arXiv:1304.1043

Abstract

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 (x_{n},y_{n}) by using the continued fraction expansion. We also formulate the n-th solution (x_{n},y_{n}) via the generalized Fibonacci and Lucas sequences.
