Fibonacci
Leonardo Pisano Bigollo also known as Leonardo of Pisa, Leonardo Pisano, Leonardo Bonacci, Leonardo Fibonacci, or, most commonly, simply Fibonacci, was an Italian mathematician, considered by some "the most talented western mathematician of the Middle Ages."Fibonacci is best known to the modern...

Concepts in mathematics and computing
- Brahmagupta–Fibonacci identity
- Carmichael's theoremCarmichael's theoremCarmichael's theorem, named after the American mathematician R.D. Carmichael, states that for n greater than 12, the nth Fibonacci number F has at least one prime factor that is not a factor of any earlier Fibonacci number. The only exceptions for n up to 12 are:Carmichael's theorem, named after...
- Fibonacci codingFibonacci codingIn mathematics, Fibonacci coding is a universal code which encodes positive integers into binary code words. Each code word ends with "11" and contains no other instances of "11" before the end.-Definition:...
- Fibonacci cubeFibonacci cubeThe Fibonacci cubes or Fibonacci networks are a family of undirected graphs with rich recursive properties derived from its origin in Number Theory. Mathematically they are similar to the hypercube graphs, but with a Fibonacci number of vertices, studied in graph-theoretic mathematics...
- Fibonacci heapFibonacci heapIn computer science, a Fibonacci heap is a heap data structure consisting of a collection of trees. It has a better amortized running time than a binomial heap. Fibonacci heaps were developed by Michael L. Fredman and Robert E. Tarjan in 1984 and first published in a scientific journal in 1987...

- Fibonacci primeFibonacci primeA Fibonacci prime is a Fibonacci number that is prime, a type of integer sequence prime.The first Fibonacci primes are :-Known Fibonacci primes:It is not known if there are infinitely many Fibonacci primes...
- Fibonacci pseudoprime
- Fibonacci retracementFibonacci retracementIn finance, Fibonacci retracements is a method of technical analysis for determining support and resistance levels. They are named after their use of the Fibonacci sequence...
- Fibonacci search techniqueFibonacci search techniqueIn computer science, the Fibonacci search technique is a method of searching a sorted array using a divide and conquer algorithm that narrows down possible locations with the aid of Fibonacci numbers.Compared to binary search, Fibonacci search examines...

- Fibonacci–Sylvester expansion
- Lagged Fibonacci generatorLagged Fibonacci generatorA Lagged Fibonacci generator 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...
- Negafibonacci
- NegaFibonacci codingNegaFibonacci codingIn mathematics, negaFibonacci coding is a universal code which encodes integers into binary code words. It is similar to Fibonacci coding, except that it allows both positive and negative integers to be represented. All codes end with "11" and have no "11" before the end...
- Pisano periodPisano periodIn number theory, the nth Pisano period, written π, is the period with which the sequence of Fibonacci numbers, modulo n repeats. For example, the Fibonacci numbers modulo 3 are , 1, 1, 2, 0, 2, 2, 1, 0, 1, 1, etc., with the first eight numbers repeating, so π = 8.Pisano periods are named after...
- Reciprocal Fibonacci constant
- Young–Fibonacci latticeYoung–Fibonacci latticeIn mathematics, the Young–Fibonacci graph and Young–Fibonacci lattice, named after Alfred Young and Leonardo Fibonacci, are two closely related structures involving sequences of the digits 1 and 2...

- The Fibonacci AssociationThe Fibonacci AssociationThe Fibonacci Association is a mathematical organization that specializes in the Fibonacci number sequence and a wide variety of related subjects, generalizations, and applications, including recurrence relations, combinatorial identities, binomial coefficients, prime numbers, pseudoprimes,...
- Fibonacci QuarterlyFibonacci QuarterlyAs the primary publication of The Fibonacci Association, The Fibonacci Quarterly provides a focus for worldwide interest in the Fibonacci number sequence and related mathematics. Published since 1963, its founding editors were Verner Emil Hoggatt, Jr. and Alfred Brousseau...

An art rock
Art rock
Art rock is a subgenre of rock music that originated in the United Kingdom in the 1960s, with influences from art, avant-garde, and classical music. The first usage of the term, according to Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, was in 1968. Influenced by the work of The Beatles, most notably their Sgt...
