초록

Let $F_n$ and $L_n$ be the nth Fibonacci number and Lucas number, respectively. The order of appearance of m in the Fibonacci sequence, denoted by z(m), is the smallest positive integer k such that m divides $F_k$. Marques obtained the formula of $z(L^k_n)$ in some cases. In this article, we obtain the formula of $z(L^k_n)$ for all $n,k{\geq}1$.
