Abstract
For positive integers and , we let be the Lucas sequence of the first kind defined by
and let be the period length of modulo the integer , where gcd. We define an -Wall-Sun-Sun prime to be a prime such that . When , such a prime is referred to simply as a Wall-Sun-Sun prime.
We say that a monic polynomial of degree is monogenic if is irreducible over and
is a basis for the ring of integers of , where .
Let , and let be a positive integer. Then, with certain restrictions on , and , we prove that the monogenicity of
is independent of the positive integer and is determined solely by whether has a prime divisor that is an -Wall-Sun-Sun prime. This result improves and extends previous work of the author in the special case .
