1. Introduction
The concept of convergence plays a pivotal role, providing foundational understanding in various branches of mathematics. The classical notions of convergence have been thoroughly explored and widely applied across a multitude of mathematical areas. However, these classical methods often fail to capture the more complex behaviors of sequences in mathematics. To address these limitations, the concept of statistical convergence was proposed. This idea was first independently put forward by Fast [1] and Steinhaus [2] in close succession. The idea behind statistical convergence can also be traced back to earlier work, specifically in [3], where the notion of almost convergence was discussed. This earlier concept has since been shown to be equivalent to what is now known as statistical convergence. Let (the set of natural numbers). Then, the natural density of is denoted as and is formally defined by
if the limit exists, in which represents the count of elements in that are less than or equal to (see [4]).
A sequence is defined to be statistically convergent to if the set has a natural density zero for all that is,
Maddox [5] broadened the scope of this concept to include sequences within Hausdorff locally convex topological vector spaces. Kolk [6] initiated the examination of its relevance to Banach space theory. In [7], the researchers identified a notable link between statistical convergence and various classical properties. They specifically characterized Banach spaces with separable duals in a unique way that is not possible through conventional convergence methods. Recent studies on this concept can be found in references [8,9,10].
Karakaya and Chishti [11] initially defined weighted statistical convergence, and Mursaleen et al. [12] later refined the concept. Recently, Ghosal [13] updated and clarified the framework of weighted statistical convergence.
Let be a sequence of non-negative numbers such that as and
Let A weighted density of is defined by
provided the limit exists.
A sequence is defined as weighted statistically convergent to if for every
A Fibonacci sequence, as described in [14], is a sequence in which each term results from adding the two previous terms and follows the recurrence relation Consequently, the sequence begins as follows:
Fibonacci numbers possess several fundamental characteristics, including
Kara and Basarir [15] were the pioneers in incorporating the Fibonacci sequence into sequence space theory. Basarir et al. [16] developed the Fibonacci difference sequence spaces, denoted as and in which and c denote the paces of null and convergent sequences, respectively, i.e.,
and
in which represents the –transform of defined as
Further details and uses concerning the use of the Fibonacci sequence are available in [17,18,19,20].
The concept of a modulus function was first outlined in [21]. A function is considered a modulus function (or simply, a modulus) if it satisfies the following criteria:
- ;
- for every ;
- is continuous from the right at 0;
- is increasing.
This type of function can exhibit either unbounded or bounded. For example, exemplifies an unbounded modulus, while is an instance of a bounded modulus. We refer to and as the collections of all unbounded and bounded modulus functions, respectively, in this study. In the context of sequence spaces, modulus functions serve as a crucial tool for defining and analyzing various types of convergence and summability. Various contributors have formulated and established different sequence spaces through the use of modulus functions, leveraging them to introduce and develop a diverse array of sequence spaces, thereby making significant contributions to the field (for an example, see [22,23,24,25,26]).
The primary results of this study include the development of novel definitions for weighted -Fibonacci statistical summability, weighted -Fibonacci statistical convergence, and weighted -Fibonacci statistical Cauchy. Furthermore, we extend the concepts of weighted Fibonacci -statistical limit points and weighted Fibonacci -statistical cluster points. In the context of this research, the motivation for using the Fibonacci structure lies in its particular appropriateness for extending classical concepts of convergence and summability. By leveraging its recursive and weighted properties, we introduce novel definitions that offer a richer perspective on sequence behavior. This approach not only generalizes traditional convergence methods but also bridges them with naturally occurring patterns, making this study more intuitive and widely applicable. Thus, the Fibonacci sequence serves as a natural and mathematically elegant basis for advancing the theoretical framework of weighted statistical convergence and summability.
This paper is organized as follows: In Section 2, we present the main definitions, foundational concepts, and theorems that form the basis of our study. Section 3 introduces and examines the concepts of weighted Fibonacci -statistical convergence and weighted Fibonacci -statistical cluster points, including a detailed analysis of their properties and implications. Finally, the conclusion summarizes the key results, highlights the contributions of this work, and suggests potential directions for future research in related fields.

4. Conclusions
This research introduces the notions of weighted -Fibonacci statistical summability, weighted -Fibonacci statistical convergence, and weighted -Fibonacci statistical Cauchy, along with the broader concepts of weighted Fibonacci -statistical limit points and weighted Fibonacci -statistical cluster points. These new definitions provide a more generalized framework than previously established concepts.
This paper aims to offer meaningful insights that can drive future research in related fields. For example, the concept of double sequences examined in [28] can be extended to introduce notions of weighted -Fibonacci statistical summability, weighted Fibonacci statistical convergence, and weighted -Fibonacci statistical Cauchy for double sequences. Such extensions not only enhance existing theoretical frameworks but also present new directions for research and application within mathematical analysis.
Furthermore, the integration of these concepts into Korovkin-type theorems, as discussed in [29,30,31,32,33], offers potential for practical applications in computational mathematics. Specifically, the use of Fibonacci-weighted approaches could aid in solving large structured linear systems more efficiently, presenting an exciting direction for further exploration. Future work may also explore modifications and extensions of these methods to other types of sequences, such as lacunary or strongly summable sequences, or examine the application of modulus functions in new mathematical areas, including sequence space analysis and functional analysis. These possibilities underscore the versatility and wide-ranging potential of the methods introduced in this paper.
