Define the functions f , F : N → N f, F : \mathbb N \to \mathbb N f , F : N → N , by
f ( n ) = [ 3 − 5 2 n ] , F ( k ) = min { n ∈ N ∣ f k ( n ) > 0 } , f(n)=\left[ \frac{3-\sqrt 5}{2} n \right] , F(k) =\min \{n \in \mathbb N|f^k(n) > 0 \}, f ( n ) = [ 2 3 − 5 n ] , F ( k ) = min { n ∈ N ∣ f k ( n ) > 0 } ,
where f k = f ∘ ⋯ ∘ f f^k = f \circ \cdots \circ f f k = f ∘ ⋯ ∘ f is f f f iterated n n n times. Prove that F ( k + 2 ) = 3 F ( k + 1 ) − F ( k ) F(k + 2) = 3F(k + 1) - F(k) F ( k + 2 ) = 3 F ( k + 1 ) − F ( k ) for all k ∈ N . k \in \mathbb N. k ∈ N .
