This module defines the Fibonacci sequence and verifies its initial terms plus selected coprimality properties. Researchers addressing the 45-tick synchronization gap would cite it to supply the combinatorial substrate for cumulative phase counting. The structure consists of a recursive definition followed by direct inductive checks on small indices.

claimThe Fibonacci sequence satisfies $F_1 = 1$, $F_2 = 1$, and $F_n = F_{n-1} + F_{n-2}$ for $n > 2$.

background

The module sits inside the Gap45 subdomain and supplies the number-theoretic objects required to motivate the 45 appearing in the dimension-forcing chain. It introduces the standard Fibonacci sequence beginning 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, … together with its recursive definition on the natural numbers. The setting draws only on basic arithmetic imported from Mathlib; no Recognition Science primitives such as J-cost or the phi-ladder appear here.

proof idea

The module first installs the recursive fib definition. It then proves the explicit values fib 5 = 5 and fib 6 = 8 by direct computation, followed by two coprimality lemmas establishing that consecutive early terms are coprime.

why it matters in Recognition Science

The module feeds the PhysicalMotivation module, which converts the sequence into a cumulative-phase count that grounds the 45-tick synchronization. This step closes the explicit gap noted in the paper for the dimension-forcing argument (T8).
