Fibonacci representations with polynomial coefficients

TheoremInteger sequences with linear Fibonacci coefficients#●ready to prove

Let \(F_n\) be the \(n\)-th Fibonacci number and put \(F_{-1} = 1\), so that \(F_{n-1} = F_{n+1} - F_n\) for every \(n \ge 0\). For rational numbers \(a, b, c, d\), the number \(w_n = (an + b)F_n + (cn + d)F_{n-1}\) is an integer for every natural number \(n\) if and only if \(d\) is an integer and there are integers \(z_1, z_2, z_3\) with \(a = (-z_1 - 3z_2 + 2z_3)/5\), \(b = (6z_1 + 3z_2 - 2z_3)/5\) and \(c = (-2z_1 + 4z_2 - z_3)/5\).

The integers \(z_i\) are then determined by the sequence: \(z_1 = w_1\), \(z_2 = w_2 - d\) and \(z_3 = w_3 - d\).

Let \(F_n\) be the \(n\)-th Fibonacci number and put \(F_{-1} = 1\), so that \(F_{n-1} = F_{n+1} - F_n\) for every \(n \ge 0\). For rational numbers \(a, b, c, d, e, f\), the number \(w_n = (an^2 + bn + c)F_n + (dn^2 + en + f)F_{n-1}\) is an integer for every natural number \(n\) if and only if \(f\) is an integer and there are integers \(z_1, \dots, z_5\) with \(a = (-z_1 + 3z_2 + z_3 - 3z_4 + z_5)/10\), \(b = (-5z_1 - 75z_2 + 15z_3 + 45z_4 - 17z_5)/50\), \(c = (30z_1 + 30z_2 - 10z_3 - 15z_4 + 6z_5)/25\), \(d = (3z_1 - 4z_2 - 3z_3 + 4z_4 - z_5)/10\) and \(e = (-45z_1 + 80z_2 + 15z_3 - 40z_4 + 11z_5)/50\).

The integers \(z_i\) are then determined by the sequence: \(z_1 = w_1\), \(z_2 = w_2 - f\), \(z_3 = w_3 - f\), \(z_4 = w_4 - 2f\) and \(z_5 = w_5 - 3f\).

TheoremInteger sequences with linear Fibonacci coefficients and an alternating term#●ready to prove

Let \(F_n\) be the \(n\)-th Fibonacci number and put \(F_{-1} = 1\), so that \(F_{n-1} = F_{n+1} - F_n\) for every \(n \ge 0\). For rational numbers \(a, b, c, d, e, f\), the number \(w_n = (an + b)F_n + (cn + d)F_{n-1} + e + f(-1)^n\) is an integer for every natural number \(n\) if and only if there are integers \(v_0, \dots, v_5\) with \(a = (3v_0 + 2v_1 - 7v_2 - v_3 + 4v_4 - v_5)/5\), \(b = (-3v_0 - 2v_1 - 3v_2 + 6v_3 + 6v_4 - 4v_5)/5\), \(c = (-4v_0 - v_1 + 11v_2 - 2v_3 - 7v_4 + 3v_5)/5\), \(d = -2v_1 + v_2 + 2v_3 - v_4\), \(e = (v_0 + 3v_1 + v_2 - 3v_3 - v_4 + v_5)/2\) and \(f = (v_0 + v_1 - 3v_2 - v_3 + 3v_4 - v_5)/2\).

These integers are then the initial values of the sequence: \(v_i = w_i\) for \(0 \le i \le 5\).
