Streszczenie
Let $m\in {\mathbb {Z}}_{>0}$ and $a,q\in {\mathbb {Q}}$. Denote by $\mathcal {AP}_{m}(a,q)$ the set of rational numbers $d$ such that $a,a+q,\dots ,a+(m-1)q$ form an arithmetic progression in the Edwards curve $E_d : x^2+y^2=1+dx^2 y^2$. We study the set $\mathcal {AP}_{m}(a,q)$ and we parametrize it by the rational points of an algebraic curve.
