Let $a_1,a_2,\\dots,a_l$ be positive integers such that their greatest common divisor is one. For a nonnegative integer $p$, denote the $p$-Frobenius number by $g_p(a_1,a_2,\\dots,a_l)$, which is the largest integer that can be represented at most $p$ ways by a linear combination with nonnegative integer coefficients of $a_1,a_2,\\dots,a_l$. When $p=0$, $0$-Frobenius number is the classical Frobenius number. When $l=2$, $p$-Frobenius number is explicitly given. However, when $l=3$ and even larger, even in special cases, it is not easy to give the Frobenius number explicitly, and it is even more difficult when $p>0$, and no specific example has been known. However, very recently, we have succeeded in giving explicit formulas for the case where the sequence is of triangular numbers or of repunits for the case where $l=3$. In this paper, we show the explicit formula for the Fibonacci triple when $p>0$. In addition, we give an explicit formula for the $p$-Sylvester number, that is, the total number of nonnegative integers that can be represented in at most $p$ ways. Furthermore, explicit formulas are shown concerning the Lucas triple.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-06-12T04:54:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11D07", "05A15", "05A17", "05A19", "11B68", "11D04", "11P81", "20M14" ], "keywords": [ "frobenius number", "explicit formula", "fibonacci triplet", "nonnegative integer", "representations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
