Repdigits in generalized Pell sequences

Jhon J. Bravo, Jose L. Herrera (2020)

Archivum Mathematicum

For an integer k 2 , let ( n ) n be the k - generalized Pell sequence which starts with 0 , ... , 0 , 1 ( k terms) and each term afterwards is given by the linear recurrence n = 2 n - 1 + n - 2 + + n - k . In this paper, we find all k -generalized Pell numbers with only one distinct digit (the so-called repdigits). Some interesting estimations involving generalized Pell numbers, that we believe are of independent interest, are also deduced. This paper continues a previous work that searched for repdigits in the usual Pell sequence ( P n ( 2 ) ) n .

Repdigits in the base b as sums of four balancing numbers

Refik Keskin, Faticko Erduvan (2021)

Mathematica Bohemica

The sequence of balancing numbers ( B n ) is defined by the recurrence relation B n = 6 B n - 1 - B n - 2 for n 2 with initial conditions B 0 = 0 and B 1 = 1 . B n is called the n th balancing number. In this paper, we find all repdigits in the base b , which are sums of four balancing numbers. As a result of our theorem,...

Root location for the characteristic polynomial of a Fibonacci type sequence

Zhibin Du, Carlos Martins da Fonseca (2023)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We analyse the roots of the polynomial x n - p x n - 1 - q x - 1 for p q 1 . This is the characteristic polynomial of the recurrence relation F k , p , q ( n ) = p F k , p , q ( n - 1 ) + q F k , p , q ( n - k + 1 ) + F k , p , q ( n - k ) for n k , which includes the relations of several particular sequences recently defined. In the end, a matricial representation for such a recurrence relation is provided.
