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.…
It is a well known result that for $\beta\in(1,\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2})$ and $x\in(0,\frac{1}{\beta-1})$ there exists uncountably many $(\epsilon_{i})_{i=1}^{\infty}\in {0,1}^{\mathbb{N}}$ such that…
It is a fundamental property of non-letter Lyndon words that they can be expressed as a concatenation of two shorter Lyndon words. This leads to a naive lower bound log_{2}(n)} + 1 for the number of distinct Lyndon factors that a Lyndon…
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 $F_{n}$ be the $n$-th Fibonacci number. Put $\varphi=\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}$. We prove that the following inequalities hold for any real $\alpha$: 1) $\inf_{n \in \mathbb N} ||F_n\alpha||\le\frac{\varphi-1}{\varphi+2}$, 2) $\liminf_{n\to…
Let $\alpha=(1+\sqrt 5)/2$, the golden ratio, and $\beta=-1/\alpha=(1 - \sqrt 5)/2$. Let $F_n$ and $L_n$ be the Fibonacci and Lucas numbers, defined by $F_n=(\alpha^n -\beta^n)/\sqrt 5$ and $L_n=\alpha^n + \beta^n$, for all non-negative…
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…
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…
Recently the Fibonacci word $W$ on an infinite alphabet was introduced by [Zhang et al., Electronic J. Combinatorics 24-2 (2017) #P2.52] as a fixed point of the morphism $\phi: (2i) \mapsto (2i)(2i+ 1),\ (2i+ 1) \mapsto (2i+ 2)$ over all $i…
Let us denote by $F_n$ the $n$-th Fibonacci number. In this paper we show that for a fixed integer $y$ there exists at most one integer exponent $a>0$ such that the Diophantine equation $F_n+F_m=y^a$ has a solution $(n,m,a)$ in positive…
Using the classic two's complement notation of signed integers, the fundamental arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication are identical to those for unsigned binary numbers. We introduce a Fibonacci-equivalent of…
Let $w$ be an infinite word on an alphabet $A$. We denote by $(n_i)_{i \geq 1}$ the increasing sequence (assumed to be infinite) of all lengths of palindrome prefixes of $w$. In this text, we give an explicit construction of all words $w$…
We show among others that the formula: $$ \lfloor n + \log_{\Phi}\{\sqrt{5}(\log_{\Phi}(\sqrt{5}n) + n) -5 + \frac{3}{n}\} - 2 \rfloor (n \geq 2), $$ (where $\Phi$ denotes the golden ratio and $\lfloor \rfloor$ denotes the integer part)…
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 -…
Let $n\in\mathbb{Z}^+$. In [8] we ask the question whether any sequence of $n$ consecutive integers greater than $n^2$ and smaller than $(n+1)^2$ contains at least one prime number, and we show that this is actually the case for every…
Let $\{f_n\}$ be the Fibonacci sequence. For any positive integer $n$, let $r(n)$ be the number of solutions of $n=p+f_{k_1^{2}} +f_{k_{2}^{2}}$, where $p$ is a prime and $k_1, k_2$ are nonnegative integers with $k_1\le k_2$. In this paper,…
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 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 $\mathbb{F}$ is the fixed point beginning with $a$ of morphism $\sigma(a,b)=(ab,a)$. Since $\mathbb{F}$ is uniformly recurrent, each factor $\omega$ appears infinite many times in the sequence which is arranged as…
The Fibonacci numbers satisfy the famous recurrence $F_n = F_{n - 1} + F_{n - 2}$. The theory of C-finite sequences ensures that the Fibonacci numbers whose indices are divisible by $m$, namely $F_{mn}$, satisfy a similar recurrence for…
