The Pell-Fermat equation

Philippe_57721 · Math ·

It is well known that the Pell-Fermat equation x2n×y2=1 (1) has always solutions when n is not square.
But for the symetrical equation x2n×y2=1 (2), solutions are much rare.

For instance, if n100, this equation has solutions for only 20 values.

For how many n5000000, has the equation (2) solutions?
