Not to be confused with the sequence of Lucas numbers, which is a particular Lucas sequence.
In mathematics, the Lucas sequences and are certain constant-recursive integer sequences that satisfy the recurrence relation
where and are fixed integers. Any sequence satisfying this recurrence relation can be represented as a linear combination of the Lucas sequences and
More generally, Lucas sequences and represent sequences of polynomials in and with integer coefficients.
Famous examples of Lucas sequences include the Fibonacci numbers, Mersenne numbers, Pell numbers, Lucas numbers, Jacobsthal numbers, and a superset of Fermat numbers (see below). Lucas sequences are named after the French mathematician Édouard Lucas.
