    The sequence c0,c1,…,cn,…c_{0}, c_{1}, \ldots, c_{n}, \ldots is defined by c0=1,c1=0c_{0}=1, c_{1}=0 and cn+2=cn+1+cnc_{n+2}=c_{n+1}+c_{n} for n≥0n \geq 0. Consider the set SS of ordered pairs (x,y)(x, y) for which there is a finite set JJ of positive integers such that x=∑j∈Jcj,y=∑j∈Jcj−1x=\sum_{j \in J} c_{j}, y=\sum_{j \in J} c_{j-1}. Prove that there exist real numbers α,β\alpha, \beta and m,Mm, M with the following property: An ordered pair of nonnegative integers (x,y)(x, y) satisfies the inequality m<αx+βy<Mm<\alpha x+\beta y<M if and only if (x,y)∈S(x, y) \in S. N. B. A sum over the elements of the empty set is assumed to be 0 . (Russia)
