a(n) = floor(lim_{k->oo} Fibonacci(k)/Fibonacci(k-n)). - Jon Perry, Jun 10 2003
For n > 1, a(n) is the maximum element in the continued fraction for A000045(n)*phi. - Benoit Cloitre, Jun 19 2005
a(n) is also the number of circles curvature (rounded down) inscribed in kite arranged as spiral form, starting with a unit circle. See illustration in links. - Kival Ngaokrajang, Aug 29 2013
a(n) is the n-th Lucas number (A000032) if n is odd, and a(n) is the n-th Lucas number minus 1 if n is even. (Mario Catalani's formula below expresses this fact.) This is related to the fact that the powers of phi approach the values of the Lucas numbers, the odd powers from above and the even powers from below. - Geoffrey Caveney, Apr 18 2014
a(n) is the sum of the last summands over all Arndt compositions of n (see the Checa link). - Daniel Checa, Dec 25 2023

FORMULA
|
a(n) = a(n-1) + 2*a(n-2) - a(n-3) - a(n-4).
a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) + (1-(-1)^n)/2 = a(n-1) + a(n-2) + A000035(n).
a(n) = A000032(n) - (1 + (-1)^n)/2. - Mario Catalani (mario.catalani(AT)unito.it), Jan 17 2003
G.f.: (1-x^2+x^3)/((1+x)*(1-x)*(1-x-x^2)). - R. J. Mathar, Sep 06 2008
a(2n-1) = (Fibonacci(4n+1)-2)/Fibonacci(2n+2). - Gary Detlefs, Feb 16 2011
a(n) = floor(Fibonacci(2n+3)/Fibonacci(n+3)). - Gary Detlefs, Feb 28 2011
a(2n) = Fibonacci(2*n-1) + Fibonacci(2*n+1) - 1. - Gary Detlefs, Mar 10 2011
a(n+6) - a(n-6) = 40*A000045(n), case k=6 of my formula above. - Paul Curtz, Jun 13 2013
a(n-1) + a(n+2) = A022319(n). (End)
a(n) = ((-1)^(1+n)-1)/2 + ((1-sqrt(5))/2)^n + ((1+sqrt(5))/2)^n. - Colin Barker, Nov 05 2017
E.g.f.: 2*exp(x/2)*cosh(sqrt(5)*x/2) - cosh(x). - Stefano Spezia, Jul 26 2022
a(n) = floor(Fibonacci(n)*phi) + Fibonacci(n-1) = A074331(n) + A000045(n-1) = A052952(n-1) + A000045(n-1). This is the case k=1 of the formula (also found in A128440): floor(k * phi^n) = floor(Fibonacci(n)*k*phi) + Fibonacci(n-1) * k. - Chunqing Liu, Oct 03 2023
