On the connections between Pell numbers and Fibonacci p-numbers

Abstract

In this paper, we define the Fibonacci–Pell p-sequence and then we discuss the connection of the Fibonacci–Pell p-sequence with the Pell and Fibonacci p-sequences. Also, we provide a new Binet formula and a new combinatorial representation of the Fibonacci–Pell p-numbers by the aid of the n-th power of the generating matrix of the Fibonacci–Pell p-sequence. Furthermore, we derive relationships between the Fibonacci–Pell p-numbers and their permanent, determinant and sums of certain matrices.
