Abstract
Let be a given integer. In this paper, we show that there only finitely many positive integers which are not squares, such that the Pell equation has two positive integer solutions with the property that their -coordinates are base -repdigits. Recall that a base -repdigit is a positive integer all whose digits have the same value when written in base . We also give an upper bound on the largest such in terms of .
