Abstract:

In this paper, we show that for any positive integer $ k$, the set

$\displaystyle \left\{\left(\frac{\phi(F_{n+1})}{\phi(F_n)},\frac{\phi(F_{n+2})}{\phi(F_n)},\ldots,\frac{\phi(F_{n+k})}{\phi(F_n)}\right):n\ge
1\right\}
$

is dense in $ \mathbb{R}^{k}_{\ge 0}$, where $ \phi(m)$ is the Euler function of the positive integer $ m$ and $ F_n$ is the $ n$th Fibonacci number.
