On shifted products which are powers
Katalin Gyarmati, Andràs Sárközy, Cameron L. Stewart · Mathematika · 2002
Fermat gave the first example of a set of four positive integers {a1, a2, a3, a4} with the property that aiaj + 1 is a square for 1 ≤ i < j ≤ 4. His example was {1, 3, 8, 120}. Baker and Davenport [1] proved that the example could not be extended to a set of 5 positive integers such that the product of any two of them plus one is a square. Kangasabapathy
