Right triangles with algebraic sides and elliptic curves over number fields

Given any positive integer n, we prove the existence of infinitely many right triangles with area n and side lengths in certain number fields. This generalizes the famous congruent number problem. The proof allows the explicit construction of these triangles; for this purpose we find for any positive integer n an explicit cubic number field Q(λ) (depending on n) and an explicit point P_λof infinite order in the Mordell-Weil group of the elliptic curve Y^2=X^3-n^2*X over Q(λ).

Arithmetic progressions of four squares over quadratic fields

Let d be a squarefree integer. Does there exist four squares in arithmetic progression over Q(sqrt{d})? We shall give a partial answer to this question, depending on the value of d. In the affirmative case, we construct explicit arithmetic progressions consisting of four squares over Q(sqrt{d}).
