Pell identities via a quadratic field

In this article, we derive a number of identities involving both Pell numbers and binomial coefficients. We also consider briefly the potential for obtaining Pell identities involving trinomial coefficients and beyond. A key point is the simplicity of the derivations, and indeed this work can lead on to a number of interesting explorations for first-year undergraduates.     

A generalization of generalized Fibonacci and generalized Pell numbers

This paper is concerned with developing a new class of generalized numbers. The main advantage of this class is that it generalizes the two classes of generalized Fibonacci numbers and generalized Pell numbers. Some new identities involving these generalized numbers are obtained. In addition, the two well-known identities of Sury and Marques which are recently developed are deduced as special cases. Moreover, some other interesting identities involving the celebrated Fibonacci, Lucas, Pell and Pell–Lucas numbers are also deduced.     

Identities involving Narayana polynomials and Catalan numbers

We first establish the result that the Narayana polynomials can be represented as the integrals of the Legendre polynomials. Then we represent the Catalan numbers in terms of the Narayana polynomials by three different identities. We give three different proofs for these identities, namely, two algebraic proofs and one combinatorial proof. Some applications are also given which lead to many known and new identities.     

The infinite sum of reciprocal Pell numbers

In this paper, we consider infinite sums derived from the reciprocals of the Pell numbers. Then applying the floor function to the reciprocals of this sums, we obtain a new and interesting identity involving the Pell numbers.     

Combinatorial numbers in binary recurrences

We give several effective and explicit results concerning the values of some polynomials in binary recurrence sequences. First we provide an effective finiteness theorem for certain combinatorial numbers (binomial coefficients, products of consecutive integers, power sums, alternating power sums) in binary recurrence sequences, under some assumptions. We also give an efficient algorithm (based on genus 1 curves) for determining the values of certain degree 4 polynomials in such sequences. Finally, partly by the help of this algorithm we completely determine all combinatorial numbers of the above type for the small values of the parameter involved in the Fibonacci, Lucas, Pell and associated Pell sequences.      

Combinatorial Proofs of Various q-Pell Identities via Tilings

Recently, Benjamin, Plott, and Sellers proved a variety of identities involving sums of Pell numbers combinatorially by interpreting both sides of a given identity as enumerators of certain sets of tilings using white squares, black squares, and gray dominoes. In this article, we state and prove q-analogues of several Pell identities via weighted tilings.

Another proof of Pell identities by using the determinant of tridiagonal matrix

In this paper, another proof of Pell identities is presented by using the determinant of tridiagonal matrix. It is calculated via the Laplace expansion.     

On matrices related with Fibonacci and Lucas numbers

In this paper, we obtain some new results on matrices related with Fibonacci numbers and Lucas numbers. Also, we derive the relation between Pell numbers and its companion sequence by using our representations.     

Identities for generalized Fibonacci numbers: a combinatorial approach

This note shows a combinatorial approach to some identities for generalized Fibonacci numbers. While it is a straightforward task to prove these identities with induction, and also by arithmetical manipulations such as rearrangements, the approach used here is quite simple to follow and eventually reduces the proof to a counting problem.     

Riordan 矩阵的$(m,r,s)$-Halves

Riordan矩阵的垂直一半和水平一半已经被许多学者分别研究过.本文给出了Riordan矩阵的$(m,r,s)$-halves的定义.利用此定义能够统一的讨论Riordan矩阵的垂直一半和水平一半.作为应用,通过对Pascal和Delannoy矩阵的$(m,r,s)$-halves的研究,可以得到了一些与Fibonacci, Pell和Jacobsthal序列相关的等式.     

New identities involving generalized Fibonacci and generalized Lucas numbers

This paper presents two new identities involving generalized Fibonacci and generalized Lucas numbers. One of these identities generalize the two well-known identities of Sury and Marques which are recently developed. Some other interesting identities involving the famous numbers of Fibonacci, Lucas, Pell and Pell-Lucas numbers are also deduced as special cases of the two derived identities. Performing some mathematical operations on the introduced identities yield some other new identities involving generalized Fibonacci and generalized Lucas numbers.     

The generalized order-k Fibonacci–Pell sequence by matrix methods

In this paper, we consider the usual and generalized order-k Fibonacci and Pell recurrences, then we define a new recurrence, which we call generalized order-k F–P sequence. Also we present a systematic investigation of the generalized order-k F–P sequence. We give the generalized Binet formula, some identities and an explicit formula for sums of the generalized order-k F–P sequence by matrix methods. Further, we give the generating function and combinatorial representations of these numbers. Also we present an algorithm for computing the sums of the generalized order-k Pell numbers, as well as the Pell numbers themselves.     

A generalization of the formula for the triangular number of the sum and product of natural numbers

This note generalizes the formula for the triangular number of the sum and product of two natural numbers to similar results for the triangular number of the sum and product of r natural numbers. The formula is applied to derive formula for the sum of an odd and an even number of consecutive triangular numbers.     

Shortened recurrence relations for Bernoulli numbers

Starting with two little-known results of Saalschütz, we derive a number of general recurrence relations for Bernoulli numbers. These relations involve an arbitrarily small number of terms and have Stirling numbers of both kinds as coefficients. As special cases we obtain explicit formulas for Bernoulli numbers, as well as several known identities.     

Classroom note: The integrity of certain series

In this note, using the theory of Pell equation, the authors discuss the integrity of certain series involving generalized Fibonacci and Lucas numbers.     

Sums of products of Cauchy numbers

In this paper, we consider a kind of sums involving Cauchy numbers, which have not been studied in the literature. By means of the method of coefficients, we give some properties of the sums. We further derive some recurrence relations and establish a series of identities involving the sums, Stirling numbers, generalized Bernoulli numbers, generalized Euler numbers, Lah numbers, and harmonic numbers. In particular, we generalize some relations between two kinds of Cauchy numbers and some identities for Cauchy numbers and Stirling numbers.     

q-Pell sequences and two identities of V.A. Lebesgue

We examine a pair of Rogers-Ramanujan type identities of Lebesgue, and give polynomial identities for which the original identities are limiting cases. The polynomial identities turn out to be q-analogs of the Pell sequence. Finally, we provide combinatorial interpretations for the identities.     

Euler-Seidel method for certain combinatorial numbers and a new characterization of Fibonacci sequence

In this paper we use the Euler-Seidel method for deriving new identities for hyperharmonic and r-Stirling numbers. The exponential generating function is determined for hyperharmonic numbers, which result is a generalization of Gosper’s identity. A classification of second order recurrence sequences is also given with the help of this method.      

Certain singular integral operators revisited

This note presents an alternate approach to the analysis of the composition of some (classical) singular integral oprators that arise in a number of applications. It is based on the facts that certain naturally paired operators have the same range and are injective. In the course of this analysis the proofs of some classical identities are unified
