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*}…
Let $p$ be a prime number. A chain $\{p,2p+1,4p+3,\cdots,(p+1)2^{l(p)-1}-1\}$ is called the Cunningham chain generated by $p$ if all elements are prime number and $(p+1)2^{l(p)}-1$ is composite. Then $l(p)$ is called the length of the…
This paper explores profound generalizations of the Fibonacci sequence, delving into random Fibonacci sequences, $k$-Fibonacci words, and their combinatorial properties. We established that the $n$-th root of the absolute value of terms in…
The literature on Dedekind sums is vast. In this expository paper we show that there is a common thread to many generalizations of Dedekind sums, namely through the study of lattice point enumeration of rational polytopes. In particular,…
Zeckendorf proved that every positive integer can be written as a decomposition of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers. Baird-Smith, Epstein, Flint, and Miller converted the process of decomposing an integer $n$ into a 2-player game, using the…
Given that $a,b\in\mathbb N$, $c_0,c_1\in\mathbb Z$, $(c_0,c_1)\neq (0,0)$, and a generalized Fibonacci sequence $(s_n)_{n\geq 0}$ where $s_0 = c_0$, $s_1 = c_1$, and $s_{n+1}=as_{n}+bs_{n-1}$ for all positive integers $n$. In this paper,…
Let $(G_k)_{k\in\mathbb Z}$ be any sequence obeying the recurrence relation of the Fibonacci numbers. We derive formulas for $\sum_{j=1}^n{G_{j + t}^6}$ and $\sum_{j=1}^n{(-1)^{j - 1}G_{j + t}^5(G_{j + t - 1} + G_{j + t + 1})}$, thereby…
Katugampola's 2015 study of generalized fractional differential operators produced triangular arrays of integer coefficients indexed by a fractional order r and by dimensions n and k, but no combinatorial interpretation has been established…
For an integer $ k\geq 2 $, let $ \{F^{(k)}_{n} \}_{n\geq 0}$ be the $ k$--generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $ 0, \ldots, 0, 1 $ ($ k $ terms) and each term afterwards is the sum of the $ k $ preceding terms. In this paper,…
In the \textit{Fibonacci Quarterly} in 1964, C.~R.~Wall gave the following weighted sum of generalized Fibonacci numbers: $\sum_{i=1}^n i G_i = n G_{n+2} - G_{n+3} + G_3$, where $\left(G_n\right)_{n \geq 0}$ is defined by the recurrence…
A numerical semigroup is said to be ordinary if it has all its gaps in a row. Indeed, it contains zero and all integers from a given positive one. One can define a simple operation on a non-ordinary semigroup, which we call here the…
Fibonacci codes are self-synchronizing variable-length codes that are proven useful for their robustness and compression capability. Asymptotically, these codes provide better compression efficiency as the order of the underlying Fibonacci…
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…
Zeckendorf proved that every positive integer can be written uniquely as the sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers. We further explore a two-player Zeckendorf game introduced in Baird-Smith, Epstein, Flint, and Miller: Given a fixed integer…
For an integer $k\ge 2$, let $\{F^{(k)}_{n}\}_{n\ge 2-k}$ be the $ k$--generalized Fibonacci sequence which starts with $0, \ldots, 0,1$ (a total of $k$ terms) and for which each term afterwards is the sum of the $k$ preceding terms. In…
It is shown how some of the recent results of de Souza et al. [1] can be generalized to describe Hamiltonians whose eigenvalues are given as k-generalized Fibonacci numbers. Here k is an arbitrary integer and the cases considered by de…
Edouard Zeckendorf proved that every positive integer $n$ can be uniquely written \cite{Ze} as the sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers, known as the Zeckendorf decomposition. Based on Zeckendorf's decomposition, we have the Zeckendorf…
A well-known result from Hardy and Ramanujan gives an asymptotic expression for the number of possible ways to express an integer as the sum of smaller integers. In this vein, we consider the general partitioning problem of writing an…
In this paper we study the sum $$\sum_{j_1+j_2+...+j_d=n}\prod_{i=1}^d F_{k\cdot j_i},$$ where $d\geq2$ and $k\geq1$.
For a fixed positive integer $d$ and a small real $p>0$, sample a $p$-random subset $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}^d$, and let $S:=\langle A \rangle$ be the generalized numerical semigroup generated by $A$. We show that with high…
