When do integers satisfy simple quadratic relation?

$begingroup$


$$((w+x)(y+z)-(w-x)(y-z))^2=4(wy+xz)^2-4(w^2-x^2)(y^2-z^2)$$ is true and so if $(a-b)^2=4(e+f)^2-4ab$ then under what additional minimal conditions can we say $e=wy$ and $f=xz$ while $a=(w+x)(y+z)$ and $b=(w-x)(y-z)$?



At least may be $a=(ell_1w+ell_2x)(ell_3y+ell_4z)$ and $b=(ell_1'w+ell_2'x)(ell_3'y+ell_4'z)$ holds at some special $ell_1,ell_2,ell_3,ell_4,ell_1',ell_2',ell_3',ell_4'inmathbb Z$? Does it seem possible?



From $$((w+x)(y+z)-(w-x)(y-z))^2=4(wy+xz)^2-4(w^2-x^2)(y^2-z^2)$$
with $w'=(w+x)$, $z'=(y+z)$, $x'=(w-x)$ and $y'=(y-z)$ we have
$$(w'z'-x'y')^2=(w'z'+x'y')^2-4cdot w'y'cdot x'z'$$
where
$$(w'y'+x'z')=((w+x)(y-z)+(w-x)(y+z))=(2wy+2xz)$$ holds.
We seek if $(a-b)^2=4(e+f)^2-4ab$ holds then is there a connection to $w',x',y',z'$ we can infer under some additional conditions?

    It is not unambiguously clear to me what you are asking. Do you want to know when integers $a$, $b$, $e$, $f$ that satisfy $$(a-b)^2=4(e+f)^2-4ab,$$ are of the form $$e=wy,qquad f=xz,qquad a=(w+x)(y+z),qquad b=(w+x)(y+z),$$ for some integers $w$, $x$, $y$, $z$? Also, I think you mean $b=(w-x)(y-z)$?
