We study sums of powers of Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials of the form $% \sum_{n=0}^{q}F_{tsn}^{k}(x) $ and $\sum_{n=0}^{q}L_{tsn}^{k}% (x) $, where $s,t,k$ are given natural numbers, together with the corresponding alternating sums…

Let $f(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a nonconstant polynomial. Let $n, k$ and $c$ be integers such that $n\ge 1$ and $k\ge 2$. An integer $a$ is called an $f$-exunit in the ring $\mathbb{Z}_n$ of residue classes modulo $n$ if $\gcd(f(a),n)=1$. In…

We study the set $S(q)$ of residue classes $r$ modulo the Pisano period $\pi(q)$ for which $q \mid \varphi(F_m)$ for every $m \equiv r \pmod{\pi(q)}$. We prove that if $q$ is a Sophie Germain prime and $z(2q+1) \mid \pi(q)$, then $S(q)$ is…

Ozeki and Prodinger showed that the odd power sum of the first several consecutive Fibonacci numbers of even order is equal to a polynomial evaluated at certain Fibonacci number of odd order. We prove that this polynomial and its derivative…

We study generalized Fibonacci sequences $F_{n+1}=PF_n-QF_{n-1}$ with initial values $F_0=0$ and $F_1=1$. Let $P,Q$ be nonzero integers such that $P^2-4Q$ is not a perfect square. We show that if $Q=\pm 1$ then the sequence…

This article gives the structure of all projective indecomposable modules in blocks with non-cyclic defect group for $n\leq 11$, and almost all in the case of $n=12$, leaving four simple modules for $p=2$ and one simple module for $p=3$.

Let $M$ be a finitely generated module over a ring $\Lambda$. With certain mild assumptions on $\Lambda$, it is proven that $M$ is a reflexive $\Lambda$-module, once $M \cong M^{**}$ as a $\Lambda$-module.

Let $(U_{n}(P,Q) $ and $(V_{n}(P,Q) $ denote the generalized Fibonacci and Lucas sequence, respectively. In this study, we assume that $Q=1.$ We determine all indices $n$ such that $U_{n}=5\square $ and $U_{n}=5U_{m}\square $ under some…

The problem of constructing a perfect cuboid is related to a certain class of univariate polynomials with three integer parameters $a$, $b$, and $u$. Their irreducibility over the ring of integers under certain restrictions for $a$, $b$,…

We evaluate some new three parameter families of finite reciprocal sums involving Horadam numbers. We will also be able to state the results for the infinite sums. Some Fibonacci and Lucas sums will be presented as examples.

For every monic polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ with $\operatorname{deg}(f) \geq 1$, let $\mathcal{L}(f)$ be the set of all linear recurrences with values in $\mathbb{Z}$ and characteristic polynomial $f$, and let \begin{equation*}…

Let ${\Bbb Z}_{m}$ be the additive group of residue classes modulo $m$ and $s(m_{1},m_{2})$ denote the number of subgroups of the group ${\Bbb Z}_{m_{1}}\times {\Bbb Z}_{m_{2}}$, where $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ are arbitrary positive integers. We…

The Fibonacci sequence is periodic modulo every positive integer $m>1$, and perhaps more surprisingly, each period has exactly 1, 2, or 4 zeros that are evenly spaced, which also holds true for more general $K$-Fibonacci sequences. This…

We describe how to compute the intersection of two Lucas sequences of the forms $\{U_n(P,\pm 1) \}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ or $\{V_n(P,\pm 1) \}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ with $P\in\mathbb{Z}$ that includes sequences of Fibonacci, Pell, Lucas, and Lucas-Pell…

We classify all solution triples with $k$-Fibonacci components to the equation $x^2+y^2+z^2=3xyz+m,$ where $m$ is a positive integer and $k\geq 2$. As a result, for $m=8$, we have the Markoff triples with Pell components $(F_2(2), F_2(2n),…

We prove that certain sequences of finite continued fractions associated with a 2-periodic continued fraction with period a,b>0 are moment sequences of discrete signed measures supported in the interval [-1,1], and we give necessary and…

It is well known that when a prime $p$ is congruent to 1 modulo 4, the sum of the quadratic residues equals the sum of the quadratic nonresidues. In this note we give analogous results for the case where $p$ is congruent to 3 modulo 4.

In recent work, M. Just and the second author defined a class of "semi-modular forms" on $\mathbb C$, in analogy with classical modular forms, that are "half modular" in a particular sense; and constructed families of such functions as…

The Fibonacci cube of dimension n, denoted as $\Gamma$ n , is the subgraph of the n-cube 5 Q n induced by vertices with no consecutive 1's. Ashrafi and his co-authors proved the non-existence of perfect codes in $\Gamma$ n for n $\ge$ 4. As…

In this paper, we construct almost resolvable cycle systems of order $4k+1$ for odd $k\ge 11$. This completes the proof of the existence of almost resolvable cycle systems with odd cycle length.
