Abstract:
Given a pair (Ut) and (Vt) of Lucas sequences, Kimball and Webb
showed that
(mod p2), if
p is a prime
whose rank
is maximal, that is to say,
is p or .
We extend their result replacing p by a
composite integer m of maximal rank, thereby providing a
generalization of a classical congruence of Leudesdorf.
