Let KK be a number field. State Dirichlet's unit theorem, defining all the terms you use, and what it implies for a quadratic field Q(d)\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d}), where d0,1d \neq 0,1 is a square-free integer.

Find a fundamental unit of Q(26)\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{26}).

Find all integral solutions (x,y)(x, y) of the equation x226y2=±10x^{2}-26 y^{2}=\pm 10.
