Abstract

In this paper, we explore the relationship between repdigits and associated Pell numbers, specifically focusing on two main aspects: expressing repdigits as the difference of two associated Pell numbers, and identifying which associated Pell numbers can be represented as the difference of two repdigits. Additionally, we investigate all associated Pell numbers which are concatenation of three repdigits. Our proof utilizes Baker's theory on linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers, along with the Baker-Davenport reduction technique. The computations were carried out with the help of a simple computer program in \it Mathematica.
