Branch

Branch links a mathematical object to the field that studies it most closely. Wikipedia notes Fibonacci numbers are "strongly related to the golden ratio" and "closely related to Lucas numbers," ties that place the sequence within number theory and combinatorics at once. This dimension groups objects that belong to the same branch of mathematics.
