On the prime density of Lucas sequences
Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux, Tome 8 (1996) no. 2, pp. 449-459.

On donne la densité des nombres premiers qui divisent au moins un terme de la suite de Lucas L n (P) n=0 , définie par L 0 (P)=2,L 1 (P)=P et L n (P)=PL n-1 (P)+L n-2 (P) pour n2, avec P entier arbitraire.

The density of primes dividing at least one term of the Lucas sequence L n (P) n=0 , defined by L 0 (P)=2,L 1 (P)=P and L n (P)=PL n-1 (P)+L n-2 (P) for n2, with P an arbitrary integer, is determined.
