The two IP addresses and User:Aughost have been active on a common set of pages: Pythagorean tiling and Talk:Pythagorean tiling, Concentric, Pythagorean theorem. At Pythagorean tiling they have a common aim, to do with the connection between that topic and Pythagorean theorem, and their activities at that page could be described as edit warring. Furthermore, all three use a rather distinct version of English. So far this could be tolerated as an over-enthusiastic editor who frequently forgets to log in. However, in this talk page comment, User:Aughost writes I agree to insert in first section of the article, purporting to "agree" with comments previously made by the two IP editors, and so creating an appearance of consensus. If these are all the same person then this is deliberately deceptive. The user in question has been politely asked by two other editors to clarify the relationship between the various parties, ,.
