We demonstrate here a remarkably simple method for deriving a large number of identities involving the Fibonacci numbers, Lucas numbers and binomial coefficients. As will be shown, this is based on the utilisation of some straightforward properties of the golden ratio in conjunction with a result concerning irrational numbers. Indeed, for the simpler cases at least, the derivations could be understood by able high-school students. In particular, we avoid the use of exponential generating functions, matrix methods, Binet's formula, involved combinatorial arguments or lengthy algebraic manipulations.

In this paper, we will firstly define a new generalization of numbers (p, q) and then derive the appropriate Binet's formula and generating functions concerning (p,q)-Fibonacci numbers, (p,q)- Lucas numbers, (p,q)-Pell numbers, (p,q)-Pell Lucas numbers, (p,q)-Jacobsthal numbers and (p,q)-Jacobsthal Lucas numbers. Also, some useful generating functions are provided for the products of (p,q)-numbers with bivariate complex Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials.

The aim of this paper is to define new families of combinatorial numbers and polynomials associated with Peters polynomials. These families are also a modification of the special numbers and polynomials in [11]. Some fundamental properties of these polynomials and numbers are given. Moreover, a combinatorial identity, which calculates the Fibonacci numbers with the aid of binomial coefficients and which was proved by Lucas in 1876, is proved by different method with the help of these combinatorial numbers. Consequently, by using the same method, we give a new recurrence formula for the Fibonacci numbers and Lucas numbers. Finally, relations between these combinatorial numbers and polynomials with their generating functions and other well-known special polynomials and numbers are given.

Binet Formula

Fibonacci numbers, Lucas numbers and Mulatu numbers are built in the same method. The three numbers differ in the first term, while the second term is entirely the same. The next terms are the sum of two successive terms. In this article, generalizations of Fibonacci, Lucas and Mulatu (GFLM) numbers are built which are generalizations of the three types of numbers. The Binet formula is then built for the GFLM numbers, and determines the golden ratio, silver ratio and Bronze ratio of the GFLM numbers. This article also presents generalizations of these three types of ratios, called Metallic ratios. In the last part we state the Metallic ratio in the form of continued fraction and nested radicals.

In this paper, we introduce the generalized dual hyperbolic Fibonacci numbers. As special cases, we deal with dual hyperbolic Fibonacci and dual hyperbolic Lucas numbers. We present Binet's formulas, generating functions and the summation formulas for these numbers. Moreover, we give Catalan's, Cassini's, d'Ocagne's, Gelin-Cesàro's, Melham's identities and present matrices related with these sequences.

AbstractNew results about some sums s n(k, l) of products of the Lucas numbers, which are of similar type as the sums in [SEIBERT, J.—TROJOVSK Ý, P.: On multiple sums of products of Lucas numbers, J. Integer Seq. 10 (2007), Article 07.4.5], and sums σ(k) = $$ \sum\limits_{l = 0}^{\tfrac{{k - 1}} {2}} {(_l^k )F_k - 2l^S n(k,l)} $$ are derived. These sums are related to the numerator of generating function for the kth powers of the Fibonacci numbers. s n(k, l) and σ(k) are expressed as the sum of the binomial and the Fibonomial coefficients. Proofs of these formulas are based on a special inverse formulas.

We organized the Leonids observing network that comprised of 276 observation teams consisting of about 3,000 senior high-school students in Japan on Nov. 17 1998. We counted the visible meteors with our naked eyes. It was a simple method, but the many data enabled us to discuss the structure of the dust trail. However, the base-line is so short that we could not discuss the structure in full detail. In 1999, we organized a worldwide network of senior high-school students. The network is comprised of 307 teams from 23 countries. The base-line of our new project is the size of the Earth. We succeeded in making 20 hours continuous observations with this network. One of the observational teams in Tanzania encountered the Leonid meteor storm. We report on the scientific results and the educational aspects of these projects.
