ON THE SUM OF PELL AND JACOBSTHAL NUMBERS BY MATRIX METHOD

Abstract

In this paper, we define two n-square upper Hessenberg matrices one of which corresponds to the adjacency matrix of a directed pseudo graph. We investigate relations between permanents and determinants of these upper Hessenberg matrices, and sum formulas of the well-known Pell and Jacobsthal sequences. Finally, we present two Maple 13 procedures in order to calculate permanents of these upper Hessenberg matrices.
