A few years ago, Peter Larcombe discovered an amazing property regarding two by two matrices. For any such 2 by 2 matrix A, the ratios of the two anti-diagonal entries is the same for all powers of A. We discuss extensions to higher…
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…
The Fibonacci sequence is obtained as weighted sum along the rows in the Pascal triangle by choosing a periodic up-and-down pattern of weights from the set $\{-1,-\frac{1}{2},0, \frac{1}{2}, 1\}$. A graphical illustration of this identity…
Consider the sequences: $ \{F_{n}\}_{n\geq 0} $ of Fibonacci numbers defined by $ F_0=0 $, $ F_1 =1$ and $ F_{n+2}=F_{n+1}+ F_{n} $ for all $ n\geq 0 $; $ \{P_{n}\}_{n\geq 0} $ of Padovan numbers defined by $ P_0=0 $, $ P_1 =1 = P_2 $ and $…
In this article we charaterize the primes Fibonacci numbers of the form $x^2 +ry^2$, where $r = 1,$ $r$ is a prime positive integer number or r is a power of a prime positive integer, using techniques of combinatorics and numbers theory. We…
For the Lucas sequence $\{U_{k}(P,Q)\}$ we discuss the identities such as the well-known Fibonacci identities. We also propose a method for obtaining identities involving recurrence sequences. With the help of which we find an interpolating…
This paper delves into vector and matrix norms of Fibonacci numbers. Two classes of Fibonacci vectors and a parametric p-norm are defined. From this definition, several properties of Fibonacci vector and matrix p-norms are described by…
In this paper we study some further properties of the matrix with entries binom{i-1}{n-j}. We find the generating function for each row and column, and we find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of this matrix. We also find the spectral…
We prove certain identities involving Euler and Bernoulli polynomials that can be treated as recurrences. We use these and also other known identities to indicate connection of Euler and Bernoulli numbers with entries of inverses of certain…
In this paper, we obtain a general expression for the entries of the lth (l is integer) powers of even order (2k+1)-diagonal Toeplitz matrices. Additionally, we have the complex factorizations of Fibonacci polynomials.
We show that the $p$-adic valuation of the sequence of Fibonacci numbers is a $p$-regular sequence for every prime $p$. For $p \neq 2, 5$, we determine that the rank of this sequence is $\alpha(p) + 1$, where $\alpha(m)$ is the restricted…
An $m \times (n+1)$ multiplicity matrix is a matrix $M = ( \mu_{i,j} )$ with rows enumerated by $i \in \{ 1,\ 2, \ldots, m \}$ and columns enumerated by $j \in \{ 0,1,\ldots, n \}$ whose coordinates are nonnegative integers satisfying the…
Linear recursions of degree $k$ are determined by evaluating the sequence of Generalized Fibonacci Polynomials, $\{F_{k,n}(t_1,...,t_k)\}$ (isobaric reflects of the complete symmetric polynomials) at the integer vectors $(t_1,...,t_k)$. If…
The Pascal matrix, which is related to Pascal's triangle, appears in many places in the theory of uniform distribution and in many other areas of mathematics. Examples are the construction of low-discrepancy sequences as well as normal…
Classical studies of the Fibonacci sequence focus on its periodicity modulo $m$ (the Pisano periods) with canonical initialization. We investigate instead the complete periodic structure arising from all $m^2$ possible initializations in…
We discuss an equivalence relation on the set of square binary matrices with the same number of 1's in each row and each column. Each binary matrix is represented using ordered n-tuples of natural numbers. We give a few starting values of…
In \cite{Ka}, the authors obtained a method for deriving special matrices, whose powers are related to Fibonacci and Lucas numbers. In the study, it has been developed a method for deriving special matrices of $3\times 3$ dimensions, whose…
In this paper, we introduce the bi-periodic Lucas matrix sequence and present some fundamental properties of this generalized matrix sequence. Moreover, we investigate the important relationships between the bi-periodic Fibonacci and Lucas…
Let $p$ be an odd prime. It is well known that $F_{p-(\frac p5)}\equiv 0\pmod{p}$, where $\{F_n\}_{n\ge0}$ is the Fibonacci sequence and $(-)$ is the Jacobi symbol. In this paper we show that if $p\not=5$ then we may determine $F_{p-(\frac…
In this paper, we show that if $p\equiv 1\pmod 4$ is prime, then $4F_p$ admits a representation of the form $u^2-pv^2$ for some integers $u$ and $v$, where $F_n$ is the $n$th Fibonacci number. We prove a similar result when $p\equiv -1\pmod…
