One Interesting Family of Diophantine Triplets
Deshpande, M. N.
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v33 n2 p253-256 Mar 2002
In this note properties of two sequences generated by the recurrence relation G[subscript n] +2 = 4 G[subscript n] +1 - G[subscript n], are studied. It is shown that one of the sequences leads to a family of diophantine triplets. Some interesting properties of these sequences are also established.
