Fibonacci Sequence : Diagonalization of Iteration Matrix

The Fibonacci sequence is defined recursively as f_(n+1) = f_n + f_(n-1)  .

Obtain a closed form formulas for f_n using the iteration matrix (0,1,1,1) applied to the vector .. (see attached file). Consider a similar transform to diagonalize the iteration matrix.
