Mixed sums of squares and triangular numbers

Abstract: In this paper, we prove that for

d = 3, d o t s, 8

, every natural number can be written as

t_{x} + t_{y} + 3 t_{z} + d t_{w}

, where

x

,

y

,

z

, and

w

are nonnegative integers and

t_{k} = k (k + 1) / 2

(k = 0, 1, 2, l d o t s)

is a triangular number. Furthermore, we study mixed sums of triangular numbers and certain binary quadratic forms.
