Abstract:Only one three-term recurrence relation, namely, W_{r}=2W_{r-1}-W_{r-4}, is known for the generalized Tribonacci numbers, W_r, r\in Z, defined by W_{r}=W_{r-1}+W_{r-2}+W_{r-3} and W_{-r}=W_{-r+3}-W_{-r+2}-W_{-r+1}, where W_0, W_1 and W_2 are given, arbitrary integers, not all zero. Also, only one four-term addition formula is known for these numbers, which is W_{r + s} = T_{s - 1} W_{r - 1} + (T_{s - 1} + T_{s-2} )W_r + T_s W_{r + 1}, where ({T_r})_{r\in Z} is the Tribonacci sequence, a special case of the gen… Show more
