Abstract

Let G_0=0 G 0 = 0 and G_1=1 G 1 = 1 . The present study deals with the inhomogeneous version \begin{aligned} G_n=G_{n-1}+G_{n-2}+w_{n-2} \end{aligned} G n = G n - 1 + G n - 2 + w n - 2 of the Fibonacci sequence, where w_{n-2} w n - 2 takes value a with probability p , and does value b with 1-p 1 - p . We describe the probability distribution of the values of G_n G n with fixed n , and examine the properties like expected value and variance. The most challenging feature is the fractal-like structure of the distribution.
