We establish lower- and upper bounds for the size of these sets. These bounds are sharp for $n$ sufficiently large. We also develop bounds on the growth order of the terms of Lucas sequences that are independent of the parameters of the sequence, which is a new feature.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-08-09T10:24:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "lucas sequences", "th terms", "upper bounds", "growth order", "independent" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
