ADDENDA TO "PYTHAGOREAN TRIPLES CONTAINING FIBONACCI NUMBERS: SOLUTIONS FOR Fn

چکیده
then the Fibonacci numbers are given by Fn = Fn (1), and the Pell numbers are Pn = Fn(2). Cohn [4] has proved that the only perfect squares among the sequences {Fn(a)}9 a odd, are 0 and 1, and whenever a = k, a itself. Certain cases are known for a even [5]. The cited results of Cohn and Ljunggren mean that Conjectures 2.3,3.2, and 4.2 of [3] are true, and that the earlier results can be strengthened as follows. If (n,k) = 1, there are no solutions in positive integers for F%(a) + F£ (a) = K, n > k > 0, when a is odd and a >_ 3.

The Fibonacci Numbers—Exposed
Among numerical sequences, the Fibonacci numbers Fn have achieved a kind of celebrity status. Indeed, Koshy gushingly refers to them as one of the “two shining stars in the vast array of integer sequences” [16, p. xi]. The second of Koshy’s “shining stars” is the Lucas numbers, a close relative of the Fibonacci numbers, about which we will say more below. The Fibonacci numbers are famous for po...
متن کاملSome Properties of Fibonacci Numbers
We formalized some basic properties of the Fibonacci numbers using definitions and lemmas from [7] and [23], e.g. Cassini’s and Catalan’s identities. We also showed the connections between Fibonacci numbers and Pythagorean triples as defined in [31]. The main result of this article is a proof of Carmichael’s Theorem on prime divisors of prime-generated Fibonacci numbers. According to it, if we ...
متن کاملA Curious Property of Series Involving Terms of Generalized Sequences
Here we are concerned with series involving generalized Fibonacci numbers Un(p,q) and generalized Lucas numbers Vn(p,q). The aim of this paper is to find triples (p,q,r) for which the seriesUn(p,q)/rn and Vn(p,q)/rn (for r running from 0 to infinity) are unconcerned at the introduction of the factor n. The results established in this paper generalize the known fact that the series Fn/2n (Fn the...
متن کاملThe Modular Tree of Pythagorus
The Pythagorean triples of integers satisfying x + y = z have been studied and enumerated since Babylonian times. Since Diophantus, it has been known that this set of triples is related to the standard rational parameterization of the unit circle, ( t 2−1 t2+1 , 2t t2+1 ). The Pythagorean triple solutions, which are relatively prime, have the elementary and beautiful characterization as integer...
متن کاملParametrization of Pythagorean triples by a single triple of polynomials
It is well known that Pythagorean triples can be parametrized by two triples of polynomials with integer coefficients. We show that no single triple of polynomials with integer coefficients in any number of variables is sufficient, but that there exists a parametrization of Pythagorean triples by a single triple of integer-valued polynomials. The second author has recently studied polynomial pa...
