13. $r_k = 2r^{k - 1} - r^{k - 2}$, for each integer $k \geq 2$
|
||||
$r_0 = 1, r_1 = 4$
|

18. Suppose that the sequences $s_0, s_1, s_2, \dots$ and $t_0, t_1, t_2, \dots$
|
||||
both satisfy the same second-order linear homogeneous recurrence relation
|
||||
with constant coefficients:

|
||||
|
||||
Show that the sequence $2s_0 + 3t_0, 2s_1 + 3t_1, 2s_2 + 3t_2, \dots$ also
|
||||
satisfies the same relation. In other words, show that
|

$$ 2s_k + 3t_k = 5(2s_{k - 1} + 3t_{k - 1}) - 4(2s_{k - 2} + 3t_{k - 2}) $$

for each integer $k \geq 2$. Do _not_ use Lemma 5.8.2.
|
||||
|
||||
19. Show that if $r, s, a_0$, and $a_1$ are numbers with $r \neq s$, then there
|
||||
exist unique numbers $C$ and $D$ so that

20. Show that if $r$ is a nonzero real number, $k$ and $m$ are distinct
|
||||
integers, and $a_k$ and $a_m$ are any real numbers, then there exist unique
|
||||
real numbers $C$ and $D$ so that
|
||||
|
||||
$$ Cr^k + kDr^k = a_k $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ Cr^m + mDr^m = a_m $$
|
||||
|
||||
21. Prove Theorem 5.8.5 for the case where the values of $C$ and $D$ are
|
||||
determined by $a_0$ and $a_1$.
|
||||
|
||||
Exercises 22 and 23 are intended for students who are familiar with complex
|
||||
numbers.
|
||||
|
||||
22. Find an explicit formula for a sequence $a_0, a_1, a_2, \dots$ that
|
||||
satisfies
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_k = 2a_{k - 1} - 2a_{k - 1} \quad \text{ for every integer } k \geq 2 $$
|
||||
|
||||
with initial conditions $a_0 = 1$ and $a_1 = 2$.
|
||||
|
||||
23. Find an explicit formula for a sequence $b_0, b_1, b_2, \dots$ that
|
||||
satisfies
|
||||
|
||||
$$ b_k = 2b_{k - 1} - 5b_{k - 2} \quad \text{ for each integer } k \geq 2 $$
|
||||
|
||||
with initial conditions $b_0 = 1$ and $b_1 = 1$.
|
||||
|
||||
24. The numbers $\dfrac{1 + \sqrt{5}}{2}$ and $\dfrac{1 - \sqrt{5}}{2}$ that
|
||||
appear in the explicit formula for the Fibonacci sequence are related to a
|
||||
quantity called the _golden ratio_ in Greek mathematics. Consider a
|
||||
rectangle of length $\phi$ units and height $1$, where $\phi > 1$.
|
||||
|
||||
See page 387 for picture.
|
||||
|
||||
Divide the rectangle into a rectangle and a square as shown in the preceding
|
||||
diagram. The square is $1$ unit on each side, and the rectangle has sides of
|
||||
length $1$ and $\phi - 1$. The ancient Greeks considered the outer rectangle to
|
||||
be perfectly proportioned (saying that the lengths of its sides are in a _golden
|
||||
ratio_ to each other) if the ratio of the length to the width of the outer
|
||||
rectangle equals the ratio of the length to the width of the inner rectangle.
|
||||
That is, if the number $\phi$ satisfies the equation
|
||||
|
||||
$$ \frac{\phi}{1} = \frac{1}{\phi - 1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
a. Show that if $\phi$ satisfies the equation above, then it also satisfies the
|
||||
quadratic equation: $t^2 - t - 1 = 0$.
|
||||
|
||||
b. Find the two solutions of $t^2 - t - 1 = 0$ and call them $\phi_1$ and
|
||||
$\phi_2$.
|
||||
|
||||
c. Express the explicit formula for the Fibonacci sequence in terms of $\phi_1$
|
||||
and $\phi_2$.

If $r_0, r_1, r_2, \dots$ and $s_0, s_1, s_2, \dots$ are sequences that satisfy
|
||||
the same second-order linear homogeneous recurrence relation with constant
|
||||
coefficients, and if $C$ and $D$ are _any_ numbers, then the sequence

