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…
In the proof of the irrationality of $\zeta(3)$ and $\zeta(2)$, Ap\'ery defined two integer sequences through $3$-term recurrences, which are known as the famous Ap\'ery numbers. Zagier, Almkvist--Zudilin and Cooper successively introduced…
This article deals with the history of certain aspects of the Pell equation X$^2$ - D y$^2$ = 4. We briefly discuss explicit units, and then study the history of Legendre's equations ax$^2$ - b y$^2$ = 4 with ab=D.
We introduce and study the generalized cyclotomic polynomials $\Phi_{A,S,n}(x)$ associated with a regular system $A$ of divisors and an arbitrary set $S$ of positive integers. We show that all of these polynomials have integer coefficients,…
Through the following, we establish the conditions which allow us to express recursive sequences of real numbers, enumerated through the recurrence relation a_{n+1} = Aa_n + Ba_{n-1}, by means of algebraic equations in two variables of…
In this paper, generalized Bell polynomials $(\Be_n^\phi)_n$ associated to a sequence of real numbers $\phi=(\phi_i)_{i=1}^\infty$ are introduced. Bell polynomials correspond to $\phi_i=0$, $i\ge 1$. We prove that when $\phi_i\ge 0$, $i\ge…

Using the representation of numbers, the methods of decreasing the number of calculation steps for Pell's equation are developed. The formulae relating the natural solution x0 of Pell's equation for A0 with the infinite number of minimal…
We introduce a new four-parameters sequence that simultaneously generalizes some well-known integer sequences, including Fibonacci, Padovan, Jacobsthatl, Pell, and Lucas numbers. Combinatorial interpretations are discussed and many…
The OEIS sequence A051221 consists of nonnegative integers of the form 10^x - y^2. The known values are those less than or equal to 2000 with x <= 7, and it is conjectured that no new values in this range appear for x >= 8. In this paper,…
The generalized Fibonacci sequences are sequences $\{f_n\}$ which satisfy the recurrence $f_n(s, t) = sf_{n - 1}(s, t) + tf_{n - 2}(s, t)$ ($s, t \in \mathbb{Z}$) with initial conditions $f_0(s, t) = 0$ and $f_1(s, t) = 1$. In a recent…
The sequence a_1,...,a_m is a common subsequence in the set of permutations S = {p_1,...,p_k} on [n] if it is a subsequence of p_i(1),...,p_i(n) and p_j(1),...,p_j(n) for some distinct p_i, p_j in S. Recently, Beame and Huynh-Ngoc (2008)…
We present a multi-parameter non-constant-invariant class of Abel ordinary differential equations with the following remarkable features. This one class is shown to unify, that is, contain as particular cases, all the integrable classes…
In this paper, we construct Pell matrices, analogous to Fibonacci matrices, to study algebraic properties of Pell numbers via linear algebra. This framework yields identities involving the trace, inverse, and determinant, as well as matrix…

The aim of this expository article is twofold. The first is to introduce several polynomials of one variable as well as two variables defined on the positive integers with values as congruent numbers. The second is to present connections…
For each integer $x$, the $x$-th generalized pentagonal number is denoted by $P_5(x)=(3x^2-x)/2$. Given odd positive integers $a,b,c$ and non-negative integers $r,s$, we employ the theory of ternary quadratic forms to determine when the sum…

A nondecreasing sequence of positive integers is $(\alpha,\beta)$-Conolly, or Conolly-like for short, if for every positive integer $m$ the number of times that $m$ occurs in the sequence is $\alpha + \beta r_m$, where $r_m$ is $1$ plus the…
