Evidence boundary

Exact formal statement only

This page indexes Mathlib's exact solvability equivalence for Pell's equation. With d : ℤ and 0 < d, it states that an integer pair (x, y) with x ^ 2 - d * y ^ 2 = 1 and y ≠ 0 exists if and only if ¬IsSquare d. The positivity hypothesis and the nontriviality condition y ≠ 0 are essential parts of the selected declaration. It does not classify solutions, assert infinitude, identify a fundamental or least solution, supply an algorithm, or cover nonpositive d.
