Analysis of Quadratic Diophantine Equations with Fibonacci Number Solutions
Leyendekkers, J. V.; Shannon, A. G.
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v35 n6 p932-936 Nov 2004
An analysis is made of the role of Fibonacci numbers in some quadratic Diophantine equations. A general solution is obtained for finding factors in sums of Fibonacci numbers. Interpretation of the results is facilitated by the use of a modular ring which also permits extension of the analysis.
