Simple Exercises In The Operational Calculus

Fibonacci and Lucas Numbers

The formulas in the present paper are all simple exercises in the operational calculus ( once one knows it ). Formula involving a product of Fibonacci and Lucas Numbers:

     

Example 1.     L(2n) = L2(n) + 2*(-1)n+1
Solutions:
We use the next operational equation
(eD+e-D)F(n)=enD-(-1)ne-nD
For function F(a) we have:
[F(a+1)+F(a-1)]F(n)=F(a+n)-(-1)nF(a-n)
or
L(a)F(a)=F(a+n)-(-1)nF(a-n)
for a=2n and F(3n)=[L2(n)+(-1)n+1]F(n)
L(2n)=L2(n)+2*(-1)n+1

     

Example 2.     F(3a)=F(a)[L2(a)+(-1)a+1]
Solutions:
For n=2a we have
F(3a)=L(a)F(2a)+F(-a)
as F(-a)=(-1)a+1F(a) and F(2a)=L(a)F(a)
F(3a)=F(a)[L2(a)+(-1)a+1]

     

Example 3.     L(n)=2*Phi-sqrt(5)*F(n)
Solutions:
For function of the Golden Section, Phin, we have
(Phin+1+Phin-1)F(n)=Phi2n-(-1)n
or
(-1)nphin=Phin-(Phi+phi)F(n)
then
L(n)=2*Phin-(Phi+phi)F(n)
or
L(n)=2*Phi-sqrt(5)F(n)

     

Example 4.     L(n)=F(n+1)+F(n-1)
Solutions:
We use the next equation
L(n)=enD+(-1)ne-nD
For function F(a) we have
L(n)F(a)=F(a+n)+ (-1)nF(a-n)
For a=1
L(n)=F(n+1)+(-1)nF(1-n)
or
L(n)=F(n+1)+(-1)n(-1)nF(n-1)
So we have
L(n)=F(n+1)+F(n-1)

     

Example 5.     L(2n)=F2(n+1)+2*F2(n) +F2(n-1)
Solutions:
We use the next operational equation for Fibonacci and Lucas numbers
enD=F(n+1)+F(n)e-nD
For function L(a) we have
L(a+n)=F(n+1)L(a)+F(n)L(a-1)
for a=n
L(2n)=F(n+1)L(n)+F(n)L(n-1)
By using basic Fibonacci and Lucas equations we get
L(2n)=F2(n+1)+2*F2(n)+F2(n-1)

     

     

Example 6.     5*F(n)=L(n+1)+L(n-1)
Solutions:
We use the next basic equations:
L(n+1)+L(n-1)=F(n+2)+2*F(n)+F(n-2)=
F(n+1)+4*F(n)-F(n-1)=
=5*F(n)

     

     

Example 7.     2*L(2n)=L2(n)+5*F2(n)
Solutions:
We use the next operational equations for Fibonacci and Lucas numbers
2*enD=L(n)+F(n)*[eD+e-D]
For a function L(n) we have
2*L(2n)=L2(n)+F(n)[L(n+1)+L(n-1)]
or
2*L(2n)=L2(n)+5*F2(n)

     

     

Here are formula involving the Fibonacci numbers and Lucas numbers.May you solve this examples? Is there a equation you`d like to add? Please, email me your solutions.( Fibonacci and Lucas Formula). There is a possibility that I include your paper in a future www pages.

     

F(2n) = F(n) L(n) 2*L(n+1)=L(n)+5 F(n)
2*F(n+1)=L(n)+F(n) L(n + 1)2 + L(n)2 = 5 F(2n + 1)
L(n + 1)2 - L(n)2 = 5 F(2n) L(n + 1)2 - 5 F(n) = L(2n + 1)2
3*L(n)=L(n+2)+L(n-2) L(n)2 - 2 L(2n) = -5 F(n)2
F(n + 1) L(n) = F(2n + 1) + (-1)n F(n) L(m) = F(n + m) + (-1)m F(n - m)
L(n + 1) F(n) = F(2n + 1) - (-1)n 2*F(n+2)=L(n)+3*F(n)
F(2n + 1) = F(n + 1) L(n + 1) - F(n) L(n) L(n) F(m) = F(n + m) - (-1)m F(n - m)
L(2n + 1) = F(n + 1) L(n + 1) + F(n) L(n) F(3n)=L(2n)F(n)-F(-n)
5 F(n)2 - L(n)2 = 4 (-1)n + 1 5 (F(n)2 + F(n + 1)2) = L(n)2 + L(n + 1)2
