Let's analyze the problem step by step:
---
## **Given**
Find the number of integer solutions \((x, y)\) with \(1 \leq x, y \leq 10^6\) such that
\[
x^2 + y^2 \text{ is divisible by } x + y.
\]
---
## **Step 1: Express the divisibility condition**
Let \(d = x + y\). We want \(d \mid x^2 + y^2\).
But,
\[
x^2 + y^2 = (x + y)^2 - 2xy = d^2 - 2xy
\]
So,
\[
d \mid d^2 - 2xy \implies d \mid d^2 - 2xy \implies d \mid d^2 - 2xy
\]
But \(d \mid d^2\), so \(d \mid -2xy\), i.e.,
\[
d \mid 2xy
\]
---
## **Step 2: Rewriting the condition**
So, for \(1 \leq x, y \leq 10^6\), we want \(x + y \mid 2xy\).
Let \(d = x + y\). Then \(1 < d \leq 2 \times 10^6\) (since both \(x, y \geq 1\)). For each \(d\), \(x\) and \(y\) are positive integers such that \(x + y = d\) and \(x, y \geq 1\).
Then,
\[
d \mid 2xy
\]
But \(y = d - x\), so
\[
2xy = 2x(d - x) = 2dx - 2x^2
\]
So, \(d \mid 2xy \implies d \mid 2dx - 2x^2\)
But \(d \mid 2dx\) is always true, so \(d \mid -2x^2\)
i.e.,
\[
d \mid 2x^2
\]
But also \(x\) and \(y = d - x\) are both between \(1\) and \(10^6\).
---
## **Step 3: Re-expressing the solutions**
So, for each \(d\) from \(2\) to \(2 \times 10^6\), we want to count the number of \(x\) such that \(1 \leq x \leq d - 1\), \(x \leq 10^6\), \(d - x \leq 10^6\), and \(d \mid 2x^2\).
Or, equivalently, for each \(d\), count the number of \(x\) in the range \(\max(1, d - 10^6) \leq x \leq \min(10^6, d - 1)\) such that \(d \mid 2x^2\).
---
## **Step 4: Counting the solutions**
For each possible \(d\), \(d \mid 2x^2\) means \(2x^2 = k d\) for some \(k\). So \(x^2 \equiv 0 \pmod{d/\gcd(2, d)}\), but let's keep it as \(d \mid 2x^2\).
For each divisor \(d\), \(x\) must be such that \(d \mid 2x^2\).
But \(d \mid 2x^2 \iff \frac{2x^2}{d}\) is integer, i.e., \(x^2\) is a multiple of \(d/\gcd(2, d)\).
But let's do a simple substitution:
Let \(g = \gcd(2, d)\), so \(d = g \cdot m\), where \(m\) is coprime to \(2\).
Then \(d \mid 2x^2 \implies m \mid x^2\), since \(g \mid 2\).
So for each \(d\), the number of \(x\) in the range such that \(m \mid x^2\).
But \(m\) is square-free (since it is coprime to 2). The number of \(x \leq N\) such that \(m \mid x^2\) is equal to the number of \(x\) such that every prime dividing \(m\) divides \(x\). That is, \(x\) must be divisible by all primes dividing \(m\).
So, if \(m = p_1 p_2 \cdots p_k\), then \(x\) must be divisible by \(p_1 p_2 \cdots p_k = m\). So \(x = m t\), for integer \(t\).
So \(x = m t\), and \(x \leq 10^6\).
But also \(x \leq d - 1\), and \(x \geq \max(1, d - 10^6)\).
---
## **Step 5: Final formula**
For each \(d\) from \(2\) to \(2 \times 10^6\):
- Let \(g = \gcd(2, d)\), \(m = d / g\)
- \(x = m t\), for integer \(t\)
- \(x\) must be in \(\max(1, d - 10^6) \leq x \leq \min(10^6, d - 1)\)
So for each \(d\), the number of \(x\) is equal to the number of integers \(t\) such that
\[
\max(1, d - 10^6) \leq m t \leq \min(10^6, d - 1)
\]
i.e.
\[
\left\lceil \frac{\max(1, d - 10^6)}{m} \right\rceil \leq t \leq \left\lfloor \frac{\min(10^6, d - 1)}{m} \right\rfloor
\]
The total number of solutions is the sum over all \(d\) from \(2\) to \(2 \times 10^6\) of the number of integers \(t\) in this range.
---
## **Summary**
**The number of integer solutions \((x, y)\) is:**
\[
\boxed{
\sum_{d=2}^{2 \times 10^6} \left(
\max\left(
0,
\left\lfloor \dfrac{\min(10^6, d-1)}{m} \right\rfloor
-
\left\lceil \dfrac{\max(1, d-10^6)}{m} \right\rceil
+ 1
\right)
\right)
}
\]
where \(m = \dfrac{d}{\gcd(2, d)}\).
---
### **Key Ideas:**
- Reduce the divisibility to \(x + y \mid 2xy\).
- Substitute \(d = x + y\), \(y = d - x\).
- Reduce to finding \(x\) such that \(d \mid 2x^2\).
- \(d = g \cdot m\), \(g = \gcd(2, d)\), \(m\) coprime to 2, \(x = m t\).
- Bounds on \(x\) from \(1 \leq x \leq 10^6\), \(1 \leq y \leq 10^6\), \(x + y = d\).
- Sum over all \(d\).
---
If you want the **exact value**, it's best computed with a program, since the sum runs over \(2 \times 10^6\) values. But the reasoning above gives you the formula!
