In 1913 Frobenius conjectured that for any positive integer m, there exists at most one pair of integers (x, y) with 0 ≤ x ≤ y ≤ m such that (x, y, m) is a solution to the Markoff equation: x 2 + y 2 + m 2 = 3xym. We show this is true if either m, 3m — 2 or 3m + 2 is prime, twice a prime or four times a prime.
