Abstract

We define the basic k-nacci sequences and the basic periods of these sequences in finite groups, then we obtain the basic periods of the basic k-nacci sequences and the periods of the k-nacci sequences in symmetric group 𝑆 4 , its subgroups, and binary polyhedral groups which related with these groups.
