      Ist \(D=(\alpha^2+\beta^2)(\beta^2 +\delta^2), \, \alpha\delta- \beta\gamma=\pm 1\) und bedeutet \(E(x)\) die grösste in \(x\) enthaltene ganze Zahl, so findet für \[ P = E \left( \frac{2\beta\delta}{\beta^2 +\delta^2} E\surd D\right) +1 \] \[ Q= E \left ( \frac{\beta^2-\delta^2}{\beta^2+\delta^2} E\surd D\right)+1 \] die Gleichung statt \[ D=P^2+Q^2, \] wenn \(D\) nicht von der Form \(t^2+1\) ist, sonst \[ D= P^2+(Q-1)^2. \] Es schliessen sich an diese Ableitung weitere Entwickelungen über die Form, welche \(D\) gemäss der obigen Bedingung haben muss.
