Abstract. A set of Gaussian integers is said to have the
property D(z) if the product of its any two distinct
elements increased by z is a square of a Gaussian integer.
In this paper it is proved that if a Gaussain integer z
is not representable as a difference of the squares of two
Gaussian integers, then there does not exist a quadruple with
the property D(z), but if z is representable
as a difference of two squares and if z
{
2,
1
2i,
4i },
then there exists at least one quadruple with the property
D(z).
