Horadam introduced a new generalized sequence of numbers, describing its key features and the special sub-sequences that are obtained depending on the choices of initial parameters. This sequence and its sub-sequences are known as the…

For Lucas sequences of the first kind (u_n) and second kind (v_n) defined as usual for positive n by u_n=(a^n-b^n)/(a-b), v_n=a^n+b^n, where a and b are either integers or conjugate quadratic integers, we describe the set of indices n for…

Let $P(m)$ denote the largest prime factor of an integer $m\geq 2$, and put $P(0)=P(1)=1$. For an integer $k\geq 2$, let $(F_{n}^{(k)})_{n\geq 2-k}$ be the $k-$generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $0,...,0,1$ ($k$ terms) and…

In this study, we define a new type of Fibonacci and Lucas num- bers which are called bicomplex Fibonacci and bicomplex Lucas numbers. We obtain the well-known properties e.g. Docagnes, Cassini, Catalan for these new types. We also give the…

In this paper we construct infinite sequences of monic irreducible polynomials with coefficients in odd prime fields by means of a transformation introduced by Cohen in 1992. We make no assumptions on the coefficients of the first…

We give a method of constructing polynomials of arbitrarily large degree irreducible over a global field F but reducible modulo every prime of F. The method consists of finding quadratic f in F[x] whose iterates have the desired property,…

Fibonacci polynomials are generalizations of Fibonacci numbers, so it is natural to consider polynomial versions of the various results for Fibonacci numbers. According to Hong, Pongsriiam, Bulawa, and Lee, the generating function of the…

For a suitable irreducible \textit{base} polynomial $f(x)\in \mathbf{Z}[x]$ of degree $k$, a family of polynomials $F_m(x)$ depending on $f(x)$ is constructed with the properties: (i) there is exactly one irreducible factor $\Phi_{d,f}(x)$…

Let $n \neq 8$ be a positive integer such that $n+1 \neq 2^u$ for any integer $u\geq 2$. Let $\phi(x)$ belonging to $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a monic polynomial which is irreducible modulo all primes less than or equal to $n+1$. Let $a_j(x)$ with…

If L, respectively R are matrices with entries binom{i-1,j-1}, respectively binom{i-1,n-j}, it is known that L^2 = I (mod 2), respectively R^3 = I (mod 2), where I is the identity matrix of dimension n > 1 (see P10735-May 1999 issue of the…

We derive some Fibonacci and Lucas identities which contain inverse binomial coefficients. Extension of the results to the general Horadam sequence is possible, in some cases.

Say a trinomial $x^n+A x^m+B \in \Q[x]$ has reducibility type $(n_1,n_2,...,n_k)$ if there exists a factorization of the trinomial into irreducible polynomials in $\Q[x]$ of degrees $n_1$, $n_2$,...,$n_k$, ordered so that $n_1 \leq n_2 \leq…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb{Z}$ that is not a Dirac mass and that has finite support. We prove that if the coefficients of a monic polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of degree $n$ are chosen independently at random…

In this paper, we define a variant of Fibonacci-like sequences that we call prime Fibonacci sequences, where one takes the sum of the previous two terms and returns the smallest odd prime divisor of that sum as the next term. We prove that…

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…

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…
