abstract

In this paper, we study positive integer solutions to a generalized form of the Markov equation, given as $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + k(yz + zx + xy) = (3 + 3k)xyz$. This equation extends the classical Markov equation $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 3xyz$. We generalize the concept of Cohn triples for the classical Markov equation to the generalized Markov equations. Using this, we provide a generalization of the uniqueness theorem of Markov numbers that are prime powers.

    The paper constructs generalized discrete Markov spectra for the family of equations x² + y² + z² + k1 yz + k2 zx + k3 xy = (3 + k1 + k2 + k3) xyz, with each spectrum element realized as both a Lagrange constant of a ...

  2. Words for generalized Markov numbers

    math.NT 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Defines words ω_t via binary-tree recursion for each positive rational slope t; matrix evaluation of ω_t yields a Markov-monodromy matrix that encodes the generalized Markov number at t.

  3. Orderings of Generalized k-Markov Numbers

    math.NT 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Generalized k-Markov numbers grow monotonically along more random lines as k increases, supporting a k-analog of Frobenius' uniqueness conjecture.

  4. Orderings of k-Markov Numbers

    math.NT 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0

    k-Markov numbers satisfy Aigner's conjectures on their orderings and uniqueness properties in positive integer solutions.
