A Fibonacci heap can be used to improve the running time of (Click link for more info and facts about Dijkstra's algorithm) Dijkstra's algorithm for computing shortest paths in a graph and (Click link for more info and facts about Prim's algorithm) Prim's algorithm for computing a minimum spanning tree of a graph.
The name of Fibonacci heap comes from (A number in the Fibonacci sequence) Fibonacci numbers which are used in the running time analysis.
Fibonacci heaps were discovered by Michael L. Fredman and (Click link for more info and facts about Robert E. Tarjan) Robert E. Tarjan in 1984 and first published in a scientific journal in 1987.

A Fibonacci heap is a collection of trees satisfying the minimum-heap property, that is, the key of a child is always greater than or equal to the key of the parent.
Fibonacci heaps were developed by Michael L. Fredman and Robert E. Tarjan in 1984 and first published in a scientific journal in 1987.

 Binary heap - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Heaps where the comparison function is mathematical "greater than" are called max-heaps; those where the comparison function is mathematical "less than" are called "min-heaps".
Note that the ordering of siblings in a heap is not specified by the heap property, so the two children of a parent can be freely interchanged (as long as this does not violate the shape property).
We can do this in O(log n) time, using a binary heap, by adding the element on the bottom level of the heap regardless, then considering the added element and its parent and swapping the element and its parent if need be until we are assured the heap property remains.

Binomial Heap A binomial heap is a set of binomial trees that satisfies the binomial heap properties: Each tree is heap ordered: the key of a node is greater than or equal to the key of its parent.
The trees in a fibonacci heap are not constrained to be binomial trees.
The fibonacci heap is a data structure that performs all the basic heap operations in O(1) amortized time except extract-min and delete which take O(log n) amortized time.

Binary Heap: A complete, partially ordered binary tree (the value in each internal node is less or equal to the values of its children).
The Binomial heap is thus a PRIORITY QUEUE.
Fibonacci Heap: A lazy binomial heap in which consolidation is delayed until delete-min, thus a priority queue with better amortized running time.

We were interested in the binomial heap (a mergeable heap) because Union() is effected in lg n time; in an amortized analysis, Union() is effected in constant time with the Fibonacci Heap, primarily because the "work" of heap maintenance is "put off" until the Extract-Min() operation is needed.
The subject of mergeable heaps is categorized under the topic of disjoint sets; the issue is the maintenance of information in sets that can grow independently but that will be dynamically merged.
Binomial and Fibonacci heaps are examples of such disjoint sets, but with additional useful properties (constraints) that deal with the arrangement of keys in a "heap" ordering.

When an element (binomial tree of order 0) is inserted into a binomial heap which already contains a tree of order 0, the merging of tree pairs occurs until there are no longer two binomial trees of the same order in the heap.
A Fibonacci heap which supports only the mergeable heap operations (Insert, Merge, DeleteMin) is a collection of unordered binomial trees.

The amortization refers to the "distribution" of the computational cost accross the set of Fibonacci Heap operations.
It's pretty strightforward to see that considering amortized running time for the operation on Trivial Heaps is equivalent to worst-case running time (that will become obvious when we explain how we can achieve these time bounds).
As a proof, we'll give an actual construction of the Fibonacci heap, consisting of only this tree.

The only place that I have used linked lists in perl [in code that actually gets used] is internally within the Fibonacci heap module.
The Fibonacci heap gets defined later in the same chapter, and used later in the book to find minimum spanning tree (with Prim's algorithm) and shortest path - these graph algorithms, when used on large graphs, really need the performance of the Fibonacci heap to work well.
I've had enough used feedback to show that the heap module collection does get used bu other people too.
