The Wall–Sun–Sun prime conjecture for Fibonacci numbers

About 6 years old · traced to

Let FmF_m denote the mmth Fibonacci number, and let (p5)\left(\frac{p}{5}\right) be the Legendre symbol for a prime number pp. Wall–Sun–Sun prime conjecture. There are no prime numbers pp such that

p2∣Fp−(p5).p^2\mid F_{p-\left(\frac{p}{5}\right)}.

Such primes are also called Fibonacci-Wieferich primes. The conjecture is used in the paper to deduce square-freeness results for odd integers dividing sums of initial Fibonacci numbers, but its resolution is not established in the supplied text.
