In mathematics, the Wythoff array is an infinite matrix of positive integers derived from the Fibonacci sequence and named after Dutch mathematician Willem Abraham Wythoff. Every positive integer occurs exactly once in the array, and every integer sequence defined by the Fibonacci recurrence can be derived by shifting a row of the array.
A Fibonacci sequence of order n is an integer sequence in which each sequence element is the sum of the previous elements (with the exception of the first elements in the sequence). The usual Fibonacci numbers are a Fibonacci sequence of order 2.
For example, consider the recursive formulation for generating the Fibonacci sequence: F i = F i−1 + F i−2, with base case F 1 = F 2 = 1. Then F 43 = F 42 + F 41, and F 42 = F 41 + F 40. Now F 41 is being solved in the recursive sub-trees of both F 43 as well as F 42. Even though the total number of sub-problems is actually small (only 43 ...
In mathematics, the greedy algorithm for Egyptian fractions is a greedy algorithm, first described by Fibonacci, for transforming rational numbers into Egyptian fractions. An Egyptian fraction is a representation of an irreducible fraction as a sum of distinct unit fractions, such as 5 / 6 = 1 / 2 + 1 / 3 .
A Lagged Fibonacci generator (LFG or sometimes LFib) is an example of a pseudorandom number generator. This class of random number generator is aimed at being an improvement on the 'standard' linear congruential generator. These are based on a generalisation of the Fibonacci sequence. The Fibonacci sequence may be described by the recurrence ...
where F n is the n th Fibonacci number. Such a sum is called the Zeckendorf representation of N. The Fibonacci coding of N can be derived from its Zeckendorf representation. For example, the Zeckendorf representation of 64 is 64 = 55 + 8 + 1. There are other ways of representing 64 as the sum of Fibonacci numbers 64 = 55 + 5 + 3 + 1 64 = 34 ...
