Let $S$ be a fixed set of primes and let $(X_{l})_{l\geq 1}$ be the $X$-coordinates of the positive integer solutions $(X, Y)$ of the Pell equation $X^2-dY^2 = 1$ corresponding to a non-square integer $d>1$. We show that there are only a…

For an integer $d\geq 2$ which is not a square, we show that there is at most one value of the positive integer $X$ participating in the Pell equation $X^2-dY^2=\pm 1$ which is a Tribonacci number, with a few exceptions that we completely…

Let $ \{P_{n}\}_{n\geq 0} $ be the sequence of Padovan numbers defined by $ P_0=0 $, $ P_1 = P_2=1$ and $ P_{n+3}= P_{n+1} +P_n$ for all $ n\geq 0 $. In this paper, we find all positive square-free integers $ d $ such that the Pell…

The Pell equation $x^2 - Dy^2 = 1$ with non-square $D > 1$ has infinitely many integer solutions, yet most research has centered on the asymptotic behavior of fundamental units as $D$ varies. By contrast, the exact distribution of solutions…

We consider the simultaneous Pell equations $$x^2 - ay^2 = 1, \qquad z^2 - bx^2 = 1,$$ where $a > b\geq 2$ are positive integers. We describe a procedure which, for any fixed $b$, either confirms that the simultaneous Pell equations have at…
