A tiling approach to Fibonacci product identities

Jacob Artz and Michael Rowell

Vol. 2 (2009), No. 5, 581–587
Abstract

In 1998 Filipponi and Hart introduced a number of Fibonacci product identities. This paper provides a combinatorial proof for such identities via tilings. The methods used in the proof are then further used to produce some new Zeckendorf representations and a known Fibonacci identity.
