An Application of Zeckendorf’s Theorem

In: Applications of Fibonacci Numbers

  • Roger V. Jean

Abstract

The author is involved in research in biomathematics, more precisely in the application of mathematics to plant biology. From the very beginning he was confronted with Fibonacci numbers. Indeed these numbers arise in what is considered to be the bugbear of botany. Their overwhelming presence in the secondary spirals on plants has puzzled many research workers. Many theories and models have been elaborated but the problem is still unsolved. The author produced dozens of articles and the book [2] mentioned in the references on the subject. This book has been reviewed in many places especially in [1]. Another book by the same author on the same subject is in preparation.
