IfRis a ring, the structure of the projective special linear groupPSL2(R)is used to investigate the existence of sum of square properties holding inR. Rings which satisfy Fermat's two-square theorem are called sum of squares rings and have been studied previously. The present study considers a related property called square property one. It is shown that this holds in an infinite class of rings which includes the integers, polynomial rings over many fields andZpnwherePis a prime such that−3is not a squaremodp. Finally, it is shown that the class of sum of squares rings and the class satisfying square property one are non-coincidental.
