I was not sure whether your question was mathematical or
computational. Usually "Pell equation" means the +1 equation and ones
says "negative Pell equation" for the -1 version. (I once wrote a
paper "On the negative Pell equation"!). As Vincent says if you have
a solution x+y*sqrt(d) to the nega
Hello,
First of all, I was not able to run your code. It fails on the line
sage: L = [list(u^i) for i in [0..3]]
Hopefully, with list(K(u^i)) instead of list(u^i) it works fine.
I did not check the reference but the units of a quadratic number
fields are the solution of Pell equation with eith
Here I attempt to solve Pell's equation with d = 1621 following the method
on page 93 of Stein's book.
But the solution produced is instead a solution of the negative Pell
equation x^2-y^2 = -1 (instead of 1).
Actually, the example on page 93 (after correcting the typo "v" to "u") has
the same
