This paper deals with the interconnections between finite weakly
superincreasing distributions, the Fibonacci sequence and
Hessenberg matrices. A frequency distribution, to be called
the Fibonacci distribution, is introduced that expresses the core
of the connections among these three concepts. Using a Hessenberg
representation of finite weakly superincreasing distributions, it
is shown that, among all such n-string frequency distributions,
the Fibonacci distribution achieves the maximum expected codeword
length.
