Let $f(x) \in \bbz[x]$ and consider the index divisibility set $D = \{n \in \bbn : n \mid f^n(0)\}$. We present a number of properties of $D$ in the case that $(f^n(0))_{n=1}^\infty$ is a rigid divisibility sequence, generalizing a number…

The Lucas polynomials, $\{n\}$, are polynomials in $s$ and $t$ given by $\{ n \} = s \{ n-1 \} + t \{ n-2 \}$ for $n \geq 2$ with $ \{ 0 \} = 0$ and $\{ 1 \} = 1$. The lucanomial coefficients, an analogue of the binomial coefficients, are…

We study the Leibniz $n$-algebra $\textbf{U}_n(\mathfrak{L})$, whose multiplication is defined via the bracket of a Leibniz algebra $\mathfrak{L}$ as $[x_1,\dots,x_n]=[x_1,[\dots, [x_{n-2},[x_{n-1},x_n]]\dots]]$. We show that…

Let $F_{n}$ and $L_n$ be the $n$th Fibonacci and Lucas number, respectively. For each positive integer $m$, the order of appearance of $m$ in the Fibonacci sequence, denoted by $z(m)$, is the smallest positive integer $k$ such that $m$…