$a_0, a_1, a_2, \dots$ defined by the formula

||||
|

$$ a_n = Cr_n +Ds_n \quad \text{ for every integer } n \geq 0 $$
|
||||
|
||||
also satisfies the same recurrence relation.
|
||||
|
||||
**Proof:**
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose $r_0, r_1, r_2, \dots$, and $s_0, s_1, s_2, \dots$ are sequences that
|
||||
satisfy the same second-order linear homogeneous recurrence relation with
|
||||
constant coefficients. In other words, suppose that for some real numbers $A$
|
||||
and $B$,
|
||||
|
||||
$$ r_k = Ar_{k - 1} + Br_{k - 2} \quad \text{ and } \quad s_k = As_{k - 1} + Bs_{k - 2} $$
|
||||
|

for every integer $k \geq 2$. Suppose also that $C$ and $D$ are any numbers. Let
|
||||
$a_0, a_1, a_2, \dots$ be the sequence defined by
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_n = Cr_n + Ds_n \quad \text{ for every integer } n \geq 0 $$
|
||||
|
||||
_[We must show that $a_0, a_1, a_2, \dots$ satisfies the same recurrence
|
||||
relation as $r_0, r_1, r_2, \dots$ and $s_0, s_1, s_2, \dots$. That is we must
|
||||
show that $a_k = Aa_{k - 1} + Ba_{k - 2}$, for every integer $k \geq 2$.]_
|
||||
|
||||
For every integer $k \geq 2$,
|
||||
|
||||
$$ Aa_{k - 1} + Ba_{k - 2} = A(Cr_{k - 1} + Ds_{k - 1}) + B(Cr_{k - 2} + Ds_{k - 2}) $$

$$ = C(Ar_{k - 1} + Br{k - 2}) + D(As_{k - 1} + Bs_{k - 2}) $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ = Cr_k + Ds_k $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ = a_k $$
|
||||

Hence $a_0, a_1, a_2, \dots$ satisfies the same recurrence relation as

**Theorem 5.8.3 Distinct-Roots Theorem**
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose a sequence $a_0, a_1, a_2, \dots$ satisfies a recurrence relation
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_k = Aa_{k - 1} + Ba_{k - 2} $$
|
||||
|
||||
for some real numbers $A$ and $B$ with $B \neq 0$ and every integer $k \geq 2$.
|
||||
If the characteristic equation
|
||||
|
||||
$$ t^2 - At - B = 0 $$
|
||||
|
||||
has two distinct roots $r$ and $s$, then $a_0, a_1, a_2, \dots$ is given by the
|
||||
explicit formula
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_n = Cr^n + Ds^n $$
|
||||
|
||||
where $C$ and $D$ are the numbers whose values are determined by the values
|
||||
$a_0$ and $a_1$.
|
||||
|
||||
**Proof:**
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose that for some real numbers $A$ and $B$, a sequence
|
||||
$a_0, a_1, a_2, \dots$ satisfies the recurrence relation
|
||||
$a_k = Aa_{k - 1} + Ba_{k - 2}$, for every integer $k \geq 2$, and suppose the
|
||||
characteristic equation $t^2 - At - B = 0$ has two distinct roots $r$ and $s$.
|
||||
We will show that
|
||||
|
||||
$$ \text{for every integer } n \geq 0, \quad a_n = Cr^n + Ds^n $$
|
||||
|
||||
where $C$ and $D$ are numbers such that
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_0 = Cr^0 + Ds^0 \quad \text{ and } \quad a_1 = Cr^1 + Ds^1 $$
|
||||
|
||||
Let $P(n)$ be the equation
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_n = Cr^n + Ds^n $$
|
||||
|
||||
We use strong mathematical induction to prove that $P(n)$ is true for each
|
||||
integer $n \geq 0$. In the basis step, we prove that $P(0)$ and $P(1)$ are true.
|
||||
We do this because in the inductive step we need the equation to hold for
|
||||
$n = 0$ and $n = 1$ in order to prove that it holds for $n = 2$.
|
||||
|
||||
_Show that $P(0)$ and $P(1)$ are true:_
|
||||
|
||||
The truth of $P(0)$ and $P(1)$ is automatic because $C$ and $D$ are exactly
|
||||
those numbers that make the following equations true:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_0 = Cr^0 + Ds^0 \quad \text{ and } \quad a_1 = Cr^1 + Ds^1 $$
|
||||
|
||||
_Show that for every integer $k \geq 1$, if $P(i)$ is true for each integer $i$
|
||||
from $0$ through $k$, then $P(k + 1)$ is also true:_
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose that $k$ is any integer with $k \geq 1$ and for each integer $i$ from
|
||||
$0$ through $k$,
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_i = Cr^i + Ds^i $$
|
||||
|
||||
We must show that
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_{k + 1} = Cr^{k + 1} + Ds^{k + 1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
Now by the inductive hypothesis,
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_k = Cr^k + Ds^k \quad \text{ and } \quad a_{k - 1} = Cr^{k - 1} + Ds^{k - 1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
so
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_{k + 1} = Aa_k + Ba_{k - 1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ = A(Cr^k + Ds^k) + B(Cr^{k - 1} + Ds^{k - 1}) $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ = C(Ar^k + Br^{k - 1}) + D(As^k + Bs^{k - 1}) $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ = Cr^{k + 1} + Ds^{k + 1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
This is what was to be shown.
|
||||
|
||||
_[The reason the last equality follows from Lemma 5.8.1 is that since $r$ and
|
||||
$s$ satisfy the characteristic equation (5.8.2), the sequences
|
||||
$r^0, r^1, r^2, \dots$ and $s^0, s^1, s^2, \dots$ satisfy the recurrence
|
||||
relation (5.8.1).]_
