We study two kinds of random Fibonacci sequences defined by $F_1=F_2=1$ and for $n\ge 1$, $F_{n+2} = F_{n+1} \pm F_{n}$ (linear case) or $F_{n+2} = |F_{n+1} \pm F_{n}|$ (non-linear case), where each sign is independent and either + with…

A random Fibonacci sequence is defined by the relation g_n = | g_{n-1} +/- g_{n-2} |, where the +/- sign is chosen by tossing a balanced coin for each n. We generalize these sequences to the case when the coin is unbalanced (denoting by p…

We study growth rates of generalised Fibonacci sequences of a particular structure. These sequences are constructed from choosing two real numbers for the first two terms and always having the next term be either the sum or the difference…

For every nonnegative integer $n$, let $r_F(n)$ be the number of ways to write $n$ as a sum of Fibonacci numbers, where the order of the summands does not matter. Moreover, for all positive integers $p$ and $N$, let \begin{equation*}…

We consider random Fibonacci sequences given by $x_{n+1}=\pm \beta x_{n}+x_{n-1}$. Viswanath (\cite{viswanath}), following Furstenberg (\cite{furst}) showed that when $\beta = 1$, $\lim_{n\to \infty}|x_{n}|^{1/n}=1.13...$, but his proof…

Solutions to the random Fibonacci recurrence x_{n+1}=x_{n} + or - Bx_{n-1} decrease (increase) exponentially, x_{n} = exp(lambda n), for sufficiently small (large) B. In the limits B --> 0 and B --> infinity, we expand the Lyapunov exponent…

Let $\{f_n\}$ be the Fibonacci sequence. For any positive integer $n$, let $r(n)$ be the number of solutions of $n=p+f_{k_1^{2}} +f_{k_{2}^{2}}$, where $p$ is a prime and $k_1, k_2$ are nonnegative integers with $k_1\le k_2$. In this paper,…

For $k\geq 2$, the $k$-generalized Fibonacci sequence $(F_n^{(k)})_{n}$ is defined by the initial values $0,0,...,0,1$ ($k$ terms) and such that each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In 2005, Noe and Post conjectured…

The generalized Fibonacci sequences are sequences $\{f_n\}$ which satisfy the recurrence $f_n(s, t) = sf_{n - 1}(s, t) + tf_{n - 2}(s, t)$ ($s, t \in \mathbb{Z}$) with initial conditions $f_0(s, t) = 0$ and $f_1(s, t) = 1$. In a recent…
