This work generalizes results on exact divisibility of powers of the Fibonacci number Fkn into another Fibonacci number Gk(n) defined iteratively by G1(n) = Fn and Gk(n) = FnGk-1(n) for k ≥ 2. In particular, we prove analogous results on nondegenerate Lucas sequences by providing explicit formulas for p-adic valuation of iterative terms in these sequences. The proof makes use of recent results by Sanna regarding the p-adic valuation of Lucas sequences.Mahidol UniversityMathematicsP-ADIC valuation of Lucas iteration sequencesArticleSCOPUS
