Diophantine Equation, Sums of Three Squares

Abstract

Let n,x,y,z be any given integers. The study of n for which n = x2 +y2 + z2 is a very long-standing problem. Recent survey of sizeable literature shows that many researchers have made some progress to come up with algorithms of decomposing integers into sums of three squares. On the other hand, available results on integer representation as sums of three square is still very minimal. If a,b,c,d,k,m,n,u,v and w are any non-negative integers, this study determines the sum of three-square formula of the form abcd+ka2+ma+n = u2 +v2 +w2 and establishes its applications to various cases.
