We study new identities related to the sums of adjacent terms in the Pell sequence, defined by $P_{n} := 2P_{n-1}+P_{n-2}$ for $ n\geq 2$ and $P_{0}=0, P_{1}=1$, and generalize these identities for many similar sequences. We prove that the…

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…

In this paper, we investigate the generalized Pell sequence, the generalized complex Pell sequence and the generalized dual Pell sequence using the Pell numbers. We obtain special cases of these sequences. Furthermore, we give recurrence…

We consider the greatest common divisor (GCD) of all sums of $k$ consecutive terms of a sequence $(S_n)_{n\geq 0}$ where the terms $S_n$ come from exactly one of following six well-known sequences' terms: Pell $P_n$, associated Pell $Q_n$,…

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…

Let $(X_{k})_{k\geq 1}$ and $(Y_k)_{k\geq 1}$ be the sequence of $X$ and $Y$-coordinates of the positive integer solutions $(x, y)$ of the equation $x^2 - dy^2 = t$. In this paper we completely describe those recurrence sequences such that…

Square roots $s$ of sums of $M$ consecutive integer squares starting from $a^{2}\geq1$ are integers if $M\equiv0,9,24$ or $33(mod\,72)$; or $M\equiv1,2$ or $16(mod\,24)$; or $M\equiv11(mod\,12)$ and cannot be integers if $M\equiv3,5,6,7,8$…

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 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…

We derive several identities for arbitrary homogeneous second order recurrence sequences with constant coefficients. The results are then applied to present a unified study of six well known integer sequences, namely the Fibonacci sequence,…

We define a class of sequences ${a_n}$ by $a_1=a$ and $a_{n+1}=P(a_n)$, where $P(x)$ is a polynomial with real coefficients. We then find out for which values $a$ and for which polynomials $P(x)$ these sequences will be constant after a…

We study multiplicative dependence between terms of the $k$-generalized Pell sequence $(P_n^{(k)})_{n\ge 2-k}$, defined by the linear recurrence \[ P_n^{(k)} = 2P_{n-1}^{(k)} + P_{n-2}^{(k)} + \dots + P_{n-k}^{(k)}, \] with initial…

P(n,s) denotes the number of permutations of 1,2,...n that have exactly s sequences. Canfield and Wilf [math.CO/0609704] recently showed that P(n,s) can be written as a sum of s polynomials in n. We determine these polynomials explicitly…

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…

A generalization of the well-known Fibonacci sequence is the $k$-Fibonacci sequence with some fixed integer $k\ge 2$. The first $k$ terms of this sequence are $0,0, \ldots, 1$, and each term afterwards is the sum of the preceding $k$ terms.…

This short paper is concerned with polynomial Pell equations \[P^2-DQ^2=1,\] with $P,Q,D\in\Bbb C[X]$ and ${deg}(D)=2$. The main result shows that the polynomials $P$ and $Q$ are closely related to Chebyshev polynomials. We then investigate…

For an integer $k \geq 2$, let $\{ P_{n}^{(k)} \}_{n}$ be the $k$-generalized Pell sequence which starts with $0, \dots,0,1$($k$ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of $k$ preceding terms. In this paper, we find all the solutions of…

In this paper we extend the notion of Melham sum to the Pell and Pell-Lucas sequences. While the proofs of general statements rely on the binomial theorem, we prove some spacial cases by the known Pell identities. We also give extensions of…

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…
