Find in finitely many triples (a, b, c) of positive integers such that a, b, c are
in arithmetic progression and such that ab + 1, bc + 1, and ca + 1 are perfect squares.
Show that if x, y, z are positive integers, then (xy + 1)(yz + 1)(zx + 1) is a perfect square if
and only if xy + 1, yz + 1, zx + 1 are all perfect squares.
Let be a polynomial with integral
coefficients. Let a , b , c be three distinct integers such
that p(a) = p(b) = p(c) = - 1. Find the number of integral roots
of p(x).
