Abstract

In this paper, we consider the Horadam sequence and some summationformulas involving the terms of the Horadam sequence. We derivecombinatorial identities by using the trace, the determinant, and thenth power of a special matrix.

Keywords

Second order linear recurrence, Horadam sequence, Generalized Fibonacci
