I the usual otatio, put (1.1) F _<**-{? = -=- -, L = a a + /3 a - p ^ where (1.2) a = (1 +V5), p = 4(1 - V5) f * 2 = or + 1, 2 = + 1, ap = -1 It is rather obvious that polyomial idetities ca be used i cojuctio with (1.1) ad (1.2) to produce Fiboacci ad Lucas idetities. For example, by the biomial theorem* 2 a <» " - 1 : ("V s which gives tt-3) F 2 = E ( s ) F s L 2 = E (, s /) L s * ad ideed Supported i part by NSF Grat GP
