Abstract:

The sedenions form a 16-dimensional non-associative and non-commutative algebra over the set of real numbers. In this paper, we introduce the Fibonacci and Lucas sedenions. We present generating functions and Binet formulas for the Fibonacci and Lucas sedenions, and derive adaptations for some well-known identities of Fibonacci and Lucas numbers.
