The Binet-Fibonacci formula for Fibonacci numbers is treated as a q-number (and q-operator) with Golden ratio bases $q=\phi$ and $Q=-1/\phi$. Quantum harmonic oscillator for this Golden calculus is derived so that its spectrum is given just…

The Fibonacci sequence, $F_n = F_{n - 1} + F_{n - 2}$, and its counterpart for $n < 0$, the negaFibonacci sequence, $F_{-n} = (-1)^{n + 1} \cdot F_n$, are among the most studied sequences in mathematics. In this paper we will present a new…
