The k-Fibonacci matrix and the Pascal matrix

Sergio Falcon (2011)

Open Mathematics

We define the k-Fibonacci matrix as an extension of the classical Fibonacci matrix and relationed with the k-Fibonacci numbers. Then we give two factorizations of the Pascal matrix involving the k-Fibonacci matrix and two new matrices, L and R. As a consequence we find some combinatorial formulas involving the k-Fibonacci numbers.

The terms of the form 7kx² in the generalized Lucas sequence with parameters P and Q

Olcay Karaatlı (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

Let Vₙ(P,Q) denote the generalized Lucas sequence with parameters P and Q. For all odd relatively prime values of P and Q such that P² + 4Q > 0, we determine all indices n such that Vₙ(P,Q) = 7kx² when k|P. As an application, we determine all indices n such that the equation Vₙ = 21x² has solutions.

Tribonacci modulo 2 t and 11 t

Jiří Klaška (2008)

Mathematica Bohemica

Our previous research was devoted to the problem of determining the primitive periods of the sequences ( G n mod p t ) n = 1 where ( G n ) n = 1 is a Tribonacci sequence defined by an arbitrary triple of integers. The solution to this problem was found for the case of powers of an arbitrary prime p 2 , 11 . In this paper, which could be seen as a completion of our preceding investigation, we find solution for the case of singular primes p = 2 , 11 .

Tribonacci modulo p t

Jiří Klaška (2008)

Mathematica Bohemica

Our research was inspired by the relations between the primitive periods of sequences obtained by reducing Tribonacci sequence by a given prime modulus p and by its powers p t , which were deduced by M. E. Waddill. In this paper we derive similar results for the case of a Tribonacci sequence that starts with an arbitrary triple of integers.

Trivial points on towers of curves

Xavier Xarles (2013)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

In order to study the behavior of the points in a tower of curves, we introduce and study trivial points on towers of curves, and we discuss their finiteness over number fields. We relate the problem of proving that the only rational points are the trivial ones at some level of the tower, to the unboundeness of the gonality of the curves in the tower, which we show under some hypothesis.
