Abstract

Let d be a positive integer which is not a perfect square. In this paper, by using continued fraction expansion of √d, we find fundamental solution of some Pell equation. Moreover, we get all positive integer solutions of some Pell equations in terms of generalized Fibonacci and Lucas sequences.
