On Third-Order Bronze Fibonacci Numbers

Abstract

In this study, we firstly obtain De Moivre-type identities for the second-order Bronze Fibonacci sequences. Next, we construct and define the third-order Bronze Fibonacci, third-order Bronze Lucas and modified third-order Bronze Fibonacci sequences. Then, we define the generalized third-order Bronze Fibonacci sequence and calculate the De Moivre-type identities for these sequences. Moreover, we find the generating functions, Binet’s formulas, Cassini’s identities and matrix representations of these sequences and examine some interesting identities related to the third-order Bronze Fibonacci sequences. Finally, we present an encryption and decryption application that uses our obtained results and we present an illustrative example.
