T(k, n) is even if k is odd.
T(k, n) = T(k, n+1) for n = k/2 - 2 if k >= 6 is even.
T(k, n) = T(k, n+2) for n = (k-1)/2 - 2 if k >= 7 is odd.
For fixed n, T(k, n) is linear in k.
The T(k, j) contribute coefficients to a closed formula for the sum of the first n+1 squares of the k-generalized Fibonacci numbers, F(k, j) = A092921(k, j). See A343138 for sums of squares of F(k, j). See the Formula section for closed formula. Although other sequences occur in coefficients in the closed formula for sums of squares, they are linear in nature. All coefficient sequences are mentioned in the arXiv link. The closed formula generalizes results of Schumacher (see References) for the cases k=3 and k=4 with a uniform proof method (see arXiv link).

FORMULA
|
Let F(k, n) = A092921(k, n), the k-generalized Fibonacci numbers. Let A(k, n) = A343138(k, n) = Sum_{m=0..n} F(k, m)^2, the sum of the first m+1 k-generalized Fibonacci numbers. Then, for k >= 2, a closed formula for A(k, n) is:
A(k, n) = (1/(2*k-2)) * (Sum_{j=0..k-2, m=j+1..k-1} 2*(j+1)*(m-k+1) * F(k, n+j) * F(k, n+m)) - (k-2)*F(k, n)^2 - Sum_{j=1..k}(T(k, j) * F(k, n+j)^2) + (k-2)).
T(2*n-2, n) = A028557(n-2), n >= 2.
T(4*n-6, n) = 2*A140672(n-2), n >= 2. (End)

The following are the closed formulas for k = 3, 4 for A(k, n) = Sum_{m=0..n} F(k, m)^2, with F(k, n) = A092921(k, n), the k-generalized Fibonacci numbers, and A(k, n) = A343138(k, n), the sum of squares of F(k, n). These formulas are derived from the closed formula in the formula section. Of course further simplifications are possible. For k = 2, T(2, 1) = 0 so illustrations start with k = 3.
