On some properties of two simultaneous polygonal sequences
Journal of integer sequences, Tome 10 (2007) no. 10
This paper focuses on the properties of integers that are simultaneously representable as both $m$-gonal and $n$-gonal numbers. Employing hyperbolic geometry, we ascertain both lower and upper bounds on these numbers when there is a finite set of these integers. We then consider the fundamental class of solutions to a generalized Pell-Diophantine equation that relates to these integers, and derive a fast algorithm that can be used to generate them.
