Fractal SequenceGiven an Infinitive Sequence with associated array , then is said to be a fractal sequence - 1. If
, then there exists such that , - 2. If
, then, for every , there is exactly one such that . (As and range through , the array , called the associative array of , ranges through all of .)An example of a fractal sequence is 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1, 3, ....
If is a fractal sequence, then the associated array is an Interspersion. If is a fractal sequence, thenthe Upper-Trimmed Subsequence is given by , and the Lower-Trimmed Subsequence is anotherfractal sequence. The Signature of an Irrational Number is a fractal sequence.
