Commentary.
The one-step matrix F has rows (0,1) and (1,1). Direct finite matrix multiplication identifies its square Delta_phi with the matrix having rows (1,1) and (1,2).
The squared operator has determinant one and trace three. Its quadratic form is (x_0+x_1)^2+x_1^2, so every nonzero real vector has strictly positive value.
The vectors (1,0) and (1,-1) both give quadratic-form value one. The squared golden ratio and its reciprocal square likewise have product one and sum three.
