This paper is devoted to the newly defined families of associated sequences of real polynomials and numbers that arose on a base of quaternions. We present not only the explicit and recurrent formulae for these sequences, but also summation and reduction ones. Some (but not all) of these sequences can be found in OEIS. Moreover, the obtained results also speak a lot about the quaternions structure itself. Also, while examining matrices related to these sequences we discovered some general formulae for powers of so-called arrowhead matrices.
Undoubtedly, one of the most powerful applications that allow symbolic computations is Wolfram Mathematica. However, it turns out that sometimes Mathematica does not give the desired result despite its continuous improvement. Moreover, these gaps are not filled by many authors of books and tutorials. For example, our attempts to obtain a compact symbolic description of the roots of polynomials or coefficients of a polynomial with known roots using Mathematica have often failed and they still fail. Years of our work with theory, computations, and different kinds of applications in the area of polynomials indicate that an application ‘offering’ the user alternative methods of solving a given problem would be extremely useful. Such an application would be valuable not only for people who look for solutions to very specific problems but also for people who need different descriptions of solutions to known problems than those given by classical methods. Therefore, we propose the development of an application that would be not only a program doing calculations but also containing an interactive database about polynomials. In this paper, we present examples of methods and information which could be included in the described project.
In this paper, we introduce generalizations of Quaternacci sequences (Quaternaccis), called Split Quaternacci sequences, which arose on a base of split quaternion algebras. Explicit and recurrent formulae for Split Quaternacci sequences are given, as well as generating functions. Also, matrices related to Split Quaternaccis sequences are investigated. Moreover, new identities connecting Horadam sequences with other known sequences are generated. Analogous identities for Horadam quaternions and split Horadam quaternions are proved.
