An $n$-length binary word is $q$-decreasing, $q\geq 1$, if every of its length maximal factor of the form $0^a1^b$ satisfies $a=0$ or $q\cdot a > b$.We show constructively that these words are in bijection with binary words having no…
A binary word is called $q$-decreasing, for $q>0$, if inside this word each of length-maximal (in the local sense) occurrences of a factor of the form $0^a1^b$, $a>0$, satisfies $q \cdot a > b$. We bijectively link $q$-decreasing words with…
It is known that binary words containing no $k$ consecutive 1s are enumerated by $k$-step Fibonacci numbers. In this note we discuss the expected value of a random bit in a random word of length $n$ having this property.
We give a survey of some known and some new results about factors of different sorts of $q-$Fibonacci numbers.
We present numerous interesting, mostly new, results involving the $n$-step Fibonacci numbers and $n$-step Lucas numbers and a generalization. Properties considered include recurrence relations, summation identities, including binomial and…
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…
We study the $k$-Bonacci word over the infinite alphabet $\mathbb{N}$. Since the alphabet is infinite, the usual factor complexity is infinite and does not provide any information. We therefore investigate factor occurrence statistics in…
In this paper, we consider the new family of recurrence sequences of $(q,k)$-generalized Fibonacci numbers. These sequences naturally extend the well-known sequences of $k$-generalized Fibonacci numbers and generalized $k$-order Pell…
We show that essentially the Fibonacci sequence is the unique binary recurrence which contains infinitely many three-term arithmetic progressions. A criterion for general linear recurrences having infinitely many three-term arithmetic…
Fibonacci numbers and the golden ratio can be found in nearly all domains of Science, appearing when self-organization processes are at play and/or expressing minimum energy configurations. Several non-exhaustive examples are given in…
The sequence of partial sums of Fibonacci numbers, beginning with $2$, $4$, $7$, $12$, $20$, $33,\dots$, has several combinatorial interpretations (OEIS A000071). For instance, the $n$-th term in this sequence is the number of length-$n$…
The paper explores combinatorial properties of Fibonacci words and their generalizations within the framework of combinatorics on words. These infinite sequences, measures the diversity of subwords in Fibonacci words, showing non-decreasing…
The Fibonacci sequence has been generalized in many ways. One of them is defined by the relation $t_n=at_{n-1}+t_{n-2}$ if $n$ is even, $t_n=bt_{n-1}+t_{n-2}$ if $n$ is odd, with initial values $t_0=0$ and $t_1=1$, where $a$ and $b$ are…
By using definition of Golden derivative, corresponding Golden exponential function and Fibonomial coefficients, we introduce generating functions for Bernoulli-Fibonacci polynomials and related numbers. Properties of these polynomials and…
In this paper, we answer the question: "what is the qth Fibonacci number, where q is a positive rational?". The answer is the codenominator function, which is an integral-valued map. It is defined via a pair of functional equations. Many…
For each positive integer n greater than or equal to 2, a new approach to expressing real numbers as sequences of nonnegative integers is given. The n=2 case is equivalent to the standard continued fraction algorithm. For n=3, it reduces to…
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.…
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…
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 $0,\ldots,0,1$, and each term afterwards is the sum of the preceding $k$ terms.…
In this expository paper written to commemorate Fibonacci Day 2016, we discuss famous relations involving the Fibonacci sequence, the golden ratio, continued fractions and nested radicals, and show how these fit into a more general…
