Number of lattice points on spheres with center not at the origin
Let $k\ge1$. It is known that the number of lattice points on the $k$-sphere $S^k(0)$ (center at the origin, radius $R$), namely the size of $\mathbb{Z}^{k+1}\cap S^k(0)$, is bounded by $R^{k-1+\...

Parity and number of squares taken by polynomials in a range?
I have a polynomial $f(x)=a^2x^2+bx+c\in\mathbb Z[x]$ with $f(x)$ not a constant times a square and $abc\neq0$ and I want to know how many $x$ between $-a$ and $a$ the polynomial is a perfect square. ...

What is the lattice point distribution over binary quadratic forms?
Let $f(x,y)=x^2+ny^2$ be the binary quadratic form of interest and consider the lattice points $S=\{ (x,y,f(x,y)) \in \mathbb{N}^3 \}$.
For simplicity, we keep things only on quadrant I of the ...
