The computational refinement of the 1-3-5 conjecture
The computational refinement of the 1-3-5 conjecture
Let be not divisible by , and let . A representation of as four squares is an expression
The computational refinement of the 1-3-5 conjecture. Except for , every such has a representation for which is a square and either is three times a square or is a square. Moreover, if , then there is such a representation with or ; disregarding multiples of , exactly of the numbers have a representation with or , and the remaining have one with or . This is presented as a new conjecture based on the computational results, and the supplied text gives no resolution.
