%N Sum of squares of cycle lengths for different cycles in Fibonacci-like sequences modulo n.

%C Here Fibonacci-like means a sequence following the Fibonacci recursion: b(n)=b(n-1)+b(n-2). These sequences modulo n cycle. The number of different cycles is A015134(n).

%C This sequence divided by n^2 is the average cycle length per different starting pairs modulo n, see A233248.

%C If n is in A064414, then a(n)/n^2 is the average distance between two neighboring multiples of n.

%C If n is in A064414, then a(n)/2n^2 is the average distance to the next zero over all starting pairs of remainders.

%H B. Avila and T. Khovanova, <a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/1403.4614">Free Fibonacci Sequences</a>, arXiv preprint arXiv:1403.4614, 2014 and <a href="https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/journals/JIS/VOL17/Avila/avila4.html">J. Int. Seq. 17 (2014) # 14.8.5</a>

%e For n=4 there are four possible cycles: A trivial cycle of length 1: 0; two cycles of length 6: 0,1,1,2,3,1; and a cycle of length 3: 0,2,2. Hence, a(4)=1+9+36+36=82.

%t cl[i_, j_, n_] := (step = 1; first = i; second = j;

%t next = Mod[first + second, n];

%t While[second != i || next != j, step++; first = second;

%t second = next; next = Mod[first + second, n]]; step)

%t Table[Total[

%t Flatten[Table[cl[i, j, n], {i, 0, n - 1}, {j, 0, n - 1}]]], {n, 50}]
