x=y⇒  x^2 +x+1=a^2   x^2 <x^2 +x+1=a^2 <(x+1)^2 ..impossibl  x<y⇒⇒x≤y+1  y^2 <y^2 +4x+3<y^2 +4y+4=(y+2)^2   ⇒y^2 +4x+3=(y+1)^2 =y^2 +2y+1  y=2x+1  x^2 +y+1=(x+1)^2 +1=a^2 ⇒1+(x+1)^2 =b^2   ⇒(b+x+1)=1 impossible x≥1  x>y⇒x≥y+1  ⇒x^2 <x^2 +y+1≤x^2 +x+1<(x+1)^2   impossible..

x=yx2+x+1=a2x2<x2+x+1=a2<(x+1)2..impossiblx<y⇒⇒xy+1y2<y2+4x+3<y2+4y+4=(y+2)2y2+4x+3=(y+1)2=y2+2y+1y=2x+1x2+y+1=(x+1)2+1=a21+(x+1)2=b2(b+x+1)=1impossiblex1x>yxy+1x2<x2+y+1x2+x+1<(x+1)2impossible..
