Phi = 1.618

Phi = 1.618

To connect two parts with the third in a perfect way, a proportion is needed that would hold them together into a single whole. In this case, one part of the whole should relate to the other in the same way as the whole to the greater part.

The Phi number is considered the most beautiful number in the world, the foundation of all living things. One of the sacred places of Ancient Egypt hides this number in its name - Thebes. This number has many names, it has been known to mankind for over 2500 years.

The first mention of this number is found in the work of the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid "Beginnings" (about 300 BC). There, this number is used to build a regular pentagon, which is the basis of the ideal "Platonic Solid" - the dodecahedron, the symbol of the perfect Universe.

Phi is a transcendental number and is expressed as an infinite decimal fraction. Leonardo of Pisa, a contemporary of Leonardo da Vinci, better known as Fibonacci, called this number "divine proportion." Later on the value of the constant "phi" was based on the "golden ratio". The term "golden ratio" was coined in 1835 by Martin Ohm.

The Fibonacci series (0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, etc.) in ancient times was considered a unique key to the laws of the universe. You can find the quotient between two adjacent numbers and approach the "phi" number, but you cannot reach it.

The constant phi was used in the construction of the Cheops pyramid, as well as to create bas-reliefs, household items and decorations from the tomb of Tutankhamun. The proportion of the "golden ratio" is used everywhere to this day in the works of artists, sculptors, architects and even choreographers and musicians.

The French architect Le Corbusier found the meaning of the "phi" constant in the relief from the temple at Abydos, the relief of the pharaoh Ramses, and the facade of the Greek Parthenon. Golden proportions are also hidden in the compass of the ancient Roman city of Pompeii. The phi proportion is also present in the architecture of the human body. (For details, see the Golden Ratio section.)

Definition

Fibonacci numbers or Fibonacci Sequence is a numerical sequence that has a number of properties. For example, the sum of two adjacent numbers of the sequence gives the value of the next one (for example, 1 + 1 = 2; 2 + 3 = 5, etc.), which confirms the existence of the so-called Fibonacci ratios, i.e. constant ratios.

The Fibonacci sequence starts like this: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233 ...

Fibonacci sequence properties


1. The ratio of each number to the next one more and more tends to 0.618 as the ordinal number increases. The ratio of each number to the previous one tends to 1.618 (inverse to 0.618). The number 0.618 is called (PI).

2. When dividing each number by the next one, after one, the number 0.382 is obtained; on the contrary - respectively 2.618.

3. By choosing the ratios in this way, we obtain the basic set of Fibonacci coefficients:… 4.235, 2.618, 1.618, 0.618, 0.382, 0.236.

The connection between the Fibonacci sequence and the "golden ratio"

The Fibonacci sequence asymptotically (approaching more and more slowly) tends to some constant ratio. However, this ratio is rational, that is, it is a number with an infinite, unpredictable sequence of decimal digits in the fractional part. It is impossible to express it precisely.

If any member of the Fibonacci sequence is divided by the one that precedes it (for example, 13: 8), the result will be a value that fluctuates around the irrational value 1.61803398875 ... and, once in a while, then it does not reach it. But even having touched Eternity on it, it is impossible to know the ratio exactly, up to the last decimal digit. For the sake of hardness, we will translate it in the form of 1.618. Special names for this ratio began to be given even before Luca Pacioli (a mid-century mathematician) called it the Divine Proportion. Among its modern names there are such as Golden Ratio, Golden Mean and the ratio of rotating squares. Keplep called this relationship one of the "treasures of geometry". In algebra, its designation is generally accepted by the Greek letter phi

Let's imagine the golden ratio using a line segment as an example.

Consider a segment with ends A and B. Let point C divide the segment AB so that,

AC / CB = CB / AB or

You can think of it like this: A ----- C -------- B

The golden ratio is such a proportional division of a segment into unequal parts, in which the entire segment refers to the larger part as much as the larger part itself refers to the smaller one; or in other words, a smaller segment relates to a larger one as a larger one to everything.

