Some properties of Padovan matrices and bi-periodic Padovan matrices
Diana Savin
Abstract
Let $\left(P_{n}\right)_{n\geq0}$ be the sequence of bi-periodic Padovan numbers and let $\left(M_{p_{n}}\right)_{n\geq0}$ be the sequence of bi-periodic Padovan matrices. In this article we study when these matrices are diagonalizable and we obtain a certain connection with the Lucas number sequence. We also obtain some connections of these matrices with the generating matrix $Q$ for the Padovan numbers.
