The alternating grid system periodicity and continued-fraction tiling conjecture
The alternating grid system periodicity and continued-fraction tiling conjecture
Let denote the positive real numbers, and let be the alternating grid system. Let be the square of whose bottom-left vertex is the origin. Alternating grid system conjecture. For every , almost every point of is periodic. Inside there is a sequence of periodic islands, alternately sharing edges with the two coordinate axes, which encodes the continued fraction expansion of . This conjecture concerns the proposed relationship between the periodic-island structure and continued fractions; the supplied text gives motivating examples but no resolution.