The segments of the golden ratio are expressed by the infinite irrational fraction 0.618 ..., if AB is taken as one, AC = 0.382 .. As we already know the numbers 0.618 and 0.382 are the coefficients of the Fibonacci sequence.

Fibonacci and Golden Ratios in nature and history

It is important to note that Fibonacci, as it were, reminded his sequence to humanity. She was known even to the ancient Greeks and Egyptians. Indeed, since then in nature, architecture, fine arts, mathematics, physics, astronomy, biology and many other fields, patterns have been found described by the Fibonacci coefficients. It's amazing how many constants can be calculated using the Fibonacci sequence, and how its members appear in a huge number of combinations. However, it would not be an exaggeration to say that this is not just a game with numbers, but the most important mathematical expression of natural phenomena ever discovered.

The examples below show some interesting applications of this mathematical sequence.

1. The shell is spirally wound. If you unfold it, you get a length slightly inferior to the length of the snake. A small ten-centimeter shell has a spiral 35 cm long. The shape of the spiral-wound shell attracted the attention of Archimedes. The point is that the ratio of the measurements of the shell curls is constant and equal to 1.618. Archimedes studied the spiral of shells and derived the equation for the spiral. The spiral drawn from this equation is named after him. The increase in her step is always uniform. Currently, the Archimedes spiral is widely used in technology.

2. Plants and animals ... Even Goethe emphasized the tendency of nature to spiral. The helical and spiral arrangement of leaves on tree branches was noticed long ago. The spiral was seen in the arrangement of sunflower seeds, in pine cones, pineapples, cacti, etc. The joint work of botanists and mathematicians has shed light on these amazing natural phenomena. It turned out that in the arrangement of leaves on a branch of sunflower seeds, pine cones, the Fibonacci series manifests itself, and therefore the law of the golden section manifests itself. The spider weaves the web in a spiral manner. A hurricane is spinning in a spiral. A frightened herd of reindeer scatters in a spiral. The DNA molecule is twisted in a double helix. Goethe called the spiral "the curve of life".

Among the roadside grasses, an unremarkable plant grows - chicory. Let's take a closer look at him. A process has formed from the main stem. The first sheet is located right there. The shoot makes a strong ejection into space, stops, releases a leaf, but is shorter than the first, again makes an ejection into space, but with less force, releases a leaf of an even smaller size and ejects again. If the first emission is taken as 100 units, then the second is equal to 62 units, the third is 38, the fourth is 24, etc. The length of the petals is also subject to the golden ratio. In growth, the conquest of space, the plant retained certain proportions. The impulses of its growth gradually decreased in proportion to the golden section.

The lizard is viviparous. In a lizard, at first glance, proportions pleasant to our eyes are caught - the length of its tail is as much related to the length of the rest of the body as 62 to 38.

In both the plant and the animal world, the formative tendency of nature is persistently breaking through - symmetry with respect to the direction of growth and movement. Here the golden ratio appears in the proportions of parts perpendicular to the direction of growth. Nature has carried out the division into symmetrical parts and golden proportions. In the parts, the repetition of the structure of the whole is manifested.

Pierre Curie at the beginning of this century formulated a number of profound ideas of symmetry. He argued that one cannot consider the symmetry of any body without considering the symmetry of the environment. The patterns of golden symmetry are manifested in the energy transitions of elementary particles, in the structure of some chemical compounds, in planetary and space systems, in the genetic structures of living organisms. These patterns, as indicated above, are in the structure of individual organs of a person and the body as a whole, and are also manifested in biorhythms and the functioning of the brain and visual perception.

3. Space. It is known from the history of astronomy that I. Titius, a German astronomer of the 18th century, with the help of this series (Fibonacci) found the regularity and order in the distances between the planets of the solar system

However, one case that seemingly contradicted the law: there was no planet between Mars and Jupiter. Concentrated observation of this region of the sky led to the discovery of the asteroid belt. This happened after the death of Titius at the beginning of the 19th century.

The Fibonacci series is widely used: it is used to represent the architectonics of living beings, and man-made structures, and the structure of the Galaxies. These facts are evidence of the independence of the number series from the conditions of its manifestation, which is one of the signs of its universality.

