This is a little proof of concept of a very curious matrix that I have derived that allows for multiple fibonacci terms to be calculated in parallel using only a subset of the previous terms:
Important relations
F( n - 0 ) = F( n - 1 ) + F( n - 2 )
F( n - 1 ) = F( n - 2 ) + F( n - 3 )
F( n - 2 ) = F( n - 3 ) + F( n - 4 )
F( n - 3 ) = F( n - 4 ) + F( n - 5 )
F( n - 4 ) = F( n - 5 ) + F( n - 6 )
Guided substitutions, favoring power-of-two coefficients(marked with *).
Also limiting the dependencies to only the previous four terms.
F( n ) = F( n - 1 ) + F( n - 2 )
= ( F( n - 2 ) + F( n - 3 ) ) + F( n - 2 )
* = 2 * F( n - 2 ) + F( n - 3 )
= 2 * (F( n - 3 ) + F( n - 4 )) + F( n - 3 )
= 3 * F( n - 3 ) + 2 * F( n - 4 )
F( n + 1 ) = F( n ) + F( n - 1 )
= ( F( n - 1 ) + F( n - 2 ) ) + F( n - 1 )
* = 2 * F( n - 1 ) + F( n - 2 )
= 2 * (F( n - 2 ) + F( n - 3 )) + F( n - 2 )
= 3 * F( n - 2 ) + 2 * F( n - 3 )
F( n + 2 ) = F( n + 1 ) + F( n )
= (F( n ) + F( n - 1 )) + F( n )
= 2 * F( n ) + F( n - 1 )
= 2 * (F( n - 1 ) + F( n - 2 )) + F( n - 1 )
= 2 * F( n - 1 ) + 2 * F( n - 2 ) + F( n - 1 )
= 3 * F( n - 1 ) + 2 * F( n - 2 )
= 2 * F( n ) + F( n - 1 )
= 2 * ( 2 * F( n - 2 ) + F( n - 3 ) ) + F( n - 1 )
* = 4 * F( n - 2 ) + 2 * F( n - 3 ) + F( n - 1 )
F( n + 3 ) = F( n + 2 ) + F( n + 1 )
= 3 * F( n - 1 ) + 2 * F( n - 2 ) + 3 * F( n - 2 ) + 2 * F( n - 3 )
= 3 * F( n - 1 ) + 5 * F( n - 2 ) + 2 * F( n - 3 )
= 3 * F( n - 1 ) + 2 * F( n - 2 ) + F( n ) + F( n - 1 )
= 4 * F( n - 1 ) + 2 * F( n - 2 ) + F( n )
* = 4 * F( n - 1 ) + 4 * F( n - 2 ) + F( n - 3 )
Here, this matrix allows the next four fibonacci terms to be calculated using only the previous four terms. The coefficients curiously follow a pattern similar to Pascal's Triangle.
F( n + 4 * k + 3 ) = [ 4 4 1 0 ]^k ( F( n - 1 ) )
F( n + 4 * k + 2 ) = [ 1 4 2 0 ] ( F( n - 2 ) )
F( n + 4 * k + 1 ) = [ 2 1 0 0 ] ( F( n - 3 ) )
F( n + 4 * k + 0 ) = [ 1 1 0 0 ] ( F( n - 4 ) )
Exponentiation allows for a much larger 4*k stride of fibonacci values
exp 1, Skip 4
F( n + 11 ) = [ 4 4 1 0 ]^1 ( F( n - 1 ) )
F( n + 10 ) = [ 1 4 2 0 ] ( F( n - 2 ) )
F( n + 9 ) = [ 2 1 0 0 ] ( F( n - 3 ) )
F( n + 8 ) = [ 1 1 0 0 ] ( F( n - 4 ) )
exp 2, Skip 8
F( n + 11 ) = [ 4 4 1 0 ]^2 ( F( n - 1 ) )
F( n + 10 ) = [ 1 4 2 0 ] ( F( n - 2 ) )
F( n + 9 ) = [ 2 1 0 0 ] ( F( n - 3 ) )
F( n + 8 ) = [ 1 1 0 0 ] ( F( n - 4 ) )
F( n + 11 ) = [ 22 33 12 0 ] ( F( n - 1 ) )
F( n + 10 ) = [ 12 22 9 0 ] ( F( n - 2 ) )
F( n + 9 ) = [ 9 12 4 0 ] ( F( n - 3 ) )
F( n 8 ) = [ 5 8 3 0 ] ( F( n - 4 ) )
exp 3, skip 12
F( n + 15 ) = [ 4 4 1 0 ]^3 ( F( n - 1 ) )
F( n + 14 ) = [ 1 4 2 0 ] ( F( n - 2 ) )
F( n + 13 ) = [ 2 1 0 0 ] ( F( n - 3 ) )
F( n 12 ) = [ 1 1 0 0 ] ( F( n - 4 ) )
F( n + 15 ) = [ 145 232 88 0 ] ( F( n - 1 ) )
F( n + 14 ) = [ 88 145 56 0 ] ( F( n - 2 ) )
F( n + 13 ) = [ 56 88 33 0 ] ( F( n - 3 ) )
F( n + 12 ) = [ 34 55 21 0 ] ( F( n - 4 ) )
The coefficients of this matrix all happen to be powers of two, or zero, which
reduces the matrix multiplication into very fast and simple bit shifts to the
left(_mm_sllv_epi32) and horizontal adds(transpose the matrix, and use
_mm_add_epi32).
On an Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-6100 CPU @ 3.70GHz, batches of four fibonacci terms(mod 2^32) can be calculated, on average, in parallel in only 21ns using SSE instructions.

While other methods, on average, would take hundreds of nanoseconds just to serially calculate one fibonacci term.
