Willem Abraham Wythoff (1850–1937) was a Dutch mathematician known for his work in number theory and combinatorial geometry. He is best recognized for Wythoff’s sequences, which are infinite sequences generated from certain mathematical processes. One of the most notable contributions was the development of Wythoff's game, a combinatorial game played with piles of stones that has connections to the Fibonacci sequence and other mathematical concepts.
