On Solving Diophantine Equations by Real Matrix Manipulation
This note presents simple algorithms for obtaining the solutions of the Diophantine equation. Our methods can produce classes of all solutions with lower degree than a specified number. The previous algorithms involve some troublesome computations, e.g., the calculation of both the controllability indexes and the observability indexes or the solution of a pole assignment problem, etc.. Our contribution is that our algorithm requires only basic matrix operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and inversion of given real matrices. In addition, by solving simple linear equations, the class of all minimum degree solutions can be given. Therefore tile computational efforts are reduced compared with previous algorithms.
