Three term recurrence and residue completeness

Number Theory 2013-07-30 v1

Abstract

We study the three term recurrence modulo m. In particular, we prove that Pell numbers modulo m is residue complete if and only m is 2, a power of 3, or a power of 5. Pell-Lucas numbers modulo m is residue complete if and only if m is a power of 3.
