In this paper we introduce a Ramsey type function $S(r;a,b,c)$ as the maximum $s$ such that for any $r$-coloring of ${\Bbb N}$ there is a monochromatic sequence $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_s$ satisfying a homogeneous second order linear recurrence $ax_i+bx_{i+1}+cx_{i+2}=0$, $1\leq i\leq s-2$. We investigate $S(2;a,b,c)$ and evaluate its values for a wide class of triples $(a,b,c)$.

We extend a technique recently introduced by Chen Zhuoyu and Qi Lan in order to find convolution formulas for second order linear recurrence polynomials generated by 1 1 + a t + b t 2 x . The case of generating functions containing parameters, even in the numerator is considered. Convolution formulas and general recurrence relations are derived. Many illustrative examples and a straightforward extension to the case of matrix polynomials are shown.

We show that if a is an even integer then for every ξ ∈ R the smallest limit point of the sequence ||ξan||∞n=1 does not exceed |a|/(2|a| + 2) and this bound is best possible in the sense that for some ξ this constant cannot be improved. Similar (best possible) bound is also obtained for the smallest limit point of the sequence ||ξxn||∞n=1, where (xn)∞n=1 satisfies the second order linear recurrence xn = axn−1 + bxn−2 with a, b ∈ N satisfying a > b. For the Fibonacci sequence (Fn)∞n=1 our result implies that supξ∈R lim infn→∞ ||ξFn|| = 1/5, and e.g., in case when a > 3 is an odd integer, b = 1 and θ := a/2 + p a 2/4 + 1 it shows that supξ∈R lim infn→∞ ||ξθn|| = (a − 1)/2a.

The main object of the present paper is to reveal connections between Mersenne numbers $M_n=2^n-1$ and generalized Fibonacci (i.e., Horadam) numbers $w_n$ defined by a second order linear recurrence $w_n=pw_{n-1}+qw_{n-2}$, $n\geq 2$, with $w_0=a$ and $w_1=b$, where $a$, $b$, $p>0$ and $q\ne0$ are integers. This is achieved by relating the respective (ordinary and exponential) generating functions to each other. Several explicit examples involving Fibonacci, Lucas, Pell, Jacobsthal and balancing numbers are stated to highlight the results.

The main aim of this paper is that for any second-order linear recurrence sequence, the generating function of which is f ( t ) = 1 1 + a t + b t 2 , we can give the exact coefficient expression of the power series expansion of f x ( t ) for x ∈ R with elementary methods and symmetry properties. On the other hand, if we take some special values for a and b, not only can we obtain the convolution formula of some important polynomials, but also we can establish the relationship between polynomials and themselves. For example, we can find relationship between the Chebyshev polynomials and Legendre polynomials.