4. Pyramids. Many have tried to unravel the secrets of the pyramid at Giza. Unlike other Egyptian pyramids, this is not a tomb, but rather an insoluble puzzle of number combinations. The remarkable ingenuity, skill, time and labor of the architects of the pyramid, which they used in the construction of the eternal symbol, indicate the extreme importance of the message that they wanted to convey to future generations. Their era was preliterate, pre-hieroglyphic, and symbols were the only means of recording discoveries. The key to the geometrical-mathematical secret of the pyramid in Giza, which had been a mystery to mankind for so long, was actually given to Herodotus by the temple priests, who informed him that the pyramid was built so that the area of ​​each of its faces was equal to the square of its height.

Triangle area

356 x 440/2 = 78320

Square area

280 x 280 = 78400

The length of the edge of the base of the pyramid at Giza is 783.3 feet (238.7 m), the height of the pyramid is 484.4 feet (147.6 m). The length of the base rib divided by the height leads to the ratio Ф = 1.618. A height of 484.4 feet corresponds to 5813 inches (5-8-13) - these are numbers from the Fibonacci sequence. These interesting observations suggest that the design of the pyramid is based on the proportion Φ = 1.618. Some modern scholars are inclined to interpret that the ancient Egyptians built it with the sole purpose of transmitting knowledge that they wanted to preserve for future generations. Intensive studies of the pyramid at Giza have shown how extensive knowledge in mathematics and astrology was at that time. In all internal and external proportions of the pyramid, the number 1.618 plays a central role.

Pyramids in Mexico. Not only are the Egyptian pyramids built in accordance with the perfect proportions of the golden ratio, the same phenomenon is found in the Mexican pyramids. The idea arises that both Egyptian and Mexican pyramids were erected at approximately the same time by people of common descent.

In the records of the members of this secret society, this set of numbers plays a very important role. But which one? What were the Illuminati hiding behind these numbers?

The fact is that according to the surviving data, the Illuminati possessed extensive knowledge not only in the field of occult sciences, but also mathematics, astronomy, astrology, chemistry and alchemy, medicine and psychology. They also had access to some ancient sources of knowledge.

Many researchers believe that behind these numbers may be hidden a universal code of life, a recipe for a philosophical stone, etc.

Golden ratio and Fibonacci numbers in photography

Created on 08.24.2012 09:49

This article is devoted to the basic rules and concepts related both directly to the shooting process and to the subsequent processing of the resulting image in graphic editors. It will be about the rules of the "Golden Section", geometric proportions, which, if used correctly and competently, make it possible to create amazing and harmonious works.

The golden ratio is truly the first thing a beginner photographer should know about! It is sometimes called the rule of thirds. The aesthetic value of this rule was known in ancient times. Consciously use the rule of thirds - the great da Vinci, after him other artists began to use this rule, and after them photographers and cameramen, architects and designers. Let's start with the math.

Mathematical interpretation

Mathematically, the "Golden Ratio" is defined as follows - the ratio of the whole to the greater part should be equal to the ratio of the greater part to the lesser. If we divide a segment of a straight line into two unequal parts so that its length (a + b) relates to the greater part (a) in the same way as this greater part to the smaller part (b), we get the result, which is called the "Golden Section". This number equals 1.618 or 0.618. Parts of the whole segment (a + b), taken as 1, are expressed in relative values: a = 0.62 ..., b = 0.38 or in percentages of 62% and 38%.

These numbers are called "gold".

An example of using the “Golden Section” rule in photography can be the location of the main components of the frame at special points - “visual centers”. Often four points are used, located at a distance of 3/8 and 5/8 from the corresponding edges of the plane.

Fig. 2 Practical use of the "Golden Section" rule when composing a shot.

Of course, at the time of shooting, we are not able to calculate and visually postpone the necessary proportions in our mind. Therefore, at the time of shooting, a simplified version of the “Golden Section” or “Thirds” rule is used. It consists in the following: we mentally divide the frame into three parts horizontally and vertically and, at the intersection points of the imaginary lines, place the key details of the scene being shot. The simplest grid of "Thirds" looks like this: (Fig. 3).

