Using a recent breakthrough of Smith, we improve the results of Fouvry and Kl\"uners on the solubility of the negative Pell equation. Let $\mathcal{D}$ denote the set of fundamental discriminants having no prime factors congruent to $3$…

We consider the negative polynomial Pell's equation $P^2(X)-D(X)Q^2(X)=-1$, where $D(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ be some fixed, monic, square-free, even degree polynomials. In this paper, we investigate the existence of polynomial solutions $P(X),…

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…

Let $a,b,c $ be any positive integers such that $c\mid ab$ and $d_i^\pm$ is a square free positive integer of the form $d_i^\pm=a^{2k} b^{2l}\pm i c^m$ where $k,l \geq m$ and $i=1,2.$ The main focus of this paper to find the fundamental…

Let $p\equiv 1\bmod 4$ be a prime number. We use a number field variant of Vinogradov's method to prove density results about the following four arithmetic invariants: (i) $16$-rank of the class group $\mathrm{Cl}(-4p)$ of the imaginary…

Let $\ k$ be a natural number and $d=k^{2}\pm 4$ or $k^{2}\pm 1$. In this paper, by using continued fraction expansion of $\sqrt{d},$ we find fundamental solution of the equations $x^{2}-dy^{2}=\pm 1$ and we get all positive integer…

We consider the error term of the asymptotic formula for the number of pairs of $k$-free integers up to $x$. Our error term improves results by Heath-Brown, Brandes and Dietmann/Marmon. We then extend our results to $r$-tuples of $k$-free…

First, we consider the equation $ax^2 - by^2 + c = 0$, with $a,b \in N*$ and $c \in Z*$, which is a generalization of Pell's equation. Here, we show that: if this equation has an integer solution and $ab$ is not a perfect square, then it…

Let $b\ge 2$ be a given integer. In this paper, we show that there only finitely many positive integers $d$ which are not squares, such that the Pell equation $X^2-dY^2=1$ has two positive integer solutions $(X,Y)$ with the property that…

The polynomial Pell equation is \[P^2 - D Q^2 = 1\] where $D$ is a given integer polynomial and the solutions $P, Q$ must be integer polynomials. A classical paper of Nathanson \cite{Nat} solved it when $D(x) = x^2 + d$. We show that the…
