On products of consecutive arithmetic progressions. II (Q1715004)

The author gives new cases of infinitely many positive integral solutions to Diophantine equations of the form $y^2 = \prod_{i=1}^{r}\, f(x_i, k_i,d)$ where $d\ge 1$, $f(x,k,d) = \prod_{j=0}^{k-1}\,(x + j d)$, $r\ge1 $, the $k_i\ge 2$ an increasing sequence of integers, and $x_i +(k_i-1)d < x_{i+1}$. \textit{P. Erdős and R. L. Graham} posed a question about such equations in [Old and new problems and results in combinatorial number theory. Monographie No. 28 de L'Enseignement Mathématique, 128 p. (1980; Zbl 0434.10001)]. The cases found here include $(d=1, r\ge 3, k_1 = 3, k_2 = 5, k_i\ge 5 \, \text{for }\, i>2)$. The proofs are by analysis of solutions to Pell equations.
