Let $\left\{U_n\right\}=\left\{U_n(P,Q)\right\}$ and $\left\{V_n\right\}=\left\{V_n(P,Q)\right\}$ be the Lucas sequences of the first and second kind respectively at the parameters $P\ge 1$ and $Q\in \{-1,1\}$. In this paper, we provide a technique for characterizing the solutions of the so-called Bartz-Marlewski equation $$x^2-3xy+y^2+x=0,$$ where $(x,y)=(U_i,U_j)$ or $(V_i,V_j)$ with $i$, $j\ge 1$. Then, the procedure of this technique is applied to completely resolve this equation with certain values of such parameters.

In this paper we introduce bihyperbolic numbers of the Fibonacci type. We present some of their properties using matrix generators and idempotent representations.

The aim of the paper is to present the binomial transformation formulae of Fibonacci numbers scaled by complex multipliers. Many of these new and nontrivial relations follow from the fundamental properties of the so-called delta-Fibonacci numbers defined by Wituła and Słota. The paper contains some original relations connecting the values of delta-Fibonacci numbers with the respective values of Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second kind.

The authors examine the frequency distribution of second-order recurrence sequences that are not $p$-regular, for an odd prime $p$, and apply their results to compute bounds for the frequencies of $p$-singular elements of $p$-regular second-order recurrences modulo powers of the prime $p$. The authors’ results have application to the $p$-stability of second-order recurrence sequences.
