Abstract

In this paper, by using the lower bound of linear forms in logarithms of Matveev and the theory of continued fractions by means of a variation of a result of Dujella and Peth\H o, we find all generalized Fibonacci numbers which are Pell numbers. This paper continues a previous work that searched for Pell numbers in the Fibonacci sequence.

Keywords: $k$-Fibonacci numbers, Pell numbers, linear forms in logarithms, reduction method
