New formulae are presented for the number $P(b)$ of non-negative integer solutions of a Diophantine equation $\sum_{i=1}^{n}a_ix_i=b$ and for the number $Q(b)$ of non-negative integer solutions of the Diophantine inequality…
For each positive integer $n$ it is shown how to construct a finite collection of multivariable polynomials $\{F_{i}:=F_{i}(t,X_{1},..., X_{\lfloor \frac{n+1}{2} \rfloor})\}$ such that each positive integer whose squareroot has a continued…
In this paper, we find all the solutions of the Diophantine equation $P_\ell + P_m +P_n=2^a$, in nonnegative integer variables $(n,m,\ell, a)$ where $P_k$ is the $k$-th term of the Pell sequence $\{P_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ given by $P_0=0$, $P_1=1$…
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 $3$…
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…
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…
In this paper, we consider the value distribution of the differential polynomials $f^2f^{(k)}-1$ where $k$ is a positive integer, and obtain some estimates only by the reduced counting function. Our result answers a question in (Some…
Let $(P_n)_{n\ge 0}$ and $(Q_n )_{n\ge 0}$ be the Pell and Pell-Lucas sequences. Let $b$ be a positive integer such that $b\ge 2.$ In this paper, we prove that the following two Diophantine equations $P_{n}=b^{d}P_{m}+Q_{k}$ and…
It is a generalization of Pell's equation $x^2-Dy^2=0$. Here, we show that: if our Diophantine equation has a particular integer solution and $ab$ is not a perfect square, then the equation has an infinite number of solutions; in this case…
For an integer $k\geq 2$, let $\{F^{(k)}_{n}\}_{n\geqslant 2-k}$ be the $ k$--generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $0, \ldots, 0,1$ (a total of $k$ terms) and for which each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms.…
We study several related problems on polynomials with integer coefficients. This includes the integer Chebyshev problem, and the Schur problems on means of algebraic numbers. We also discuss interesting applications to approximation by…
We analyze the polynomial solutions of the linear differential equation $p_2(x)y''+p_1(x)y'+p_0(x)y=0$ where $p_j(x)$ is a $j^{\rm th}$-degree polynomial. We discuss all the possible polynomial solutions and their dependence on the…
The purpose of this article is to give the solutions of the inverse problem for Pellian equations. For any rational number $0< a/b < 1$, the fundamental discriminants $D$ satisfying $(\lfloor \sqrt{D} \rfloor b + a)^2 - D b^2 = 4$ are given…
It is shown that, for each $d \geq 4$, there exists an integral convex polytope $\mathcal{P}$ of dimension $d$ such that each of the coefficients of $n, n^{2}, \ldots, n^{d-2}$ of its Ehrhart polynomial $i(\mathcal{P},n)$ is negative.
Finding polynomial solutions to Pell's equation is of interest as such solutions sometimes allow the fundamental units to be determined in an infinite class of real quadratic fields. In this paper, for each triple of positive integers…
The cardinality of the set of $D\leqslant x$ for which the fundamental solution of the Pell equation $t^2-Du^2=1$ is less than $D^{\frac{1}{2}+\alpha}$ with $\alpha\in[\frac{1}{2},1]$ is studied and certain lower bounds are obtained,…
