On some general solutions of the simple Pell equation

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

Two theorems are demonstrated giving analytical expressions of the fundamental solutions of the Pell equation X2−DY2=1X^{2}-DY^{2}=1 found by the method of continued fractions for two squarefree polynomial expressions of radicands of Richaud-Degert type DD of the form D=(f(u))2±2αnD=\left(f\left(u\right)\right)^{2}\pm2^αn, where DD, n>0n>0, α≥0,∈Zα\geq0,\in\mathbb{Z}, and f(u)>0,∈Zf\left(u\right)>0,\in\mathbb{Z}, any polynomial function of u∈Zu\in\mathbb{Z} such that f(u)≡0(mod (2α−1n))f\left(u\right)\equiv0\left(mod\,\left(2^{α-1}n\right)\right) or f(u)≡(2α−2n)(mod (2α−1n))f\left(u\right)\equiv\left(2^{α-2}n\right)\left(mod\,\left(2^{α-1}n\right)\right).
