A rational positive-definite quadratic form is perfect if it can be reconstructed from the knowledge of its minimal nonzero value m and the finite set of integral vectors v such that f(v) = m. This concept was introduced by Voronoi and…
In this paper, we provide new applications of Fibonacci and Lucas numbers. In some circumstances, we find algebraic structures on some sets defined with these numbers, we generalize Fibonacci and Lucas numbers by using an arbitrary binary…
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…
We classify those finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$, for $q$ a power of some fixed prime number, whose members are the sum of an $n$-potent element with $n>1$ and a 4-potent element. It is shown that there are precisely ten non-trivial pairs…
We define the convolved h(x)-Fibonacci polynomials as an extension of the classical convolved Fibonacci numbers. Then we give some combinatorial formulas involving the h(x)-Fibonacci and h(x)-Lucas polynomials. Moreover we obtain the…
In this paper, we consider the problem about finding out perfect powers in an alternating sum of consecutive cubes. More precisely, we completely solve the Diophantine equation $(x+1)^3 - (x+2)^3 + \cdots - (x + 2d)^3 + (x + 2d + 1)^3 =…
Let $F_n(k)$ be the generalized Fibonacci number defined by (with $F_i(k)$ abbreviated to $F_i$): $F_n = F_{n-1} + F_{n-2} + \dots + F_{n-k}$, for $n \geq k$, and the initial values $(F_0,F_1,...,F_{k-1})$. Let $B_n(k,j)$ be $F_n(k)$ with…
We develop closed form expressions for various finite binomial Fibonacci and Lucas sums depending on the modulo 5 nature of the upper summation limit. Our expressions are inferred from some trigonometric identities.
This contribution presents all possible solutions to the Diophantine equations $F_k=L_mL_n$ and $L_k=F_mF_n$. To be clear, Fibonacci numbers that are the product of two arbitrary Lucas numbers and Lucas numbers that are the product of two…
Motivated by Elementary Problem B-1172 in the Fibonacci Quarterly (vol. 53, no. 3, pg. 273), formulas for the areas of triangles and other polygons having vertices with coordinates taken from various sequences of integers are obtained. The…
We consider various properties and manifestations of some sign-alternating univariate polynomials borne of right-triangular integer arrays related to certain generalizations of the Fibonacci sequence. Using a theory of the root geometry of…
In 2016, Edgar and, independently of him, Bhatnagar sta\-ted a nice polynomial identity that connects Fibonacci and Lucas numbers. Shortly after their publications, this identity has been generalized in two different ways: Dafnis, Phillipou…
We give some classes of power maps with low $c$-differential uniformity over finite fields of odd characteristic, {for $c=-1$}. Moreover, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a linearized polynomial to be a perfect $c$-nonlinear…
In this paper, we discuss sums of powers of the positive integers and compute both the exponential and ordinary generating functions for these sums. We express these generating functions in terms of exponential and geometric polynomials and…
In this paper we initiate a study on Gauss factorials of polynomials over finite fields, which are the analogues of Gauss factorials of positive integers.
Using a straightforward elementary approach, we derive numerous infinite arctangent summation formulas involving Fibonacci and Lucas numbers. While most of the results obtained are new, a couple of celebrated results appear as particular…
In this paper, we present a new generalization of the Lucas numbers by matrix representation using Genaralized Lucas Polynomials. We give some properties of this new generalization and some relations between the generalized order-k Lucas…
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,…
We study matrices which transform the sequence of Fibonacci or Lucas polynomials with even index to those with odd index and vice versa. They turn out to be intimately related to generalized Stirling numbers and to Bernoulli, Genocchi and…
In this paper, we consider infinite sums derived from the reciprocals of the generalized Fibonacci numbers. We obtain some new and interesting identities for the generalized Fibonacci numbers.
