On practical numbers of some special forms

In this paper we study practical numbers of some special forms. For any integers $b\ge 0$ and $c>0$, we show that if $n^2+bn+c$ is practical for some integer $n>1$, then there are infinitely many nonnegative integers $n$ with $n^2+bn+c$ practical. We also prove that there are infinitely many practical numbers of the form $q^4+2$ with $q$ practical, and that there are infinitely many practical Pythagorean triples $(a,b,c)$ with $\gcd (a,b,c)=6$ (or $\gcd (a,b,c)=4$).
