Abstract
- This paper defines the set fib of fibbinary numbers and displays its structure in the form of a table of a specialised type, and in array form. It uses the Zeckendorf representation $n \in \mathbf{N}$ to define a bijection $\mathcal{Z}$ between $\mathbf{N}$ and fib. It is proved that the fibbinary array is the image under $\mathcal{Z}$ of the famous Wythoff array. The fibbinary table proves useful pictorial insight into the fractal defined by the Wythoff array. The Wythoff table, obtained as the image under the inverse of $\mathcal{Z}$ of the fibbinary table, leads to a simpler view of the fractal, and may be compared with the (1938) Steinhaus tree.<br />Comment: 10 pages, 5 tables
