We show that essentially the Fibonacci sequence is the unique binary recurrence which contains infinitely many three-term arithmetic progressions. A criterion for general linear recurrences having infinitely many three-term arithmetic…

We study dynamical properties of the Fibonacci trace map - a polynomial map that is related to numerous problems in geometry, algebra, analysis, mathematical physics, and number theory. Persistent homoclinic tangencies, stochastic sea of…

A recurrence equation is a discrete integrable equation whose solutions are all periodic and the period is fixed. We show that infinitely many recurrence equations can be derived from the information about invariant varieties of periodic…

The Lucas sequences are integers defined by a homogeneous recurrence relation. They include the well-known Fibonacci numbers, which appear abundantly in nature. The complementary Lucas numbers, defined by the same recurrence relation, are…

In this note we show that if $(u_n)_{n\geqslant 1}$ is a simple linearly recurrent sequence of integers whose minimal recurrence of order $k$ involves only positive coefficients that has positive initial terms, then $(Mu_{n^s})_{n\geqslant…

An integer sequence is called realizable if it is the count of periodic points of some map. The Fibonacci sequence $(F_n)$ does not have this property, and the Fibonacci sequence sampled along the squares $(F_{n^2})$ also does not have this…

In this paper, by presenting bi-periodic Lucas numbers as a binomial sum, we introduce the bi-periodic incomplete Lucas numbers. After that, by using the bi-periodic incomplete Lucas numbers, we derive the recurrence relation and the…

By investigating a recurrence relation about functions, we first give alternative proofs of various identities on Fibonacci numbers and Lucas numbers, and then, make certain well known identities visible via certain trivalent graph…

We consider the set of all 2-step recurrences (difference equations) that are given by linear fractional maps. These give birational maps of the plane. We determine the degree growth of these birational maps. We find the all the maps in…

This paper will study topological, geometrical and measure-theoretical properties of the real Fibonacci map. Our goal was to figure out if this type of recurrence really gives any pathological examples and to compare it with the infinitely…

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…

We derive the double recurrence $e_n = \frac{1}{2}(a_{n-1}+5b_{n-1}); f_{n} = \frac{1}{2}(a_{n-1}+b_{n-1})$ with $e_0=2;f_0=0$ for the Fibonacci numbers, leading to an extremely simple and fast implementation. Though the recurrence is…

We give a detailed discussion about existence and uniqueness of Lu's momentum map. More precisely, we introduce the infinitesimal momentum map, and we study its properties. This allows us to describe the theory of reconstruction of the…

We derive several identities for arbitrary homogeneous second order recurrence sequences with constant coefficients. The results are then applied to present a unified study of six well known integer sequences, namely the Fibonacci sequence,…

We describe the statistical properties of the dynamics of the quadratic polynomials P_a(z):=e^{2\pi a i} z+z^2 on the complex plane, with a of high return times. In particular, we show that these maps are uniquely ergodic on their measure…

For any dynamical system $T:X\rightarrow X$ of a compact metric space $X$ with $g-$almost product property and uniform separation property, under the assumptions that the periodic points are dense in $X$ and the periodic measures are dense…

We derive some Fibonacci and Lucas identities which contain inverse binomial coefficients. Extension of the results to the general Horadam sequence is possible, in some cases.

We associate to any dynamical system with finitely many periodic orbits of each length a collection of possible time-changes of the sequence of periodic point counts that preserve the property of counting periodic points. Intersecting over…

I discuss classical and quantum recurrence theorems in a unified manner, treating both as generalisations of the fact that a system with a finite state space only has so many places to go. Along the way I prove versions of the recurrence…

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…
