Abstract

‎The golden ratio $\phi=\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}=1/61803398874...$ is the root of the polynomial $x^2-x-1=0$‎, ‎and is the one of the important numbers in mathematics‎. ‎The golden ratio is also used in many fields of science‎. ‎The golden ratio appears in some patterns in nature‎, ‎including the spiral arrangement of leaves and other plant parts‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we present a sequence of golden numbers $\{\phi_n\}_n$ and study their properties‎.
