%N Positive solutions y/5^3 of the Pell equation x^2 - 73*y^2 = -1.

%C The proper positive solutions of the Pell equation x^2 - 73*y^2 = -1 start with the fundamental solution (x_0, y_0) = (1068, 125). 1068 = 2^2*3*89, 125 = 5^3. The solutions x(n)/1068 = A227039(n), n>=0.

%F a(n) = S(n,4562498) - S(n-1,4562498), n >= 0, with the Chebyshev S-polynomials (A049310), with S(-1,x) = 0. 4562498 = 2*2281249 is the fundamental (improper) u solution of u^2 - 73*v^3 = +4 (together with the positive v = 53400 = 2*26700).

%F O.g.f.: (1 - x)/(1 - 4562498*x + x^2).

%F a(n) = 4562498*a(n-1) - a(n-2), n >= 1, a(-1) = 1, a(0) = 1.

%e n=0: (2^2*3*89*1)^2 - 73*(5^3*1)^2 = -1.

%e n=1: (2^2*3*89*4562499)^2 - 73*(5^3*4562497)^2 = -1. 4562499 = 3*67*22699, 4562497 is prime.
