Abstract

We classify all solution triples with kk-Fibonacci components to the equation x2+y2+z2=3xyz+m,x^2+y^2+z^2=3xyz+m, where mm is a positive integer and k2k\geq 2. As a result, for m=8m=8, we have the Markoff triples with Pell components (F2(2),F2(2n),F2(2n+2))(F_2(2), F_2(2n), F_2(2n+2)), for n1n\geq 1. For all other mm there exists at most one such ordered triple, except when k=3,k=3, aa is odd, bb is even and ba+3b\geq a+3, where (F3(a),F3(b),F3(a+b))(F_3(a),F_3(b),F_3(a+b)) and (F3(a+1),F3(b1),F3(a+b))(F_3(a+1),F_3(b-1),F_3(a+b)) share the same mm.
