Unlike in the case of Fibonacci and Lucas numbers, there is a paucity of literature dealing with summation identities involving the Padovan and Perrin numbers. In this paper, we derive various summation identities for these numbers,…
We solve the two Diophantine equations $P_k=J_n+J_m$ and $Q_k=J_n+J_m$ where $\left\lbrace P_{k}\right\rbrace_{k\geq0}$, $\left\lbrace Q_{k}\right\rbrace_{k\geq0}$ and $\left\lbrace J_{k}\right\rbrace_{k\geq0}$ are the sequences of Pell…
The van der Laan-Padovan sequence $P_n ~ (n=0, 1, \ldots)$ is defined by $P_0=1, P_1=P_2=0$, and $P_{n+3}=P_{n+1}+P_n$ for $n=0, 1, \ldots$. We determine all pairs $(P_m, P_n)$ satisfying $P_m^b=2^{g_1} 3^{g_2} 5^{g_3} 7^{g_4} P_n^a$ for…

It is shown that the first $n$ prime numbers $p_1,...,p_n$ determine the next one by the recursion equation $$ p_{n+1} =\lim\limits_{s\to +\infty} [\prod\limits^n_{k=1} (1-\frac{1}{p^s_k}) \sum\limits^\infty_{j=1} \frac{1}{j^s} -1]^{-1/s}.…
The aim of this article is to give some properties of the so-called Padovan sequence $(T_n)_{n \ge 0}$ defined by $$ T_{n+3}=T_{n+1}+T_n \forall n \in \mathbb{N}, T_1=T_2=T_3=1$$ that is divisibility properties, periods, identities.
We introduce a new four-parameters sequence that simultaneously generalizes some well-known integer sequences, including Fibonacci, Padovan, Jacobsthatl, Pell, and Lucas numbers. Combinatorial interpretations are discussed and many…
