Some well-known sequences are special cases of this\rgeneralization. The Fibonacci sequence is a special case of (F(k)\rn )n?2?k with k = 2 and Tribonacci sequence is\r(F(k)\rn )n?2?k with k = 3. In this paper, we use Baker’s method to show that 4, 16, 64, 208, 976, and 1936 are all\rk -Fibonacci numbers of the form (3a ± 1)(3b ± 1), where a and b are nonnegative integerseninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAn exponential equation involving k-Fibonacci numbersArticle26776266452851145
