NEW IDENTITIES FOR THE COMMON FACTORS OF BALANCING AND LUCAS-BALANCING NUMBERS [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Pure and Apllied Mathematics, 2013
Balancing numbers n and balancers r are originally defined as the solution of the Diophantine equation 1 + 2 + ··· + (n − 1) = (n + 1) + (n + 2) + ··· + (n + r). If n is a balancing number, then 8n 2 + 1 is a perfect square. Further, If n is a balancing number then the positive square root of 8n 2 + 1 is called a Lucas-balancing number.
