Integer solutions of the equation \(y^2 = Ax^4 + B\)
Journal of integer sequences, Tome 18 (2015) no. 4
Let $A \in {k^{2}(k^{2}l^{2} + 1), 4k^{2}(k^{2}(2l - 1)^{2} + 1)}$, where $k$ and $l$ are positive integers, and let $B$ be a non-zero square-free integer such that $|B| \sqrt A$. In this paper we determine all the possible integer solutions of the equation $y^{2} = Ax^{4} + B$ by using terms of Lucas sequences of the form $mx^{2}$.
