This paper considers algebraic independence and hypertranscendence of functions satisfying Mahler-type functional equations $af(z^{r})=f(z)+R(z)$, where $a$ is a nonzero complex number, $r$ an integer greater than 1, and $R(z)$ a rational function. Well-known results from the scope of Mahler’s method then imply algebraic independence over the rationals of the values of these functions at algebraic points. As an application, algebraic independence results on reciprocal sums of Fibonacci and Lucas numbers are obtained.

Let $F_{n}$ and $L_{n}$ be the Fibonacci and Lucas numbers, respectively. Four corresponding zeta functions in $s$ are defined by $$\begin{eqnarray}\unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{F}(s):=\mathop{\sum }_{n=1}^{\infty }{\displaystyle \frac{1}{F_{n}^{s}}},\quad \unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{F}^{\ast }(s):=\mathop{\sum }_{n=1}^{\infty }{\displaystyle \frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{F_{n}^{s}}},\quad \unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{L}(s):=\mathop{\sum }_{n=1}^{\infty }{\displaystyle \frac{1}{L_{n}^{s}}},\quad \unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{L}^{\ast }(s):=\mathop{\sum }_{n=1}^{\infty }{\displaystyle \frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{L_{n}^{s}}}.\end{eqnarray}$$ As a consequence of Nesterenko’s proof of the algebraic independence of the three Ramanujan functions $R(\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C}),Q(\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C}),$ and $P(\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C})$ for any algebraic number $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C}$ with $0<\unicode[STIX]{x1D70C}<1$ , the algebraic independence or dependence of various sets of these numbers is already known for positive even integers $s$ . In this paper, we investigate linear forms in the above zeta functions and determine the dimension of linear spaces spanned by such linear forms. In particular, it is established that for any positive integer $m$ the solutions of $$\begin{eqnarray}\mathop{\sum }_{s=1}^{m}(t_{s}\unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{F}(2s)+u_{s}\unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{F}^{\ast }(2s)+v_{s}\unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{L}(2s)+w_{s}\unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{L}^{\ast }(2s))=0\end{eqnarray}$$ with $t_{s},u_{s},v_{s},w_{s}\in \mathbb{Q}$ $(1\leq s\leq m)$ form a $\mathbb{Q}$ -vector space of dimension $m$ . This proves a conjecture from the Ph.D. thesis of Stein, who, in 2012, was inspired by the relation $-2\unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{F}(2)+\unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{F}^{\ast }(2)+5\unicode[STIX]{x1D701}_{L}^{\ast }(2)=0$ . All the results are also true for zeta functions in $2s$ , where the Fibonacci and Lucas numbers are replaced by numbers from sequences satisfying a second-order recurrence formula.

AbstractIn this paper we give some theoretical explanations related to the representation for the general solution of the system of the higher-order rational difference equations$$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle x_{n+1} = \dfrac{1+2y_{n-k}}{3+y_{n-k}},\qquad y_{n+1} = \dfrac{1+2z_{n-k}}{3+z_{n-k}},\qquad z_{n+1} = \dfrac{1+2x_{n-k}}{3+x_{n-k}}, \end{array}$$where n, k∈ ℕ0, the initial values x−k, x−k+1, …, x0, y−k, y−k+1, …, y0, z−k, z−k+1, …, z1 and z0 are arbitrary real numbers do not equal −3. This system can be solved in a closed-form and we will see that the solutions are expressed using the famous Fibonacci and Lucas numbers.

Observations of the sunflower Helianthus tuberosus reveal the occurrence of both Fibonacci and Lucas numbers of visible spirals (parastichies). This species is multi-headed, allowing a quantitative study of the relative abundance of these two types of phyllotaxis. The florets follow a spiral arrangement. It is remarkable that the Lucas series occurred, almost invariably, in the first-flowering heads of individual plants. The occurrence of left-and right-handed chirality was found to be random, within experimental error, using an appropriate chirality convention. Quantitative crystallographic studies allow the average growth law to be derived (r = alτ−1; θ = 2πl/(τ + 1), where a is a constant, l is the seed cell number and τ is the golden mean [Formula: see text]). They also reveal departures from classical theoretical models of phyllotaxis, taking the form of persistent oscillations in both divergence angle and radius. The experimental results are discussed in terms of a new theoretical model for the close-packing of growing discs. Finally, a basis for synthesis of (inorganic) spiral lattice structures is proposed.
