    THE

    RANDOM
    FIBONACCI
    SEQUENCE
    What is a Fibonacci sequence ?

    In mathematics, the random


    Fibonacci sequence is a
    stochastic analogue of the
    Fibonacci sequence defined by

    𝑓n =𝑓n-1 ± 𝑓n-2 , where the signs +


    the recurrence relation

    or − are chosen at random with


     By a theorem of Harry Kesten and
    Hillel Furstenberg, random recurrent
    sequences of this kind grow at a
    certain exponential rate, but it is
    difficult to compute the rate explicitly.
     In 1999, Divakar Viswanath showed
    that the growth rate of the
    random Fibonacci sequence is equal
    to 1.1319882487943... (sequence
    A078416 in the OEIS), a
    mathematical constant that was later
     Fibonacci sequence generates
    mathematical patterns that can
    be found in all aspects of life.

     Ex: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34,


    55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987,
    1597, 2584, 4181 and so on…….

     These numbers are obtained by


    adding the two previous numbers
    Origin of the Fibonacci
    sequence
    It is believed that the contribution
    to the theory of Fibonacci sequence
    began in 200 BC by Indian
    Mathematician Pingala. The
    sequence was introduced to the
    Western Mathematics in 1202 by
    Leonardo of Pisa, aka Fibonacci
    Fibonacci sequence
    in
    Thesunflowers
    Fibonacci sequence can be
    seen in the nature such as
    sunflower head’s seed
    arrangement.
     The arrangement of seeds are
    based upon the golden mean
    which corresponds to the golden
    Fibonacci sequence in
    flower petals
     In most of the flower petal
    patterns such as daisies have 34,
    55 or 89 petals ie. The 9th, 10th
    and 11th numbers of the Fibonacci
    sequence.
    Fibonacci sequence in
    seashells
     The numbers form the Fibonacci sequence
    directly corresponds to the spiral found in
    seashells.
     These numbers are called ‘Fibonacci
    rectangles’ or ‘Golden rectangles’.
     These rectangles are unique because each
    rectangle has sides equal to the length of the
    Fibonacci series.
     Within this rectangle we can create a spiral
    with cross sections equal to exactly 1.618
