Efficient Algorithms for Zeckendorf Arithmetic

Data Structures and Algorithms 2012-07-20 v1 Combinatorics

Abstract

We study the problem of addition and subtraction using the Zeckendorf representation of integers. We show that both operations can be performed in linear time; in fact they can be performed by combinational logic networks with linear size and logarithmic depth. The implications of these results for multiplication, division and square-root extraction are also discussed.
