A repfigit, or Keith number, is an integer such that, when its digits start a Fibonacci sequence with that number of digits, the original number is eventually reached. An example is 47, because the Fibonacci sequence starting with 4 and 7 (4, 7, 11, 18, 29, 47) reaches 47.
Fibonacci numbers are also strongly related to the golden ratio: Binet's formula expresses the n-th Fibonacci number in terms of n and the golden ratio, and implies that the ratio of two consecutive Fibonacci numbers tends to the golden ratio as n increases.
If the number subtracted was the i th Fibonacci number F(i), put a 1 in place i − 2 in the code word (counting the left most digit as place 0). Repeat the previous steps, substituting the remainder for N, until a remainder of 0 is reached. Place an additional 1 after the rightmost digit in the code word.
For generalized Fibonacci sequences (satisfying the same recurrence relation, but with other initial values, e.g. the Lucas numbers) the number of occurrences of 0 per cycle is 0, 1, 2, or 4. The ratio of the Pisano period of n and the number of zeros modulo n in the cycle gives the rank of apparition or Fibonacci entry point of n .
where F n is the n th Fibonacci number. Such a sum is called the Zeckendorf representation of N. The Fibonacci coding of N can be derived from its Zeckendorf representation. For example, the Zeckendorf representation of 64 is 64 = 55 + 8 + 1. There are other ways of representing 64 as the sum of Fibonacci numbers 64 = 55 + 5 + 3 + 1 64 = 34 ...
Dov Jarden proved that the Fibonomials appear as coefficients of an equation involving powers of consecutive Fibonacci numbers, namely Jarden proved that given any generalized Fibonacci sequence , that is, a sequence that satisfies = + for every , then
For Fibonacci numbers starting with F 1 = 0 and F 2 = 1 and with each succeeding Fibonacci number being the sum of the preceding two, one can generate a sequence of Pythagorean triples starting from (a 3, b 3, c 3) = (4, 3, 5) via
P(n) is the number of ways of writing n + 2 as an ordered sum in which each term is either 2 or 3 (i.e. the number of compositions of n + 2 in which each term is either 2 or 3). For example, P(6) = 4, and there are 4 ways to write 8 as an ordered sum of 2s and 3s:
