  2. Generalizations of Fibonacci numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalizations_of...

    The term Fibonacci sequence is also applied more generally to any function from the integers to a field for which (+) = + (+).These functions are precisely those of the form () = () + (), so the Fibonacci sequences form a vector space with the functions () and () as a basis.

  3. Fibonacci sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_sequence

    The name "Fibonacci sequence" was first used by the 19th-century number theorist Édouard Lucas. [22] Solution to Fibonacci rabbit problem: In a growing idealized population, the number of rabbit pairs form the Fibonacci sequence.

  4. Dynamic programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming

    If a solution has been recorded, we can use it directly, otherwise we solve the sub-problem and add its solution to the table. Bottom-up approach : Once we formulate the solution to a problem recursively as in terms of its sub-problems, we can try reformulating the problem in a bottom-up fashion: try solving the sub-problems first and use their ...

  5. Recurrence relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recurrence_relation

    In mathematics, a recurrence relation is an equation according to which the th term of a sequence of numbers is equal to some combination of the previous terms. Often, only previous terms of the sequence appear in the equation, for a parameter that is independent of ; this number is called the order of the relation.

  6. Fibonacci polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_polynomials

    In mathematics, the Fibonacci polynomials are a polynomial sequence which can be considered as a generalization of the Fibonacci numbers. The polynomials generated in a similar way from the Lucas numbers are called Lucas polynomials .

  7. Pisano period - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pisano_period

    For generalized Fibonacci sequences (satisfying the same recurrence relation, but with other initial values, e.g. the Lucas numbers) the number of occurrences of 0 per cycle is 0, 1, 2, or 4. The ratio of the Pisano period of n and the number of zeros modulo n in the cycle gives the rank of apparition or Fibonacci entry point of n .

  8. Missing square puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_square_puzzle

    The integer dimensions of the parts of the puzzle (2, 3, 5, 8, 13) are successive Fibonacci numbers, which leads to the exact unit area in the thin parallelogram. Many other geometric dissection puzzles are based on a few simple properties of the Fibonacci sequence. [4]

  9. Constant-recursive sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-recursive_sequence

    The Fibonacci sequence is constant-recursive: each element of the sequence is the sum of the previous two. Hasse diagram of some subclasses of constant-recursive sequences, ordered by inclusion In mathematics , an infinite sequence of numbers s 0 , s 1 , s 2 , s 3 , … {\displaystyle s_{0},s_{1},s_{2},s_{3},\ldots } is called constant ...
