%N Positive solutions of the Pell equation x^2 - 89*y^2 = -1. Solutions x = 500*a(n).

%C The Pell equation x^2 - 89*y^2 = -1 has only proper solutions, namely x(n) = 500*a(n) and y(n) = 53*A227138(n), n >= 0.

%F a(n) = S(n, 2*500001) + S(n-1, 2*500001), n >= 0, with the Chebyshev S-polynomials (see A049310) with S(n, -1) = 0. Here 500001 = 3*166667 is the fundamental x solution of the Pell equation x^2 - 89*y^2 = +1.

%F a(n) = 2*500001*a(n-1) - a(n-2), n >= 1, with inputs a(-1) = -1 and a(0) = 1.

%F O.g.f.: (1 + x)/(1 - 2*500001*x + x^2).

%e n=0: (500*1)^2 - 89*(53*1)^2 = -1. Proper fundamental (positive) solution.

%e n=1: (500*1000003)^2 - 89*(53*1000001)^2 = -1, where 500*1000003 = 500001500 = 2^2*5^3*1000003 and 53*1000001 = 53000053 = 53*101*9901.
