Some Divisibility Properties of Lucas Numbers

Abstract

The Lucas number sequence is a popular number sequence that has been described as similar to the Fibonacci number sequence. A lot of research has been done on this number sequence. Some of these studies are on the divisibility properties of this number sequence. Carlitz (1964) examined the requirement that a given Lucas number can be divided by another Lucas number. After that, many studies have been done on this subject. In the present article, we obtain some divisibility properties of the Lucas Numbers. First, we examine the case $L_{(2n-1)m}/L_{m}$ and then we obtain $L_{\left( 2n-1\right) m}$ using different forms of Lucas numbers.
