The Fibonacci Sequence is Normal Base 10

Published 18 Feb 2022 in math.NT | (2202.08986v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we show that the concatenation of the Fibonacci sequence is \textit{normal} in base $10$, meaning every string of a given length, kk, occurs as frequently as every other string of length kk (there are as many $1$'s as $2$'s and as many $704$'s and $808$'s). Although we know that almost every number is normal, we can name very few of them. It is still unclear if ee, π\pi, or 2\sqrt{2} are normal. We show that concatenating the Fibonacci sequence behind a decimal creates a normal number in every base of the form 5<sup>x×2<sup>y5<sup>x\times2<sup>y. We then provide evidence that potentially extends our result to all integer bases, and claim that the Fibonacci concatenation is \textit{absolutely normal}.
