The equation y2=x3+k has been studied including Diophantus and Fermat by the various people.

This time,I solve this equation in the Diophantus way,especially parameter solutions.



            1.  y2=x3+16(9a2-4a+4)(a-1)2 has four solutions.

                This equation has very interesting property.

                (x1,y1)=(4a, 8-12a+12a2 )
                (x2,y2)=(4a-4, 12a(a-1) )
                (x3,y3)=(8-8a, 12(a-1)(a-2) )
                (x4,y4)=(4a2-4a, 4(a-1)(2a2-a+2) )
