Pell and Pell-Lucas numbers like the well-known Fibonacci and Catalan numbers continue to
intrigue the mathematical world with their beauty and applicability. They offer opportunities
for experimentation exploration conjecture and problem-solving techniques connecting the
fields of analysis geometry trigonometry and various areas of discrete mathematics number
theory graph theory linear algebra and combinatorics. Pell and Pell-Lucas numbers belong to
an extended Fibonacci family as a powerful tool for extracting numerous interesting properties
of a vast array of number sequences. A key feature of this work is the historical flavor that
is interwoven into the extensive and in-depth coverage of the subject. An interesting array of
applications to combinatorics graph theory geometry and intriguing mathematical puzzles is
another highlight engaging the reader. The exposition is user-friendly yet rigorous so that a
broad audience consisting of students math teachers and instructors computer scientists and
other professionals along with the mathematically curious will all benefit from this book.
Finally Pell and Pell-Lucas Numbers provides enjoyment and excitement while sharpening the
reader's mathematical skills involving pattern recognition proof-and-problem-solving
techniques.
