In this paper we use a formula for the $n$-th power of a $2\times2$ matrix $A$ (in terms of the entries in $A$) to derive various combinatorial identities. Three examples of our results follow. 1) We show that if $m$ and $n$ are positive…

We give a simplified presentation of some results about recurrences of certain sequences of binomial sums in terms of (generalized) Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials.

Some applications of a result, which is proved recently, is considered. We first prove three determinantal identities concerning the binomial coefficient and Stirling numbers of the first and the second kind. We also easily obtain the…

We consider the recursion $X_{n+1}=\sum_{i=0}^n \epsilon_{n,i}X_{n-i}$, where $\epsilon_{n,i}$ are i.i.d. (Bernoulli) random variables taking values in $\{-1,1\}$, and $X_0=1$, $X_{-j}=0$ for $j>0$. We prove that almost surely, $n^{-1}\log…

We study some divisibility properties related to the factors of the discriminant of the characteristic polynomial of generalized Fibonacci sequences $(G_n)_{n\ge0}$ defined by $G_0=0$, $G_1=1$ and $G_n=pG_{n-1}+qG_{n-2}$ for $n\ge2$, where…

Recursive formulas are derived for the number of solutions of linear and quadratic Diophantine equations with positive coefficients. This result is further extended to general non-linear additive Diophantine equations. It is shown that all…

We have studied several generalizations of Fibonacci sequences as the sequences with arbitrary initial values, the addition of two and more Fibonacci subsequences and Fibonacci polynomials with arbitrary bases. For Fibonacci numbers with…

In this article, we introduce the simplicial $d$-polytopic numbers defined on generalized Fibonacci polynomials. We establish basic identities and find $q$-identities known. Furthermore, we find generating functions for the simplicial…

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…

Based on a variant of Sury's polynomial identity we derive new expressions for various finite Fibonacci (Lucas) sums. We extend the results to Fibonacci and Chebyshev polynomials, and also to Horadam sequences. In addition to deriving sum…

This paper addresses the unnatural appearance of the two-variable degenerate Fubini polynomials in a recently derived Spivey-type recurrence relation for the fully degenerate Bell polynomials. To solve this, we introduce a new family of…

H. Lenstra has pointed out that a cubic polynomial of the form (x-a)(x-b)(x-c) + r(x-d)(x-e), where {a,b,c,d,e} is some permutation of {0,1,2,3,4}, is irreducible modulo 5 because every possible linear factor divides one summand but not the…

We prove that the generalised Fibonacci group F(r,n) is infinite for (r,n) in {(7 + 5k,5), (8 + 5k,5)} where k is greater than or equal to 0. This together with previously known results yields a complete classification of the finite F(r,n),…

We offer several new summation identities involving harmonic numbers, odd harmonic numbers, and Fibonacci numbers. Our results are derived using three different approaches: partial summation, polynomial identities and binomial…

We prove that the difference between the $n$-th hyperfibonacci number of $r$-th generation and its two consecutive predecessors is the $n$-th regular $(r-1)$-topic number. Using this fact we provide an equivalent recursive definition of…

Powers of Fibonacci polynomials are expressed as single sums, improving on a double sum recently seen in the literature.

Generalized Fibonacci-like sequences appear in finite difference approximations of the Partial Differential Equations based upon replacing partial differential equations by finite difference equations. This paper studies properties of the…

In this paper we present an equivalent statement to the Jacobian conjecture. For a polynomial map F on an affine space of dimension n, we define recursively n finite sequences of polynomials. We give an equivalent condition to the…

It is known that the greatest common divisor of two Fibonacci numbers is again a Fibonacci number. It is called the strong divisibility property. However, this property does not hold for every second order sequence. In this paper we study…

In this paper, we give some determinantal and permanental representations of generalized bivariate Fibonacci p-polynomials by using various Hessenberg matrices. The results that we obtained are important since generalized bivariate…
