  2. Golden ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio

    The ratio of Fibonacci numbers ⁠ ⁠ and ⁠ ⁠, each over ⁠ ⁠ digits, yields over ⁠ ⁠ significant digits of the golden ratio. The decimal expansion of the golden ratio ⁠ φ {\displaystyle \varphi } ⁠ [ 1 ] has been calculated to an accuracy of ten trillion ( ⁠ 1 × 10 13 = 10,000,000,000,000 {\displaystyle \textstyle 1\times ...

  3. Golden ratio base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio_base

    Golden ratio base is a non-integer positional numeral system that uses the golden ratio (the irrational number + ≈ 1.61803399 symbolized by the Greek letter φ) as its base. It is sometimes referred to as base-φ , golden mean base , phi-base , or, colloquially, phinary .

  4. Fibonacci sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_sequence

    Since the conversion factor 1.609344 for miles to kilometers is close to the golden ratio, the decomposition of distance in miles into a sum of Fibonacci numbers becomes nearly the kilometer sum when the Fibonacci numbers are replaced by their successors. This method amounts to a radix 2 number register in golden ratio base φ being shifted. To ...

    The n-Fibonacci constant is the ratio toward which adjacent -Fibonacci numbers tend; it is also called the n th metallic mean, and it is the only positive root of =. For example, the case of n = 1 {\displaystyle n=1} is 1 + 5 2 {\displaystyle {\frac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}} , or the golden ratio , and the case of n = 2 {\displaystyle n=2} is 1 + 2 ...

    The golden ratio (denoted or ) is ... [30] Any number for which the digits with respect to some fixed base form a Sturmian word. [31] The Prouhet–Thue–Morse ...

  8. Reciprocal Fibonacci constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocal_Fibonacci_constant

    The reciprocal Fibonacci constant ψ is the sum of the reciprocals of the Fibonacci numbers: = = = + + + + + + + +. Because the ratio of successive terms tends to the reciprocal of the golden ratio, which is less than 1, the ratio test shows that the sum converges.

  9. Lucas number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucas_number

    This produces a sequence where the ratios of successive terms approach the golden ratio, and in fact the terms themselves are roundings of integer powers of the golden ratio. [2] The sequence also has a variety of relationships with the Fibonacci numbers, like the fact that adding any two Fibonacci numbers two terms apart in the Fibonacci ...
