In this paper, we define the bi-periodic Fibonacci matrix sequence that represent bi-periodic Fibonacci numbers. Then, we investigate generating function, Binet formula and summations of bi-periodic Fibonacci matrix sequence. After that, we…
We consider $m$-th order linear recurrences that can be thought of as generalizations of the Lucas sequence. We exploit some interplay with matrices that again can be considered generalizations of the Fibonacci matrix. We introduce the…
We study growth rates of generalised Fibonacci sequences of a particular structure. These sequences are constructed from choosing two real numbers for the first two terms and always having the next term be either the sum or the difference…
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.
One of the most popular and studied recursive series is the Fibonacci sequence. It is challenging to see how Fibonacci numbers can be used to generate other recursive sequences. In our article, we describe some families of integer…
Let $k\geq2$. Then the $k$-th order Fibonacci cube $\Gamma^{(k)}_{n}$ is the subgraph of the hypercube $Q_{n}$ induced by vertices without $k$ consecutive $1$s. The case $k=2$ corresponds to the classic Fibonacci cube $\Gamma_{n}$. There…
In this paper, as an analogue of the integer case, we study detailedly the period and the rank of the generalized Fibonacci sequence of polynomials over a finite field modulo an arbitrary polynomial. We establish some formulas to compute…
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…
For an integer $ k\geq 2 $, let $ \{F^{(k)}_{n} \}_{n\geq 0}$ be the $ k$--generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $ 0, \ldots, 0, 1 $ ($ k $ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of the $ k $ preceding terms. In this paper,…
In 2021, Guyer and Mbirika gave two equivalent formulas that computed the greatest common divisor (GCD) of all sums of $k$ consecutive terms in the generalized Fibonacci sequence $\left(G_n\right)_{n \geq 0}$ given by the recurrence $G_n =…
We prove a linear recurrence relation for a large family of generalized Schreier sets, which generalizes the Fibonacci recurrence proved by Bird and higher order Fibonacci recurrence proved by the second author et al. Furthermore, we show a…
Let $F_n$ be the $n$th Fibonacci number. Let $m, n$ be positive integers. Define a sequence $(G(k,n,m))_{k\geq 1}$ by $G(1,n,m) = F^m_n$, and $G(k+1,n,m) = F_{nG(k,n,m)}$ for all $k\geq 1$. We show that $F_n^{k+m-1}\mid G(k,n,m)$ for all…
Let $\{G_n\}$ be a periodic sequence of integers modulo $m$ and let $\{SG_n\}$ be the partial sum sequence defined by $SG_n:= \sum_{k=0}^nG_k $ (mod $m$). We give a formula for the period of $\{SG_n\}$. We also show that for a generalized…

For an integer $k\ge 2$, let $\{F^{(k)}_{n}\}_{n\ge 2-k}$ be the $ k$--generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $0, \ldots, 0,1$ (a total of $k$ terms) and for which each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In…
