We study a generalization of Pell's equation, whose coefficients are certain algebraic integers. Let $X_0=0$ and $X_n=\sqrt{2+X_{n-1}}$ for each $n\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 1}$. We study the $\mathbb{Z}[X_{n-1}]$-solutions of the equation…
Using an elementary identity, we prove that for infinitely many polynomials $P(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ of fourth degree, the equation $\prod\limits_{k=1}^{n}P(k)=y^2$ has finitely many solutions in $\mathbb{Z}$. We also give an example of a…
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…
We study the quadratic integral points-that is, (S-)integral points defined over any extension of degree two of the base field-on a curve defined in P_3 by a system of two Pell equations. Such points belong to three families explicitly…
In this paper, we prove that a quartic polynomial solution of the eikonal equation $|\nabla_x f|^2=16x^{6}$ in $\R{n}$ is either an isoparametric polynomial or congruent to a polynomial $f=(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i^2)^2-8(\sum_{i=1}^k…
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…
Let $f(x)$ be a monic polynomial in $\dZ[x]$ with no rational roots but with roots in $\dQ_p$ for all $p$, or equivalently, with roots mod $n$ for all $n$. It is known that $f(x)$ cannot be irreducible but can be a product of two or more…
In this paper we consider generalized monomial functions $f, g\colon \mathbb{F}\to \mathbb{C}$ (of possibly different degree) that also fulfill \[ f(P(x))= Q(g(x)) \qquad \left(x\in \mathbb{F}\right), \] where $P\in \mathbb{F}[x]$ and $Q\in…
In this study, we find continued fraction expansion of sqrt(d) when d=a^2+2a where a is positive integer. We consider the integer solutions of the Pell equation x^2-(a^2+2a)y^2=N when N={-1,+1,-4,+4}. We formulate the n-th solution…
We extend the polynomial Pell's equation satisfied by univariate Chebyshev polynomials on [--1, 1] from one variable to several variables, using orthogonal polynomials on regular domains that include cubes, balls, and simplexes of arbitrary…
Some interesting (periodic!) solutions of certain systems of $4$ nonlinear Ordinary Differential Equations $dx_{n}\left( t\right) /dt=P_{2}^{\left( n\right) }\left[ x_{m}\left( t\right) \right] /\left[ x_{1}\left( t\right) +x_{2}\left(…
Suppose that $f(x)=x^4+Ax^3+Bx^2+Ax+1\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$. We say that $f(x)$ is monogenic if $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$ and $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\theta^3\}$ is a basis for the ring of integers of ${\mathbb Q}(\theta)$, where…
We consider the equation $P(Q(x_1,\ldots,x_\nu))=Q(P(x_1),\ldots,P(x_\nu))$ in polynomials over the field of complex numbers and prove that if ${\rm deg}(P)>1$, then it is only solvable in polynomials that are affinely conjugate to…
Cubic and quartic non-autonomous differential equations with continuous piecewise linear coefficients are considered. The main concern is to find the maximum possible multiplicity of periodic solutions. For many classes, we show that the…
In this paper, we prove that there does not exist $F \in \mathbb{Q}[x,y]$ of degree $4$ such that $F(\mathbb{Z}^2) = \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$. In particular, this answers a question by John S. Lew and Bjorn Poonen for quartic polynomials.
In this paper, we classify, up to three possible exceptions, all monic, post-critically finite quadratic polynomials $f(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ with an iterate reducible module every prime, but all of whose iterates are irreducible over…
In the classical theory, a famous by-product of the continued fraction expansion of quadratic irrational numbers $\sqrt{D}$ is the solution to Pell's equation for $D$. It is well-known that, once an integer solution to Pell's equation…
All integer solutions $\left(M,a,c\right)$ to the problem of the sums of $M$ consecutive cubed integers $\left(a+i\right)^{3}$ ($a>1$, $0\leq i\leq M-1$) equaling squared integers $c^{2}$ are found by decomposing the product of the…
In 1922 Ritt described polynomial solutions of the functional equation P(f)=Q(g). In this paper we describe solutions of the equation above in the case when P,Q are polynomials while f,g are allowed to be arbitrary entire functions. In…
