Abstract:
In this paper, we derive closed forms for reciprocal series, both
finite and infinite, that involve Fibonacci numbers. The term that
defines the denominator of each summand generates squares of Fibonacci
related numbers with subscripts in arithmetic progression. Our method
employs certain algebraic identities that we believe are new. These
identities exhibit the telescoping effect when summed.
