On Diophantine quintuple conjecture (Q464688)

An \(m\)-tuple \((a_1,\dots,a_m)\) of positive distinct integers is called Diophantine if \[ a_ia_j+1=\square \qquad 1\leq i<j\leq m. \] A folklore conjecture states that no Diophantine quintuple exists. However, \textit{A. Dujella} [J. Reine Angew. Math. 566, 183--214 (2004; Zbl 1037.11019)] showed that no Diophantine sextuple exists and at most finitely many Diophantine quintuples. In particular Dujella proved that if \((a,b,c,d,e)\) is a Diophantine quintuple, with \(a<b<c<d<e\), then \(d<10^{2171}\). This bound for \(d\) has been decreased over the years by several authors. In this paper a new upper bound is established, namely \(d<10^{74}\) improving the former bound \(d<10^{94}\) [\textit{C. Elsholtz} et al., Monatsh. Math. 175, No. 2, 227--239 (2014; Zbl 1347.11030)].
