Congruent number conjecture for angles pi/3 and 2pi/3
Let be a squarefree positive integer. A positive integer is a -congruent number if it is the area of a triangle with rational side lengths and angle . The residue classes below are taken modulo .
Congruent number conjecture for angles and . If
then is a -congruent number; and if
then is a -congruent number.
The conjecture extends the classical congruent-number conjecture to these two angles. The paper gives several results for primes in the asserted residue classes, but the full statements for squarefree integers remain unproved.
