Abstract:For given positive integers a 1 , a 2 , . . . , a k with gcd(a 1 , a 2 , . . . , a k ) = 1, consider the number of nonnegative solutions (x 1 , x 2 , . . . , x k ) of the linear equation a 1 x 1 + a 2 x 2 + • • • + a k x k = n for a positive integer n. For a given nonnegative integer p, there is a maximum n such that the number of nonnegative integer solutions is at most p, and it is very attractive to find the explicit formula of the maximum n. In fact, when p = 0, such a problem of finding the maximum intege… Show more
