Abstract
Applying density methods of the theory of the Dirichlet L-functions, one finds an asymptotic formula for the number of solutions of the equations of the type N=ϕ(x,y)+m and N=m−ϕ(x,y), where ϕ(x,y) is a positive primitive quadratic form, while m is representable by a sum of two squares and runs through its values without repetition.