Thus, a frame formed according to the rule of the golden section may look, for example, like this: (Figure 4, 5)

Of course, we can combine subject placement depending on the intent of the photographer and the subject. In fig. Figures 6-9 show different uses of the rule.

When using the “Golden Section” rule, one should not forget about the horizon line.

The correct setting of the horizon should correspond, depending on the composition, to one of the lines of the horizontal thirds, upper or lower. Figure 10 shows the positioning of the horizon along the bottom thirds line.

One can talk endlessly about the "golden ratio". Below I want to give different variants of grids, created according to the rule of "Golden Ratio", for different compositional options. In order to understand these principles, you need to experimentally try to match the grids with your photos on your own. Basic grids look like this (Figure 11-17):

Equilibrium rule.

Compositionally, the frame must be built so that the objects on it are balanced. What does it mean? This means that pictures will look harmonious in which either symmetry is observed (Fig. 18 - in this case, the balancing elements are the pillars on the right and left), or the main subject of the exposure is compensated for by an additional or secondary one (Fig. 19 - the crane on the left balances the composition on the right ).

As V. Tsoi sang: “We need a place to step forward”!

Any picture, even built according to the rule of the "Golden Section", can be misunderstood and misunderstood, just because the direction of movement (gaze, action) of the subject is not taken into account. In Fig. 20, the girl has absolutely no room to continue her movement (she leaves the frame), although the frame is built in the proportions of the “Golden Section”. In Figure 21, she has such a space. I repeat, this rule applies not only to the movement (people, animal machines), but also the gaze (portrait), the dynamics of the rotation of the body, face, or plot action.

Fibonacci numbers are elements of a numerical sequence in which each subsequent number is equal to the sum of the two previous numbers. The name is named after the Italian mathematician of medieval Europe Leonardo of Pisa, nicknamed Fibonacci, which means "a good son was born."

Fibonacci numbers are also called the golden ratio. Without going into mathematics, we can only say one thing - images that agree with the golden ratio and Fibonacci numbers are especially favorable for the human eye.

Many photographers and designers stick to 1: 1.618 aspect ratios for better composition.

This sequence was well known in India, where it was used in the metric sciences. Later, many researchers began to notice this sequence in nature and space.

The next two videos and the images that follow will help you better understand how this works in practice.

Below are photos that were taken using the Fibonacci proportions.

However, this is not all that can be done with the golden ratio. If we divide the unit by 0.618, then we get 1.618, if we square it, then we get 2.618, if we square it, we get the number 4.236. These are Fibonacci expansion ratios. The only thing missing is the number 3.236, which was proposed by John Murphy.


What do experts think of sequencing

Someone might say that these numbers are already familiar because they are used in technical analysis programs to determine the magnitude of retracements and expansions. In addition, these same series play an important role in Eliot's wave theory. They are its numerical basis.

Our expert Nikolay Verified portfolio manager of the Vostok investment company.

  • - Nikolay, do you think the appearance of the Fibonacci numbers and its derivatives on the charts of various instruments is accidental? And can we say: "Fibonacci series practical application" takes place?
  • - I have a bad attitude towards mysticism. And even more so on the stock exchange charts. Everything has its reasons. in the book "Fibonacci Levels" he beautifully told where the golden ratio appears, so he was not surprised that it appeared on the stock exchange quotes charts. But in vain! In many of the examples he gave, pi often appears. But for some reason it is not in the price ratios.
  • - So you do not believe in the effectiveness of the Eliot wave principle?
  • - No, that's not the point. The wave principle is one thing. The numerical ratio is different. And the reasons for their appearance on price charts are the third
  • - What, in your opinion, are the reasons for the appearance of the golden ratio on stock charts?
  • - The correct answer to this question may be able to earn the Nobel Prize in economics. While we can guess about the true reasons. They are clearly not in harmony with nature. There are many exchange pricing models. They do not explain the indicated phenomenon. But not understanding the nature of a phenomenon should not deny the phenomenon as such.
  • - And if ever this law is opened, will it be able to destroy the exchange process?
  • - As the same theory of waves shows, the law of changes in stock prices is pure psychology. It seems to me that knowledge of this law will not change anything and will not be able to destroy the exchange.

