In this paper we discuss near-perfect numbers of various forms. In particular, we study the existence of near-perfect numbers in the Fibonacci and Lucas sequences, near-perfect values taken by integer polynomials and repdigit near-perfect…
Let P and Q be non-zero integers. The Lucas sequence U_n(P,Q), n=0,1,2,... is defined by U_0=0, U_1=1, U_n= P U_{n-1}-Q U_{n-2} for n>1. For each positive integer n<8 we describe all Lucas sequences with (P,Q)=1 having the property that…
This paper generalizes a graph theoretic proof technique for a Fibonacci identity proposed by Lee Knisley Sanders, and explores characteristics of these generalized theorems ad infinitum.
In a recent paper, Frank Ruskey asked whether every linear recurrent sequence can occur in some solution of a meta-Fibonacci sequence. In this paper, we answer his question in the affirmative for recurrences with positive coefficients.
In this paper, we extend the $p$-adic valuations originally obtained by Carmichael for the sequences obtained by applying M\"obius inversion to Lucas sequences to $p$-adic congruences, from which we immediately derive corresponding…
In this paper, we introduce relations between binomial sums involving (generalized) Fibonacci and Lucas numbers, and different kinds of binomial coefficients. We also present some relations between sums with two and three binomial…
In this paper we give efficient algorithms for computing second-, third-, and fourth-order linear recurrences. We also present an algorithm scheme for computing terms with the indices $N,\ldots,N+n-1$ of an $n$th-order linear recurrence.…
In this paper, bicomplex k-Fibonacci quaternions are defined. Also, some algebraic properties of bicomplex k-Fibonacci quaternions which are connected with bicomplex numbers and k-Fibonacci numbers are investigated. Furthermore, the…
In this note we present a method for obtaining a wide class of combinatorial identities. We give several examples, in particular, based on the Gamma and Beta functions. Some of them have already been considered by previously, and other are…
In this paper, we study a structured family of matrices whose entries are given by products of $k$-Fibonacci and $k$-Lucas numbers. For this family, we obtain explicit and unified formulas for several classical matrix invariants, including…
By means of the generating function method, a linear recurrence relation is explicitly resolved. The solution is expressed in terms of the Stirling numbers of both the first and the second kind. Two remarkable pairs of combinatorial…
We study matrices which transform the sequence of Fibonacci or Lucas polynomials with even index to those with odd index and vice versa. They turn out to be intimately related to generalized Stirling numbers and to Bernoulli, Genocchi and…
We consider the $1$-dimensional reflected Brownian motion and $3$-dimensional Bessel process and the general models. By decomposing the hitting times of consecutive sites into loops, we obtain identities, called loop identities, for the…
We show that certain weighted Fibonacci and Lucas series can always be expressed as linear combinations of polylogarithms. In some special cases we evaluate the series in terms of Bernoulli polynomials, making use of the connection between…
We obtain connection coefficients between $q$-binomial and $q$-trinomial coefficients. Using these, one can transform $q$-binomial identities into a $q$-trinomial identities and back again. To demonstrate the usefulness of this procedure we…
We investigate general properties of number sequences which allow explicit representation in terms of products. We find that such sequences form whole families of number sequences sharing similar recursive identities. Restricting to the…
In this paper, we give recurrence relations and identities for some integer sequences related to Ward numbers such as Ward-Lah numbers, varied Ward numbers and binomial Ward numbers. Most of the sequences are entered in the On-Line…
We formulate several polynomial identities. One side of these identities has a nice simple form. Whereas the other has a form of a polynomial whose coefficients contain binomial coefficients double factorials or (and) rising factorials. The…
In this paper we extend the notion of Melham sum to the Pell and Pell-Lucas sequences. While the proofs of general statements rely on the binomial theorem, we prove some spacial cases by the known Pell identities. We also give extensions of…
Wall published a paper in 1960 on the Fibonacci sequence where he derived many results concerning the period and prime power divisibility modulo m. His periodicity results have been generalized to second order linear recurrences. Here we…
