Let $a, b,c $ and $k$ be positive integers such that $1\leq a\leq b,a<c<2(a+b), c\ne b$ and $(a,b,c)=1$. Define the arithmetic function $f_k(a,b;c;n)$ by $$ \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{f_k(a,b;c;n)}{n^s}=\frac{\zeta (as)\zeta…

For an integer $k\ge 2$, let $\{F^{(k)}_{n}\}_{n\ge 2-k}$ be the $ k$--generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $0, \ldots, 0,1$ (a total of $k$ terms) and for which each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In…

We introduce a family of Dirichlet series associated to real quadratic number fields that generalize the ordinary Fibonacci zeta function $\sum F(n)^{-s}$, where $F(n)$ denotes the $n$th Fibonacci number. We then give three different…

In this note, we first review the novel approach to power sums put forward recently by Muschielok in arXiv:2207.01935v1, which can be summarized by the formula $S_m^{(a)}(n) = \sum_{k} c_{mk} \psi_k^{(a)}(n)$, where the $c_{mk}$'s are the…
