A four-term representation by pentagonal quadratic polynomials
A four-term representation by pentagonal quadratic polynomials
Let denote the nonnegative integers. Four-term pentagonal representation conjecture. Every integer can be written as
with .
This is an explicit eventual universality claim analogous to Lagrange’s four-square theorem, with nonnegative variables and two signs in the linear terms. No resolution is stated in the source.
