Hyper-Dual Leonardo Quaternions

Abstract

In this paper, hyper-dual Leonardo quaternions are defined and studied. Some basic properties of the hyper-dual Leonardo quaternions, including their relationships with the hyper-dual Fibonacci quaternions and hyper-dual Lucas quaternions, are analyzed. In addition, some formulae and identities, such as the recurrence relations, Binet's formula, generating functions, Vajda's identity, certain sum formulae, and some binomial-sum formulae, are investigated for hyper-dual Leonardo quaternions.
