On the linear diophantine problem of Frobenius in three variables.

The result was presented by Seimer at the 17. Scandinavian congress of mathematicians in Aabo (Turku), Finland in August 1976. Among the audience was Öystein Rödseth. He got interested in the method of solution by continued fractions, and managed to simplify the resulting formula. In particular, by using negative division remainders, he could replace our M-function in 2 m arguments by the minimum of two numbers only.
