Abstract

In this paper, the authors present a closed formula for the Horadam polynomials in terms of a tridiagonal determinant and, as applications of the newly-established closed formula for the Horadam polynomials, derive closed formulas for the generalized Fibonacci polynomials, the Lucas polynomials, the Pell–Lucas polynomials, and the Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind in terms of tridiagonal determinants.
Keywords: closed formula; Horadam polynomial, tridiagonal determinant; generalized Fibonacci polynomial; Lucas polynomial; Pell–Lucas polynomial; Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind; Chebyshev polynomial of the second kind closed formula; Horadam polynomial, tridiagonal determinant; generalized Fibonacci polynomial; Lucas polynomial; Pell–Lucas polynomial; Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind; Chebyshev polynomial of the second kind
