Abstract
Using the classic two’s complement notation of signed integers, the fundamental arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication are identical to those for unsigned binary numbers. We introduce a Fibonacci-equivalent of the two’s complement notation and we show that addition in this numeration system can be performed by a deterministic finite-state transducer. The result is based on the Berstel adder, which performs addition of the usual Fibonacci representations of nonnegative integers and for which we provide a new constructive proof. Moreover, we characterize the Fibonacci-equivalent of the two’s complement notation as an increasing bijection between ℤ and a particular language.
