Even- extension of rank and order properties for -Fibonacci sequences
Even- extension of rank and order properties for -Fibonacci sequences
Let be even, and let be the -Fibonacci sequence. For a modulus , let denote its Pisano period, let denote the number of zeros in that period, and let denote the index of the first zero. Even- extension conjecture. For every modulus , the following statements hold:
- if and only if .
- If , then and .
- If , then .
These are proposed as portions of the odd- theorem that might extend to even . The source later gives a counterexample to the converse of the third assertion, but that does not refute the three one-way assertions stated here.