The overlap of the foundations of the principles of mathematics in a variety of theories seems incredible. Maybe it’s a fantasy or a fit for the final result. Wait and see. Much of what was previously considered unusual or not possible: space exploration, for example, has become commonplace and does not surprise anyone. Also, the wave theory, which may be incomprehensible, will become more accessible and understandable over time. What was previously unnecessary, in the hands of an experienced analyst, will become a powerful tool for predicting future behavior.

Fibonacci numbers in nature.

Watch

Now, let's talk about how you can refute the fact that the Fibonacci digital series is involved in any patterns in nature.

Take any other two numbers and build a sequence with the same logic as the Fibonacci numbers. That is, the next term in the sequence is equal to the sum of the two previous ones. For example, let's take two numbers: 6 and 51. Now let's build a sequence, which we end with two numbers 1860 and 3009. Note that when dividing these numbers, we get a number close to the golden ratio.

At the same time, the numbers that were obtained by dividing other pairs decreased from the first to the last, which allows us to assert that if this series is continued infinitely, then we will receive a number equal to the golden ratio.

Thus, Fibonacci numbers do not stand out by themselves. There are other sequences of numbers, of which there are infinitely many, which give, as a result of the same operations, the golden number phi.

Fibonacci was not esoteric. He didn’t want to put any mysticism into numbers, he was just solving an ordinary problem about rabbits. And he wrote a sequence of numbers that followed from his problem, in the first, second and other months, how many rabbits there will be after breeding. Within a year, he received that very sequence. And I didn't make a relationship. There was no golden proportion, the Divine attitude was out of the question. All this was invented after him during the Renaissance.

Before mathematics, the merits of Fibonacci are enormous. He adopted the system of numbers from the Arabs and proved its validity. It was a hard and long struggle. From the Roman numeral system: heavy and inconvenient for counting. She disappeared after the French Revolution. Fibonacci has nothing to do with the golden ratio.

There are infinitely many spirals, the most popular are: natural logarithm spiral, Archimedes spiral, hyperbolic spiral.

Now let's take a look at the Fibonacci spiral. This piecewise composite aggregate consists of several quarters of a circle. And it is not a spiral as such.

Output

No matter how long we look for confirmation or refutation of the applicability of the Fibonacci series on the stock exchange, such a practice exists.

Huge masses of people act according to the Fibonacci ruler, which is found in many user terminals. Therefore, whether we like it or not: Fibonacci numbers have an impact on, and we can take advantage of this influence.

Introduction.

The relevance of research. In my opinion, these days little attention is paid to mathematical theorems and facts known from the history of the development of science. Using the Fibonacci numbers as an example, I would like to show how global they can and are widely applicable not only in mathematics, but also in everyday life.

The aim of my work is to study the history, properties, applications and connections of Fibonacci numbers with the golden ratio.

Chapter 1. Fibonacci numbers and their history.

Leonardo (1170-1250) was born in Pisa. Later he received the nickname Fibonacci, which means "well-born son." His father traded in the Arab countries of North Africa. There, Leonardo studied mathematics with Arab teachers, and also got acquainted with the achievements of Indian and ancient Greek scientists from treatises in Arabic translation. Having mastered all the material he studied, he created his own book - "The Book of the Abacus" (the first edition was written in 1202, but only the reprint of 1228 has survived to us). Thus, he became the first medieval outstanding mathematician, and also introduced Europe to Arabic numerals and the decimal system of calculation, which we use every day from early years to old age.

The Abacus Book can be divided into five parts according to content. The first five chapters of the book are devoted to the arithmetic of integers based on decimal numbering. Chapter 6-7 describes operations with ordinary fractions. Chapter 8-10 describes techniques for solving problems using proportions. Chapter 11 deals with mixing problems, chapter 12 deals with the so-called Fibonacci numbers. The following sections describe some more techniques with numbers and tasks on various topics.

