Let a, b be two distinct letters. Let τ = (√5−1)/2. Define G to be an infinite word whose nth letter is a (resp., b) if [(n + 1)τ] −[nτ] = 0 (resp., 1). G is called the golden sequence. For m≧0, let Gm denote the suffix of G obtained from G by deleting the first m letters of G. In this thesis, we use two methods to identify the positions where each factor occurs in G. Given two different positive integers m1 and m2, we determine the longest common prefix of Gm1 and Gm2 and its length.
