Abstract
Let U = (U-n)(n >= 0) be a Lucas sequence and, for every prime number p, let rho(U)(p) be the rank of appearance of p in U, that is, the smallest positive integer k such that p divides U-k, whenever it exists. Furthermore, let d be an odd positive integer. Under some mild hypotheses, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of primes p <= x such that d divides p(U)(p), as x -> +infinity.
