Complex Factorizations of the Lucas Sequences via Matrix Methods
Firstly, we show a connection between the first Lucas sequence and the determinants of some tridiagonal matrices. Secondly, we derive the complex factorizations of the first Lucas sequence by computing those determinants with the help of Chebyshev ...

Binomial Coefficients and Lucas Sequences
Let sequences \(\{u_n\}_{n\geq 0}\) and \(\{v_n\}_{n\geq 0}\) be defined by \(u_n= \frac{a^n-b^n}{a-b}\), \(v_n= a^n+b^n\) where \(a,b\) are integers such that \(a>|b|\). (Such sequences are Lucas sequences such that the associated quadratic polynomial has integer roots.

On the Monoid Generated by a Lucas Sequence [PDF]
A Lucas sequence is a sequence of the general form $v_n = (ϕ^n - \barϕ^n)/(ϕ-\barϕ)$, where $ϕ$ and $\barϕ$ are real algebraic integers such that $ϕ+\barϕ$ and $ϕ\barϕ$ are both rational. Famous examples include the Fibonacci numbers, the Pell numbers, and the Mersenne numbers.

ON PERFECT POWERS IN LUCAS SEQUENCES [PDF]
Let (un)n≥0be the binary recurrence sequence of integers given by u0= 0, u1= 1 and un+2= 2(un+1+ un). We show that the only positive perfect powers in this sequence are u1= 1 and u4= 16. We further discuss the problem of determining perfect powers in Lucas sequences in general.

On r-Jacobsthal and r-Jacobsthal-Lucas Numbers
Recently, Bród introduced a new Jacobsthal-type sequence which is called r-Jacobsthal sequence in current study. After defining the appropriate r-Jacobsthal–Lucas sequence for the r-Jacobsthal sequence, we obtain some properties of these two sequences ...

Identities relating six members of the Fibonacci family of sequences
In this paper, we prove several identities each relating a sum of products of three terms coming from different members of the Fibonacci family of sequences with a comparable sum whose terms come from three other sequences.

The Square Terms in Lucas Sequences
Let \(P\) and \(Q\) be relatively prime odd integers and define the sequences \(\{U_n\}\) and \(\{V_n\}\) by \(U_n = PU_{n - 1} - QU_{n - 2}\) with \(U_0 = 0\), \(U_1 = 1\) and \(V_n = PV_{n - 1} - QV_{n - 2}\) with \(V_0 = 2\), \(V_1 = P\). The main results of the paper are the following. (i) If \(V_n\) is a square, then \(n = 1,3\) or 5.

The first map of crop sequence types in Europe over 2012–2018 [PDF]
Crop diversification is considered a key element of agroecological transition, whereas current dominant cropping systems are known to rely on only a few crop species – like cereals in Europe.
