Let ${\cal P}$ be the set of palindromes occurring in the Fibonacci sequence. In this note, we establish three structures of $\mathcal{P}$ and and discuss their properties: cylinder structure, chain structure and recursive structure. Using…
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…
We use generating functions to enumerate Arndt compositions, that is, integer compositions where there is a descent between every second pair of parts, starting with the first and second part, and so on. In 2013, J\"org Arndt noted that…
A beautiful theorem of Zeckendorf states that every integer can be written uniquely as a sum of non-consecutive Fibonacci numbers $\{F_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$. Lekkerkerker proved that the average number of summands for integers in $[F_n,…
In this paper, we show that the concatenation of the Fibonacci sequence is \textit{normal} in base $10$, meaning every string of a given length, $k$, occurs as frequently as every other string of length $k$ (there are as many $1$'s as $2$'s…
Zeckendorf proved that every positive integer can be expressed as the sum of non-consecutive Fibonacci numbers. This theorem inspired a beautiful game, the Zeckendorf Game. Two players begin with $n \ 1$'s and take turns applying rules…
We present three simple algorithms to uniformly generate `Fibonacci words' (i.e., some words that are enumerated by Fibonacci numbers), Schr{\"o}der trees of size $n$ and Motzkin left factors of size $n$ and final height $h$. These…
Nature rarely reveals her secrets bluntly, yet in the Fibonacci sequence she grants us a glimpse of her quiet architecture of growth, harmony, and recursive stability \citep{Koshy2001Fibonacci, Livio2002GoldenRatio}. From spiral galaxies to…
As is well-known, the ratio of adjacent Fibonacci numbers tends to phi = (1 + sqrt(5))/2, and the ratio of adjacent Tribonacci numbers (where each term is the sum of the three preceding numbers) tends to the real root eta of X^3 - X^2 - X -…
We present a quite curious generalization of multi-step Fibonacci numbers. For any positive rational $q$, we enumerate binary words of length $n$ whose maximal factors of the form $0^a1^b$ satisfy $a = 0$ or $aq > b$. When $q$ is an integer…
The classical Fibonacci sequence is known to exhibit many fascinating properties. In this paper, we explore the Fibonacci sequence and integer sequences generated by second order linear recurrence relations with positive integer…
A positive integer $n$ is called a balancing number if there exists a positive integer $r$ such that $1 + 2 + \cdots + (n-1) = (n+1) + (n+2) + \cdots + (n+r)$. The corresponding value $r$ is known as the balancer of $n$. If $n$ is a…
For an arbitrary homogeneous linear recurrence sequence of order d with constant coefficients, we derive recurrence relations for all subsequences with indices in arithmetic progression. The coefficients of these recurrences are given…
A generalization of the well-known Fibonacci sequence is the $k$-Fibonacci sequence with some fixed integer $k\ge 2$. The first $k$ terms of this sequence are $0,0, \ldots, 1$, and each term afterwards is the sum of the preceding $k$ terms.…
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…
We study compositions whose parts are colored by subsequences of the Fibonacci numbers. We give explicit bijections between Fibonacci colored compositions and several combinatorial objects, including certain restricted ternary and…
Let $F_{n}$ and $L_n$ be the $n$th Fibonacci and Lucas number, respectively. For each positive integer $m$, the order of appearance of $m$ in the Fibonacci sequence, denoted by $z(m)$, is the smallest positive integer $k$ such that $m$…
Babson and Steingr\'{\i}msson introduced generalized permutation patterns that allow the requirement that two adjacent letters in a pattern must be adjacent in the permutation. We consider n-permutations that avoid the generalized pattern…
Here we propose an algorithm, named generalized orthogonal components regression (GOCRE), to explore the relationship between a categorical outcome and a set of massive variables. A set of orthogonal components are sequentially constructed…
This paper presents new identities expressing the terms of Fibonacci, Lucas, and generalized Fibonacci sequences with multiple indices through powers of Lucas numbers and binomial coefficients. The obtained formulas rely on the application…
