The sequence of the k-generalized Fibonacci numbers ( F n ( k ) ) n is defined by the recurrence F n ( k ) = ∑ j = 1 k F n − j ( k ) beginning with the k terms 0 , … , 0 , 1 . In this paper, we shall solve the Diophantine equation F n ( k ) = ( F m ( l ) ) 2 + 1 , in positive integers m , n , k and l.

The aim of this paper is to construct a relation between tribonacci numbers and generalized tribonacci numbers. Besides, certain conditions are obtained to generalize the representation of a positive integer [Formula: see text] which is determined in [S. Badidja and A. Boudaoud, Representation of positive integers as a sum of distinct tribonacci numbers, J. Math. Statistic. 13 (2017) 57–61] for a [Formula: see text]-generalized Fibonacci numbers [Formula: see text]. Lastly, some applications to cryptography are given by using [Formula: see text].

In this paper, we consider finite alternating sums derived from the generalized Fibonacci numbers [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are positive integers with [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. Applying the greatest integer function to these sums, we obtain some equalities involving the generalized Fibonacci numbers.

Let ( F n ) n ≥ 0 be the sequence of the Fibonacci numbers. The order (or rank) of appearance z ( n ) of a positive integer n is defined as the smallest positive integer m such that n divides F m . In 1975, Sallé proved that z ( n ) ≤ 2 n , for all positive integers n. In this paper, we shall solve the Diophantine equation z ( n ) = ( 2 − 1 / k ) n for positive integers n and k.

We consider equations of the form [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a polynomial with integral coefficients and [Formula: see text] is the [Formula: see text]th Fibonacci number that is, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] In particular, for each [Formula: see text], we prove the existence of a polynomial [Formula: see text] of degree [Formula: see text] such that the Diophantine equation [Formula: see text] has infinitely many solutions in positive integers [Formula: see text]. Moreover, we present results of our numerical search concerning the existence of even degree polynomials representing many Fibonacci numbers. We also determine all integral solutions [Formula: see text] of the Diophantine equations [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].

AbstractWe consider for integersk≥ 2 thek–generalized Fibonacci sequencesF(k):=$\begin{array}{} (F_n^{(k)})_{n\geq 2-k}, \end{array} $whose firstkterms are 0, …, 0, 1 and each term afterwards is the sum of the precedingkterms. In this paper, we show that there does not exist a quadruple of positive integersa1<a2<a3<a4such thataiaj+ 1 (i≠j) are all members ofF(k).

Abstract This paper concerns the problem of determining or estimating the maximal upper density of the sets of nonnegative integers S whose elements do not differ by an element of a given set M of positive integers. We find some exact values and some bounds for the maximal density when the elements of M are generalized Fibonacci numbers of odd order. The generalized Fibonacci sequence of order r is a generalization of the well known Fibonacci sequence, where instead of starting with two predetermined terms, we start with r predetermined terms and each term afterwards is the sum of r preceding terms. We also derive some new properties of the generalized Fibonacci sequence of order r. Furthermore, we discuss some related coloring parameters of distance graphs generated by the set M.

Consider the Diophantine equation yn=x+x(x+1)+⋯+x(x+1)⋯(x+k), where x, y, n, and k are integers. In 2016, a research article, entitled – ’power values of sums of products of consecutive integers’, primarily proved the inequality n= 19,736 to obtain all solutions (x,y,n) of the equation for the fixed positive integers k≤10. In this paper, we improve the bound as n≤ 10,000 for the same case k≤10, and for any fixed general positive integer k, we give an upper bound depending only on k for n.
