### Size of set of integers with all sums of two distinct elements giving squares

The size of such sets is bounded by some (unknown) constant, assuming a big conjecture in arithmetic geometry. The Bombieri-Lang conjecture (non-trivially via the Uniformity Conjecture, see Stanley ...

### Size of set of integers with all sums of two distinct elements giving squares

"D15 Numbers whose sums in pairs make squares" in Guy, Unsolved Problems in Number Theory, 3rd ed., credits Erdos and Leo Moser with asking "are there, for every $n$, $n$ distinct ...

### Realization of numbers as a sum of three squares via right-angled tetrahedra

These numbers are not very prevalent and the ratio in question goes to zero. Note first that by Legendre's theorem, a positive proportion of the numbers below $n$ may be expressed as a sum of three ...

### Prove $\frac{\text{Area}_1}{c_1^2}+\frac{\text{Area}_2}{c_2^2}\neq \frac{\text{Area}_3}{c_3^2}$ for all primitive Pythagorean triples

Not really an answer, but a suggestion. Did you try to solve the "wrong" problem, where at the denominators you have $c_i$, not $c_i^2$? It seems quite interesting. If we restrict ourselves to ...

### Size of set of integers with all sums of two distinct elements giving squares

This is more of a comment than an answer. This problem has been considered by many, but the problem is that the solution is reduced to solving a system of Diophantine equations of the 2nd degree. Even ...

### Integer points avoiding three on a line, four on a circle

this should be considered as a comment: There seems to be a strong relation of the "no 4 points cocircular" problem to pythagorean triples: Taking $(0,0)$ as one of the corners of Pythagorean ...

### Reference request on a pattern among nearly isosceles Pythagorean triples

$r^2+(r+1)^2=s^2$ is equivalent to $(2r+1)^2-2s^2=-1$ which in turn is equivalent to $\displaystyle{2r+1\over s}$ being an even convergent to $\sqrt2$. That's why the alternate denominators of ...

### Reference request on a pattern among nearly isosceles Pythagorean triples

You might read about the relation between Pell's equation and Pythagorean triples. There is some discussion of this at the Mathematics StackExchange, for example. The discussion over there has some ...

### Is there any formula to find number of Pythagorean triplets between two integers 2 and j, j>2?

The problem is equivalent to asking for all Pythagorean triples with bounds on the hypotenuse and a variant of that problem is treated in the article ENUMERATION OF ALL PRIMITIVE PYTHAGOREAN TRIPLES ...

### Sharply Estimating Pythagorean Triples

See my preprint. Page 12 (this has since been published, but preprint is easiest to access).
