With the exceptions of 1, 8 and 144 (F 1 = F 2, F 6 and F 12) every Fibonacci number has a prime factor that is not a factor of any smaller Fibonacci number (Carmichael's theorem). [57] As a result, 8 and 144 (F 6 and F 12) are the only Fibonacci numbers that are the product of other Fibonacci numbers. [58]
In number theory, the nth Pisano period, written as π (n), is the period with which the sequence of Fibonacci numbers taken modulo n repeats. Pisano periods are named after Leonardo Pisano, better known as Fibonacci. The existence of periodic functions in Fibonacci numbers was noted by Joseph Louis Lagrange in 1774. [1] [2]
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. A repfigit can be a tribonacci sequence if there are 3 digits in the ...
The smallest integer m > 1 such that p n # + m is a prime number, where the primorial p n # is the product of the first n prime numbers. A005235 Semiperfect numbers
Every sequence of positive integers satisfying the Fibonacci recurrence occurs, shifted by at most finitely many positions, in the Wythoff array. In particular, the Fibonacci sequence itself is the first row, and the sequence of Lucas numbers appears in shifted form in the second row (Morrison 1980).
In recreational mathematics, a Keith number or repfigit number (short for repetitive Fibonacci-like digit) is a natural number in a given number base with digits such that when a sequence is created such that the first terms are the digits of and each subsequent term is the sum of the previous terms, is part of the sequence. Keith numbers were ...
A page of the Liber Abaci from the National Central Library.The list on the right shows the numbers 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377 (the Fibonacci sequence).
144 (one hundred [and] forty-four) is the natural number following 143 and preceding 145.It is coincidentally both the square of twelve (a dozen dozens, or one gross.) and the twelfth Fibonacci number, and the only nontrivial number in the sequence that is square.
