The complex-type Padovan-p sequences

Abstract

In this paper, we define the complex-type Padovan-p sequence and then give the relationships between the Padovan-p numbers and the complex-type Padovan-p numbers. Also, we provide a new Binet formula and a new combinatorial representation of the complex-type Padovan-p numbers by the aid of the nth power of the generating matrix of the complex-type Padovan-p sequence. In addition, we derive various properties of the complex-type Padovan-p numbers such as the permanental, determinantal and exponential representations and the finite sums by matrix methods.
