Fibonacci Determinants

From MaRDI portal





Let \(\{M_n\}\) be a sequence of lower Hessenberg matrices such that \(M_n\) is the \(n\times n\) leading principal submatrix of \(M_{n+1}\). The authors derive a recurrence relation for the sequence \(\{\det M_n\}\). The main purpose is to point out that for certain choices of the sequence \(\{M_n\}\) the sequence \(\{\det M_n\}\) generates interesting special cases such as the Fibonacci and the Lucas sequences and their subsequences.
