Restricted Binary Strings and Generalized Fibonacci Numbers
Abstract
We provide some interesting relations involving k-generalized Fibonacci numbers between the set F(k)n of length n binary strings avoiding k of consecutive 0’s and the set of length n strings avoiding k+1 consecutive 0’s and 1’s with some more restriction on the first and last letter, via a simple bijection. In the special case k=2 a probably new interpretation of Fibonacci numbers is given.Moreover, we describe in a combinatorial way the relation between the strings of F(k)n with an odd numbers of 1’s and the ones with an even number of 1’s.
