On the Properties of Generalized k-Pell like Sequence

Department of Mathematics, Indira Gandhi University, Meerpur (Rewari)-122502, Haryana, India

Abstract

The Pell sequence has been generalized in many ways, some by preserving the initial conditions, others by preserving the recurrence relation. In this paper, we define a new generalization {Mk,n}n=1, with initial conditions Mk,o = 2,Mk,1 = m + 2, which is generated by the recurrence relation Mk,n+1 = 2Mk,n + kMk,n-1 for n ╥ 1, where k,m are integer numbers. We produce an extended Binet's formula for Mk,n and thereby the identities such as Catalan's, Simpson's, d’ Ocagene's etc.
