Abstract

Let bb be a positive integer such that 2b102 \leq b \leq 10. In this study, we find all Pell or Pell-Lucas numbers as concatenations of two repdigits in base bb. As a corollary, it is show that the largest Pell or Pell-Lucas numbers which can be expressible as a concatenations of two repdigits in base bb are P11=5741P_{11} = 5741 and Q5=82Q_5 = 82, respectively.
