In this paper, we study the problem of the explicit intersection of two sequences. More specifically, we find all repdigits (i.e., numbers with only one repeated digit in its decimal expansion) which can be written as the product of a Fibonacci by a Tribonacci number (both with the same indexes). To work on this problem, our approach is to combine lower bounds from the Baker’s theory with reduction methods (based on the theory of continued fractions) due to Dujella and Pethö.

In this paper, we prove that F 22 = 17711 is the largest Fibonacci number whose decimal expansion is of the form a b … b c … c . The proof uses lower bounds for linear forms in three logarithms of algebraic numbers and some tools from Diophantine approximation.

A continued fraction is an expression of the formThe expression can continue for ever, in which case it is called aninfinitecontinued fraction, or it can stop after some term, when we call it afinitecontinued fraction. For irrational numbers, a continued fraction expansion often reveals beautiful number patterns which remain obscured in their decimal expansion. The interested reader is referred to [1] for a collection of many interesting continued fractions for famous mathematical constants.

AbstractIn this paper, by using lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers and the theory of continued fractions, we find all Fibonacci numbers that appear in generalized Pell sequences. Some interesting estimations involving generalized Pell numbers, that we believe are of independent interest, are also deduced. This paper continues a previous work that searched for Fibonacci numbers in the Pell sequence.

For any integer k≥2, the sequence of the k-generalized Fibonacci numbers (or k-bonacci numbers) is defined by the k initial values F−(k−2)(k)=⋯=F0(k)=0 and F1(k)=1 and such that each term afterwards is the sum of the k preceding ones. In this paper, we search for repdigits (i.e., a number whose decimal expansion is of the form aa…a, with a∈[1,9]) in the sequence (Fn(k)Fn(k+m))n, for m∈[1,9]. This result generalizes a recent work of Bednařík and Trojovská (the case in which (k,m)=(2,1)). Our main tools are the transcendental method (for Diophantine equations) together with the theory of continued fractions (reduction method).

Abstract Let $$ (T_{n})_{n\ge 0} $$ ( T n ) n ≥ 0 be the sequence of Tribonacci numbers defined by $$ T_0=0 $$ T 0 = 0 , $$ T_1=T_2=1$$ T 1 = T 2 = 1 , and $$ T_{n+3}= T_{n+2}+T_{n+1} +T_n$$ T n + 3 = T n + 2 + T n + 1 + T n for all $$ n\ge 0 $$ n ≥ 0 . In this note, we use of lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers and the Baker-Davenport reduction procedure to find all Tribonacci numbers that are concatenations of two repdigits.

Let f(n) or the base-2 logarithm of f(n) be either d(n) (the divisor function), ?(n) (the divisor-sum function), ?(n) (the Euler totient function), ?(n) (the number of distinct prime factors of n) or ?(n) (the total number of prime factors of n). We present good lower bounds for |M/N ? ?| in terms of N, where ? = [0; f(1), f(2),...].

In this paper, we use Baker’s theory for nonzero linear forms in logarithms of algebraic numbers and a Baker-Davenport reduction procedure to find all repdigits (i.e., numbers with only one distinct digit in its decimal expansion, thus they can be seen as the easiest case of palindromic numbers, which are a ”symmetrical” type of numbers) that can be written in the form Fn+Tn, for some n≥1, where (Fn)n≥0 and (Tn)n≥0 are the sequences of Fibonacci and Tribonacci numbers, respectively.
