S-Diophantine quadruples with S={2,q}\mathbf{S=\{2,q\}}

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let SS denote a set of primes and let a1,…,ama_1,\ldots,a_m be positive distinct integers. We call the mm-tuple (a1,…,am)(a_1,\ldots,a_m) an SS-Diophantine tuple if aiaj+1=si,ja_ia_j+1=s_{i,j} are SS-integers for all i≠ji\not=j. In this paper, we show that no SS-Diophantine quadruple (i.e~m=4m=4) exists if S={2,q}S=\{2,q\} with q≡3  ( mod  4)q\equiv 3\; (\bmod\, 4) or q<109q<10^9. For two arbitrary primes p,q<105p,q<10^5 we gain the same result.
