On Balancing and Lucas-balancing Quaternions [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Mathematics, 2021
Abstract The aim of this article is to investigate two new classes of quaternions, namely, balancing and Lucas-balancing quaternions that are based on balancing and Lucas-balancing numbers, respectively. Further, some identities including Binet’s formulas, summation formulas, Catalan’s identity, etc. concerning these quaternions are also
