Narayana's cows sequence satisfies the third-order linear recurrence relation $N_n=N_{n-1}+N_{n-3}$ for $n \geq 3$ with initial conditions $N_0=0$ and $N_1=N_2=1$. In this paper, we study $b$-repdigits which are sums of two Narayana…

Narayana's sequence is a ternary recurrent sequence defined by the recurrence relation $\mathcal{N}_n=\mathcal{N}_{n-1}+\mathcal{N}_{n-3}$ with initial terms $\mathcal{N}_0=0$ and $\mathcal{N}_1=\mathcal{N}_2=\mathcal{N}_3=1$. Let…

In this paper,we find all generalized Fibonacci numbers which are Narayana's cows numbers. In our proofs, we use both Baker's theory of nonzero linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers and the Baker-Davenport reduction method.

We define the Narayana sequence $\{a_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ as the one satisfying the linear recurrence relation $a_n = a_{n-1}+a_{n-3}$ for $n\geq 3$, with initial values $a_0 = 0$ and $a_1 = a_2=1$. In this paper, we fully characterize the…

For the Fibonacci numbers $F_n$, we have the self-convolution formula $5 \sum_{i=0}^n F_i F_{n-i} = (2n)F_{n+1} - (n+1)F_n$. We find the corresponding self-convolution formula for the Narayana numbers $R_n$ which satisfy $R_n = R_{n-1} +…

In this paper, we show that there are only finitely many Narayana's numbers which can be written as product of three repdigits in base $g$ with $g \geq 2$. Moreover, for $2 \leq g \leq 10$, we determine all these numbers.

In this paper, we focus on Narayana numbers which can be written as a products of four repdigits in base $g$, where $g$ is an integer with $g\geq2$. We prove that for $g$ between $2$ and $12$, there are finitely many of these numbers.…

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…

The Narayana numbers are $N(n,k) = {1 \over n}{n \choose k}{n \choose {k+1}}$. There are several natural statistics on Dyck paths with a distribution given by N(n,k). We show the equidistribution of Narayana statistics by computing the flag…

For an integer $k \geq 2$, let $\{ P_{n}^{(k)} \}_{n}$ be the $k$-generalized Pell sequence which starts with $0, \dots,0,1$($k$ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of $k$ preceding terms. In this paper, we find all the solutions of…

We consider the generalized Fibonacci counting problem with rabbits that become fertile at age $f$ and die at age $d$, with $1<=f<=d$ and $d$ finite or infinite. We provide a simple proof, based exclusively on a counting argumentation, for…

In this note, by counting some colored plane trees we obtain several binomial identities. These identities can be viewed as specific evaluations of certain generalizations of the Narayana polynomials. As consequences, it provides…

We first establish the result that the Narayana polynomials can be represented as the integrals of the Legendre polynomials. Then we represent the Catalan numbers in terms of the Narayana polynomials by three different identities. We give…
