“…Recently, Stoll [31] proved that Euler's extension of Fermat's quadruple to the rational quintuple is unique. In 1999, Gibbs (see [25]) found the first rational sextuple { 11 192 , 35 192 , 155 27 , 512 27 , 1235 48 , 180873 16 }, while in 2017, Dujella, Kazalicki, Mikić and Szikszai [15] proved that there exist infinitely many rational Diophantine sextuples (see also [14,16,17]). For surveys of results and conjectures concerning Diophantine m-tuples and their generalizations see [10] and [11,Sections 14.6,16.7].…”

In this paper, we consider elliptic curves induced by rational Diophantine quadruples, i.e. sets of four nonzero rationals such that the product of any two of them plus 1 is a perfect square. We show that for each of the groups Z/2Z × Z/kZ for k = 2, 4, 6, 8, there are infinitely many rational Diophantine quadruples with the property that the induced elliptic curve has this torsion group. We also construct curves with moderately large rank in each of these four cases.

“…Recently, He, Togbé and Ziegler [HTZ19] building upon the work of Dujella [Duj04] proved that there does not exist an integer Diophantine quintuple. On the other hand, it was shown in [DKMS17] that there are infinitely many rational Diophantine sextuples (for more constructions see [DK17], [DKP20] and [DKP19]), and it is not known if there are rational Diophantine septuples. For a short survey on Diophantine m-tuples see [Duj16].…”

A Diophantine m-tuple with elements in the field K is a set of m non-zero (distinct) elements of K with the property that the product of any two distinct elements is one less than a square in K. Let X : (x 2 − 1)(y 2 − 1)(z 2 − 1) = k 2 , be an affine variety over K. Its K-rational points parametrize Diophantine triples over K such that the product of the elements of the triple that corresponds to the point (x, y, z, k) ∈ X(K) is equal to k. We denote by X the projective closure of X and for a fixed k by X k a variety defined by the same equation as X.In this paper, we try to understand what can the geometry of varieties X k , X and X tell us about the arithmetic of Diophantine triples.First, we prove that the variety X is birational to P 3 which leads us to a new rational parametrization of the set of Diophantine triples.Next, specializing to finite fields, we find a Shioda-Inose structure of the K3 surface X k for a given k ∈ F × p in the prime field F p of odd characteristic, determined by an abelian surface which is a product of two elliptic curvesWe derive an explicit formula for N (p, k), the number of Diophantine triples over F p with the product of elements equal to k. Moreover, we show that the variety X admits a fibration by rational elliptic surfaces and from it we derive the formula for the number of points on X over an arbitrary finite field F q . Using it we reprove the formula for the number of Diophantine triples over F q from [DK21].Curiously, from the interplay of the two (K3 and rational) fibrations of X, we derive the formula for the second moment of the elliptic surface E k (and thus confirming Steven J. Miller's Bias conjecture in this particular case) which we describe in terms of Fourier coefficients of a rational newform generating S 4 (Γ 0 (8)).Finally, in the Appendix, Luka Lasić defines circular Diophantine m-tuples, and describes the parametrization of these sets. For m = 3 this method provides an elegant parametrization of Diophantine triples.

The first example of a rational Diophantine sextuple, the set {11/192, 35/192, 155/27, 512/27, 1235/48, 180873/16}, was found by Gibbs [23], while Dujella, Kazalicki, Mikić and Szikszai [14] recently proved that there are infinitely many rational Diophantine sextuples (see also [13,15,16]).

Rational Diophantine triples, i.e. rationals a, b, c with the property that ab+1, ac+1, bc+1 are perfect squares, are often used in construction of elliptic curves with high rank. In this paper, we consider the opposite problem and ask how small can be the rank of elliptic curves induced by rational Diophantine triples. It is easy to find rational Diophantine triples with elements with mixed signs which induce elliptic curves with rank 0. However, the problem of finding such examples of rational Diophantine triples with positive elements is much more challenging, and we will provide the first such known example.
