On the x-coordinates of Pell equations which are k-generalized Fibonacci numbers
Original language description
For an integer k >= 2, let {F-n(k)}(n >= 2-k) be the k-generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with 0, ..., 0, 1 (a total of k terms) and for which each term afterwards is the sum of the k preceding terms. In this paper, for an integer d >= 2 which is square-free, we show that there is at most one value of the positive integer x participating in the Pell equation x(2) - dy(2) = +/- 1, which is a k-generalized Fibonacci number, with a couple of parametric exceptions which we completely characterize. This paper extends previous work from [18] for the case k = 2 and [17] for the case k = 3.
