On two-parameters generalization of Fibonacci numbers
Journal Title: Mathematica Applicanda. Annales Societatis Mathematicae Polonae Series III . - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
In this paper we introduce a new two-parameters generalization of Fibonacci numbers – distance s-Fibonacci numbers Fs(k, n). We generalize the known distance Fibonacci numbers by adding an additional integer parameter s. We give combinatorial and graph interpretations of these numbers. Moreover, we present some properties of distance s-Fibonacci numbers, which generalize known properties of classical Fibonacci and Padovan numbers.

The use of certain staffing requirements as a means of benchmarking academic staff structure
Considering the statutory staffing requirements by the National Universities Commission in Nigeria, this study develops a model to benchmark the academic staff structure that will meet the staffing requirements. The mode...
On graduation of enrolment size in a multi-echelon educational system
This paper focuses on an educational system wherein demotion and double promotion are not allowed. The total enrolment in such a system is modelled as a linear model within the context of factor analysis. The goal is to...
Approximative solutions of optimal stopping and selection problems
In this paper we review a series of developments over the last 15 years in which a general method for the approximative solution of finite discrete time optimal stopping and choice problems has been developed. This metho...
A refined and asymptotic analysis of optimal stopping problems of Bruss and Weber
The classical secretary problem has been generalized over the years into several directions. In this paper we confine our interest to those generalizations which have to do with the more general problem of stopping on a...
Extremal particles in branching processess
The purpose of this study is to investigate two related spatial branchingmodels with the unbounded branching intensity. The objective is to describe theasymptotic behaviour of the extremal particle.
