We study the generalized random Fibonacci sequences defined by their first nonnegative terms and for $n\ge 1$, $F_{n+2} = \lambda F_{n+1} \pm F_{n}$ (linear case) and $\widetilde F_{n+2} = |\lambda \widetilde F_{n+1} \pm \widetilde F_{n}|$…

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…

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…

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…

We consider a random generalisation of the classical Fibonacci substitution. The substitution we consider is defined as the rule mapping $\mathtt{a}\mapsto \mathtt{baa}$ and $\mathtt{b} \mapsto \mathtt{ab}$ with probability $p$ and…

The random Fibonacci chain is a generalisation of the classical Fibonacci substitution and is defined as the rule mapping $0\mapsto 1$ and $1 \mapsto 01$ with probability $p$ and $1 \mapsto 10$ with probability $1-p$ for $0<p<1$ and where…

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 $ k \geq 2 $ be an integer. The $ k- $generalized Fibonacci sequence is a sequence defined by the recurrence relation $ F_{n}^{(k)}=F_{n-1}^{(k)} + \cdots + F_{n-k}^{(k)}$ for all $ n \geq 2$ with the initial values $ F_{i}^{(k)}=0 $…

In this paper we study how to accelerate the convergence of the ratios (x_n) of generalized Fibonacci sequences. In particular, we provide recurrent formulas in order to generate subsequences (x_{g_n}) for every linear recurrent sequence…

Since the $\mathrm{Fibonacci}$ sequence has good properties, it's important in theory and applications, such as in combinatorics, cryptography, and so on. In this paper, for the generalized Fibonacci sequence…

The article uses an arithmetic-geometric Fibonacci series to find the expected value of trials needed to observe k consecutive successes for the first time in a Bernoulli experiment using a recurrence relation. It is important to note that…

We derive the double recurrence $e_n = \frac{1}{2}(a_{n-1}+5b_{n-1}); f_{n} = \frac{1}{2}(a_{n-1}+b_{n-1})$ with $e_0=2;f_0=0$ for the Fibonacci numbers, leading to an extremely simple and fast implementation. Though the recurrence is…

The Fibonacci sequence is a series of positive integers in which, starting from $0$ and $1$, every number is the sum of two previous numbers, and the limiting ratio of any two consecutive numbers of this sequence is called the golden ratio.…

Let $(F_n)_{n\geq 0}$ be the Fibonacci sequence given by the recurrence $F_{n+2}=F_{n+1}+F_n$, for $n\geq 0$, where $F_0=0$ and $F_1=1$. There are several generalizations of this sequence and also several interesting identities. In this…

Let (F_n^{(k)})_{n\geq -(k-2)} be the k-generalized Fibonacci sequence, defined as the linear recurrence sequence whose first k terms are \(0, 0, \ldots, 0, 1\), and whose subsequent terms are determined by the sum of the preceding k terms.…

In seeking to understand the size of inbred pedigrees, J. Lachance (J. Theor. Biol. 261, 238-247, 2009) studied a population model in which, for a fixed value of $n$, each mating occurs between $n$th cousins. We explain a connection between…
