%N Nonnegative solutions of the Pell equation x^2 - 101*y^2 = +1. Solutions x = a(n).

%C The Pell equation x^2 - 101*y^2 = +1 has only proper solutions, namely x(n) = a(n) and y(n) = 20*A097740(n), n>= 0.

%F a(n) = (S(n, 2*201) - S(n-2, 2*201))/2 = T(n, 201) with the Chebyshev S- and T-polynomials (see A049310 and A053120, respectively). S(n, -2) = -1, S(n, -1) = 0. For S(n, 2*201) see A097740.

%F a(n) = 2*201*a(n-1) - a(n-2), n >= 1, with input a(-1) = 201 and a(0) = 1.

%F O.g.f.: (1 - 201*x)/(1 - 2*201*x + x^2).

%e n=0: 1^2 - 101*0^2 = +1 (a proper, but not a positive solution),

%e n=1: 201^2 - 101*(20*1)^2 = +1, where 20 is the positive fundamental y-solution.

%e n=2: 80801^2 - 101*(20*402)^2 = +1, where 80801 = 7^2*17*97 and 20*402 = 8040 = 2^3*3*5*67.
