of such D(-1)-pairs with b=p^i q^j, where p,q are different odd primes and i,j are positive integers cannot be extended to quadruples in certain rings Z[\\sqrt{-k}], where k depends on p^i, q^i and a. Further, we present the result on non-existence of D(-1)-quintuples of a specific form in certain imaginary quadratic rings.

   Abstract

   Let $p$ be a prime such that $4p^2+1$ is also a prime. In this paper, we prove that the $D(-1)$-set ${1,4p^2+1,1-p}$ cannot be extended with the forth element $d$ such that the product of any two distinct elements of the new set decreased by $1$ is a square in the ring $Z[sqrt{-p}]$.

   Abstract

   In this paper, we consider the solvability of the Pellian equation x^2-(d^2+1)y^2=-m, in cases d=n^k, m=n^{2l-1}, where k,l are positive integers, n is a composite positive integer and d=pq, m=pq^2, p,q are primes. We use the obtained results to prove results on the extendibility of some D(-1)-pairs to quadruples in the ring Z[sqrt{-t}], with t>0.

   Abstract

   In this paper, we prove that the equation x^2 − (p^(2k+2) + 1)y^2 = −p^(2l+1), l∈{0, 1, . . . , k}, k ≥ 0, where p is an odd prime number, is not solvable in positive integers x and y. By combining that result with other known results on the existence of Diophantine quadruples, we are able to prove results on the extensibility of some D(−1)-pairs to quadruples in the ring Z[√−t], t > 0.

   Abstract

   In this paper, we study the extendibility of a D(-1)-pair {1,p}, where p is a Fermat prime, to a D(-1)-quadruple in Z[sqrt{-t}], t>0.

   Abstract

   The possible torsion groups of elliptic curves induced by Diophan- tine triples over quadratic fields, which do not appear over Q, are Z/2Z × Z/10Z, Z/2Z × Z/12Z and Z/4Z × Z/4Z. In this paper, we show that all these torsion groups indeed appear over some quadratic field. Moreover, we prove that there are infinitely many Diophantine triples over quadratic fields which induce elliptic curves with these tor- sion groups.

   Abstract

   There are 26 possibilities for the torsion group of elliptic curves defined over quadratic number fields. We present examples of high rank elliptic curves with given torsion group which give the current records for most of the torsion groups. In particular, we show that for each possible torsion group, except maybe for Z/15Z, there exist an elliptic curve over some quadratic field with this torsion group and with rank >= 2.

   Abstract

   For each of the torsion groups Z/2ZxZ/10Z, Z/2ZxZ/12Z, Z/15Z we find the quadratic field with the smallest absolute value of its discriminant such that there exists an elliptic curve with that torsion and positive rank. For the torsion groups Z/11Z, Z/14Z we solve the analogous problem after assuming the Parity conjecture.

   Abstract

   We construct elliptic curves over the field Q(\sqrt{-3}) with torsion group Z/3Z x Z/3Z and ranks equal to 7 and an elliptic curve over the same field with torsion group Z/3Z x Z/6Z and rank equal to 6.

    Abstract

    We construct an elliptic curve over Q(i) with torsion group Z/4Z * Z/4Z and rank equal to 7 and a family of elliptic curves with the same torsion group and rank >= 2.

   Abstract

   This handbook has been developed in the context of the European Erasmus+ project GAMMA (GAMe-based learning in MAthematics). The project aims to develop educational materials that will be useful for mathematics teachers who want to use game-based learning (GBL) founded on digital technology. The handbook provides background knowledge on (digital) game-based learning, but also examples and practical guidance for applications in mathematics education. More information about the project, learning materials and outputs can be found online on the project website: http://www.project-gamma.eu/.
