A generalization of the question of Sierpiński on geometric progressions
Journal of integer sequences, Tome 13 (2010) no. 3
In this paper we prove that there is no geometric progression that contains four distinct integers of the form $Dm^{2} + C, D,$m $\in $ N, $C = \pm 1 \pm 2, \pm $ 4.
Keywords:
quadratic Diophantine equation, minimal positive solution, triangular numbers, geometric progression
