Abstract.

In this article, we present two infinite dimensional matrices whose entries are recursively defined, and show that the sequence of their principal minors form the Lucas sequence, that is (2,1,3,4,7,...). It is worth mentioning that to construct these matrices we use nonhomogeneous recurrence relations.
