Elliptic divisibility sequences (EDSs) are generalizations of a class of integer divisibility sequences called Lucas sequences. There has been much interest in cases where the terms of Lucas sequences are squares or cubes. In this work,…

We construct the sequences of Fibonacci and Lucas at any quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d}\ )$ with $d>0$ square free, noting in general that the properties remain valid as those given by the classical sequences of Fibonacci and Lucas…

We observe that a sequence satisfies Lucas congruences modulo $p$ if and only if its values modulo $p$ can be described by a linear $p$-scheme, as introduced by Rowland and Zeilberger, with a single state. This simple observation suggests…

Let $(L_n)_{n \geq 1}$ be the sequence of Lucas numbers, defined recursively by $L_1 := 1$, $L_2 := 3$, and $L_{n + 2} := L_{n + 1} + L_n$, for every integer $n \geq 1$. We determine the asymptotic behavior of $\log \operatorname{lcm} (L_1…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ described by $y^2= x^3+ Kx+ L$ where $K, L \in \mathbb{Q}$. A set of rational points $(x_i,y_i) \in E(\mathbb{Q})$ for $i=1, 2, \cdots, k$, is said to be a sequence of consecutive cubes on $E$…

Here, we show that if $\{U_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ is a Lucas sequence, then the largest $n$ such that $|U_n|=m_1!m_2!\cdots m_k!$ with $1<m_1\le m_2\le \cdots\le m_k$ satisfies $n<3\times 10^5$. We also give better bounds in case the roots of the…

It is known that all terms $U_n$ of a classical regular Lucas sequence have a primitive prime divisor if $n>30$. In addition, a complete description of all regular Lucas sequences and their terms $U_n$, $2\leq n\leq 30$, which do not have a…

Let $C: y^2=ax^4+bx^2+c$, be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb Q$. A set of rational points $(x_i,y_i) \in C(\mathbb Q)$, $i=1,2,\cdots,$ is said to be a sequence of consecutive squares if $x_i= (u + i)^2$, $i=1,2,\cdots$, for some…

We develop a general framework for finding all perfect powers in sequences derived by shifting non-degenerate quadratic Lucas-Lehmer binary recurrence sequences by a fixed integer. By combining this setup with bounds for linear forms in…

For integers $k \geq 2$ and $n \neq 0$, let $v_k(n)$ denotes the greatest nonnegative integer $e$ such that $k^e$ divides $n$. Moreover, let $u_n$ be a nondegenerate Lucas sequence satisfying $u_0 = 0$, $u_1 = 1$, and $u_{n + 2} = a u_{n +…

For an integer $k\geq 2$, let $(L_{n}^{(k)})_{n}$ be the $k-$generalized Lucas sequence which starts with $0,\ldots,0,2,1$ ($k$ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In this paper, we find all the integers…

A positive integer $n$ is called a balancing number if there exists a positive integer $r$ such that $1 + 2 + \cdots + (n-1) = (n+1) + (n+2) + \cdots + (n+r)$. The corresponding value $r$ is known as the balancer of $n$. If $n$ is a…

A curious number is a palindromic number whose base ten representation has the form $a \ldots a b \ldots b a \ldots a$. In this paper, we determine all curious numbers that are perfect squares. Our proof involves reducing the search for…

The Fibonacci cube of dimension n, denoted as $\Gamma$ n , is the subgraph of the n-cube 5 Q n induced by vertices with no consecutive 1's. Ashrafi and his co-authors proved the non-existence of perfect codes in $\Gamma$ n for n $\ge$ 4. As…

A Lucas sequence is a sequence of the general form $v_n = (\phi^n - \bar{\phi}^n)/(\phi-\bar{\phi})$, where $\phi$ and $\bar{\phi}$ are real algebraic integers such that $\phi+\bar{\phi}$ and $\phi\bar{\phi}$ are both rational. Famous…

This paper explores the intricate relationships between Lucas numbers and Diophantine equations, offering significant contributions to the field of number theory. We first establish that the equation regarding Lucas number $L_n = 3x^2$ has…

We show that the $Kn$--smooth part of $a^n-1$ for an integer $a>1$ is $a^{o(n)}$ for most positive integers $n$.

Let $U = (U_n)_{n \geq 0}$ be a Lucas sequence and, for every prime number $p$, let $\rho_U(p)$ be the rank of appearance of $p$ in $U$, that is, the smallest positive integer $k$ such that $p$ divides $U_k$, whenever it exists.…

The Lucas sequence is a sequence of polynomials in s, and t defined recursively by {0}=0, {1}=1, and {n}=s{n-1}+t{n-2} for n >= 2. On specialization of s and t one can recover the Fibonacci numbers, the nonnegative integers, and the…

In this paper, we find all integer sequences of the form a^n + b^n, where a and b are complex numbers and n is a nonnegative integer. We prove that if p and q are integers, then there is a correspondence between the roots of the quadratic…
