The diophantine equation x^3/3+y^3+z^3-2xyz=0

Abstract

We will be presenting two theorems in this paper. The first theorem, which is a new result, is about the non-existence of integer solutions of the cubic diophantine equation. In the proof of this theorem we have used some known results from theory of binary cubic forms and the method of infinite descent, which are well understood in the purview of Elementary Number Theory(ENT). In the second theorem, we show, that the famous Fermat's Last Theorem(FLT) for exponent 3 and the first theorem are equivalent. So Theorem1 and 2 constitute an alternate proof for the non-existence of integer solutions of this famous cubic Fermat's equation. It is well known, that from L.Euler(1770) to F.J.Duarte(1944) many had given proof of FLT for exponent 3. But all proofs uses concepts, which are beyond the scope of ENT. Hence unlike other proofs the proof given here is as an ENT proof of FLT for exponent 3.

A Theory of Scales and Orbit Covers

This paper develops a formal theory of musical scales and their harmonic coverings and introduces orbit covers: coverings obtained by translating a fixed subset across a scale via a group action. Orbit covers generalize familiar constructions, such as the covering of the diatonic scale by tertian triads, and are motivated by the search for a generalized harmonic framework extending common-practice tonality. We model modes as group structures associated with pitch-class sets and scales as torsors, introducing scale covers and, in particular, orbit covers. To each orbit cover we associate a nerve complex encoding its intersection structure and associated topological invariants. We classify triadic orbit covers of heptatonic scales up to affine symmetry and nerve isomorphism. These results support a broader theory of harmonic organization with analytical and compositional applications.
