摘要
We prove that the equation x(2) - kxy+y(2) + x = 0 with k is an element of N+ has an infinite number of positive integer solutions x and y if and only if k = 3. For k = 3 the quotient x/y is asymptotically equal to (3 + root5)/2 or (3 - root5)/2. Results of the paper are based on data obtained via Computer Algebra System (DERIVE 5). Some DERIVE procedures presented in the paper made it possible to discover interesting regularities concerning simple continued fractions of certain numbers. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
