Let d be a fixed positive integer. A Lucas d -pseudoprime is a Lucas pseudoprime N for which there exists a Lucas sequence U ( P , Q ) such that the rank of N in U ( P , Q ) is exactly ( N - ε ( N ) ) / d , where ε is the signature of U ( P , Q ) . We prove here that all but a finite number of Lucas d -pseudoprimes are square free. We also prove that all but a finite number of Lucas d -pseudoprimes are Carmichael-Lucas numbers.
