The Fibonacci Numbers: Exposed

Mathematics Magazine, 2003
Among numerical sequences, the Fibonacci numbers Fn have achieved a kind of celebrity status. Indeed, Koshy gushingly refers to them as one of the "two shining stars in the vast array of integer sequences" [16, p. xi]. The second of Koshy's "shining stars" is the Lucas numbers, a close relative of the Fibonacci numbers, about which we will say more ...

Factorization of Fibonacci Numbers

The Fibonacci Quarterly, 1970
The Fibonacci numbers \(F_n\) may be defined by \(F_0 = 0\), \(F_1= 1\), \(F_{n+1}=F_n +F_{n-1}\) for \(n \geq 1\). If \(F_z\) \(z>0\), is the smallest Fibonacci number divisible by the prime \(p\), then \(z =a(p)\) is defined as the entry point (or rank) of \(p\); moreover \(p\) divides \(F_n\) if and only if \(n\) is divisible by \(z(p)\).

Applications of Fibonacci numbers

The Mathematical Gazette, 1979
One card up the sleeve of many a teacher of mathematics involves the Fibonacci sequence 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34,…, in which each number is the sum of the preceding two. These numbers and the closely related golden ratio (√5 − 1):2 have intriguing geometric and algebraic properties and appear mysteriously in nature ([1], 160-172).

Fibonacci's Forgotten Number [PDF]

open access: possibleThe College Mathematics Journal, 2008
Ezra (Bud) Brown (ezbrown@math.vt.edu) grew up in New Orleans and has degrees from Rice and LSU. He arrived at Virginia Tech shortly after Hurricane Camille, and has been there ever since, with time out for sabbatical visits to Washington, DC (where he has spent his summers since 1993) and Munich.
