Abstract

This short paper is concerned with polynomial Pell equations P2-DQ2=1, with P,Q,D∈\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 the existence of such polynomials in \Bbb Z[X] specializing to fixed solutions of ordinary Pell equations over the integers.