The main problem explaining the appearance of a series of Fibonacci numbers is the problem of rabbits. The question of the problem sounds like this: "How many pairs of rabbits are born from one pair in one year?" An explanation is given to the problem that a couple of rabbits give birth to another pair in a month, and by nature, rabbits begin to give birth to offspring in the second month after their birth. The author gives us a solution to the problem. It turns out that in the first month the first couple will give birth to another one. In the second, the first couple will give birth to another one - there will be three couples. In the 3rd month, two couples will give birth - originally given and born in the first month. It turns out 5 pairs. And so on, using the same logic in reasoning, we get that in the fourth month there will be 8 pairs, in the fifth 13, in the sixth 21, in the seventh 34, in the eighth 55, in the ninth 89, in the tenth 144, in the eleventh 233, at the twelfth 377.


We can designate the number of rabbits in any of the twelve months as u n. We get a series of numbers:

In a series of these numbers, each term is equal to the sum of the two previous ones. It turns out that any term in the equation can be determined by the equation:

Consider an important special case for this equation when u 1 and u 2 = 1. We will receive a sequence of numbers 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377 ... We received the same sequence of numbers in the problem about rabbits. These numbers are named Fibonacci numbers after the author.

These numbers as well as equation (2) have many properties, which will be considered in my work.

Chapter 2. Relationship between a series of Fibonacci numbers and progressions. The main properties of the series.

In order to deduce the basic properties of the series, let us take as an example the first five numbers: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8. We see that each new number is equal to the sum of the two previous ones. From here we can derive the formula for obtaining any number of the series, as well as the formula for the sum of any number of numbers from the series.

We see that the formulas are fundamentally different from the formulas inherent in arithmetic and geometric progressions. And also we can say that only the first two numbers from the row can refer to any progressions.

Arithmetic and geometric progressions have only the two previously mentioned formulas, and in order to calculate, for example, the sum of even, odd or the sum of squares of numbers, each time you have to solve a problem for a separate series. But since the series of Fibonacci numbers is unchanged (it has no steps, denominators and various first members of the progression), this means that for it you can derive a formula for obtaining the sums of the individual elements of the series. For example, here is a formula for obtaining the sum of the numbers in a series with even numbers:

There is a similar formula for odd-numbered numbers from a series:

There is also a formula for obtaining the sum of numbers from a series squared:

Fibonacci numbers have another unique property that is not typical for arithmetic and geometric progressions. The ratio of a number of numbers (the previous to the next) constantly tends to the value 0.618, a similar situation occurs when F n is divided by F n +2 (the ratio tends to 0.382), when F n is divided by F n +3 (the ratio tends to 0.236), and so Further. As a result, we got a set of relationships. The set of their values ​​and values ​​inverse to them are called Fibonacci coefficients. And the inverse value 0.618 - 1.618 is a number

("Fi"). It is also one of a pair of roots of the series-characteristic polynomial x 2 -x-1.

Chapter 3. Golden ratio and Fibonacci numbers.

The golden ratio (golden ratio, division in extreme and average ratio) is the division of a continuous value into two parts in such a ratio in which the smaller part relates to the larger one as the larger one to the whole value.

Let's try to explain this using the example of an infinite straight line. Let us take the whole line c as a unit. Let's divide it into two parts a and b, which divide the line into segments equal with respect to 1, like 0.618 and 0.382, respectively. And these numbers are one of the coefficients of a series of Fibonacci numbers. We find that the ratio of large parts of this line to smaller ones asymptotically approaches the number

.

There are two main figures that reflect the principle of the golden ratio.

The golden ratio was already known to the ancient Greeks. Archimedes is considered the discoverer of the Archimedes spiral. Its meaning is that each new curl increases by a certain number, and the ratio of these curls is equal to the number

.

The second figure is the golden triangle. This is an isosceles triangle in which the ratio of the sides to the base is
