  • Abstract
    We present elementary necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the Diophantine equation x2 − Dy2 = n for any n and any nonsquare integer D > 0, using only simple continued fraction expansions. This includes a simple device for finding fundamental solutions of such equations.
