On the Periods of Generalized Fibonacci Recurrences1

نویسنده

  • Richard P. Brent
چکیده

We give a simple condition for a linear recurrence (mod 2w) of degree r to have themaximal possible period 2w 1(2r 1). It follows that the period is maximal in the casesof interest for pseudo-random number generation, i.e. for 3-term linear recurrences de nedby trinomials which are primitive (mod 2) and of degree r > 2. We consider the enumera-tion of certain exceptional polynomials which do not give maximal period, and list all suchpolynomials of degree less than 15.

Non-Abelian Sequenceable Groups Involving ?-Covers

A non-abelian finite group is called sequenceable if for some positive integer , is -generated ( ) and there exist integers such that every element of is a term of the -step generalized Fibonacci sequence , , , . A remarkable application of this definition may be find on the study of random covers in the cryptography. The 2-step generalized sequences for the dihedral groups studi...

A Generalized Fibonacci Sequence and the Diophantine Equations $x^2pm kxy-y^2pm x=0$

In this paper some properties of a generalization of Fibonacci sequence are investigated. Then we solve the Diophantine equations $x^2pmkxy-y^2pm x=0$, where $k$ is positive integer, and describe the structure of solutions.

Energy of Graphs, Matroids and Fibonacci Numbers

The energy E(G) of a graph G is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of G. In this article we consider the problem whether generalized Fibonacci constants $varphi_n$ $(ngeq 2)$ can be the energy of graphs. We show that $varphi_n$ cannot be the energy of graphs. Also we prove that all natural powers of $varphi_{2n}$ cannot be the energy of a matroid.

Electronic transport through dsDNA based junction: a Fibonacci model

A numerical study is presented to investigate the electronic transport properties through a synthetic DNA molecule based on a quasiperiodic arrangement of its constituent nucleotides. Using a generalized Green's function technique, the electronic conduction through the poly(GACT)-poly(CTGA) DNA molecule in a metal/DNA/metal model structure has been studied. Making use of a renormalization schem...

Fibonacci Sequences of Quaternions

In this paper Fibonacci sequences of quaternions are introduced, generalizing Fibonacci sequences over commutative rings, and properties of such sequences are investigated. In particular we are concerned with two kinds of Fibonacci sequences of generalized quaternions over finite fields Fp, with p an odd prime, and their periods.
