<i>p</i>-Adic quotient sets: Linear recurrence sequences with reducible characteristic polynomials
Abstract Let $(x_n)_{n\geq 0}$ be a linear recurrence sequence of order $k\geq 2$ satisfying $$ \begin{align*}x_n=a_1x_{n-1}+a_2x_{n-2}+\dots+a_kx_{n-k}\end{align*} $$ for all integers $n\geq k$ , where $a_1,\dots ,a_k,x_0,\dots , x_{k-1}\in \mathbb {Z},$ with $a_k\neq 0$ . In 2017, Sanna posed an open question to classify primes p for which the quotient set …
