Larger in terms of their sizes in cents? I don't see why that is necessarily limited on any list. I had no trouble finding myriad ridiculously large 'commas' in the 5-limit case I posted extensively on.

It's true that there are a limited number of small ETs. But there aren't a limited number of large, garbage ET breeds (vals).

Using ridiculously large commas, for example, or using garbage ET breeds (vals). I do realize that each of the items in your kitchen sink was 'limited' in the ways you seem to be claiming 'any' list would be (maybe you actually mean 'any reasonable' and not 'any'?), but I was still surprised as to the extremely small number of large-error temperaments in your list of 32201 -- and less so, by the vast that the vast majority of these had extremely large complexity. Thanks again for doing this work, Paul

Using garbage commas or garbage vals will definately create garbage results, but why would anyone want garbage results? If you simply want all possibilities, those can be obtained by requiring the six integers of the wedgie to be in appropriate reduced form and satify a single algebraic conditions (wedgies are all rational points on a projective variety in mathspeak.)

No one would. That's why we're calling them "garbage". It just strikes me that near the logarithmic error and complexity of 7-limit blackwood, we hit the boundary of your search.

I would have thought the six integers would need to have a GCD of 1, and with that restriction alone you'd get two and only two occurrences of each temperament. But I take it it's more complicated than that?

Subject: Circle for Carl

From: Paul Erlich

To refresh the memory, here's the plot of 7-limit "linear 
temperaments" in blue, with the moat (in red) that Dave and I favored:

Yahoo groups: /tuning_files/files/Erlich/7lin2... * [with cont.] 

That used linear scaling on the axes; this version of the same plot 
used log scaling on both axes:

Yahoo groups: /tuning_files/files/Erlich/7lin2... * [with cont.] 
if 

The numbers labeling the points refer to this list:

Yahoo groups: /tuning-math/message/9317 * [with cont.] 

Carl expressed interest in using circular moats centered around the 
origin. This same moat becomes a circle around the origin if cube-
root scaling is used on both of the axes:

Yahoo groups: /tuning-math/files/Paul/carl.gif * [with cont.] 

I didn't label the points but it should be clear which point is which 
from comparison with the plots above.

Ennealimmal is the point on the far lower right.

This last plot has a lot more points, since it drew from Gene's fresh 
de-culling of his list of 32201, which had been culled to 126 when 
the earlier plots were made. In fact, this post is partially an 
excuse to immediately present something resulting from the de-
cullation. Thanks again, Gene.

I don't want this to contribute to or resume the argument about which 
scaling of the axes is appropriate, I just thought it might interest 
Carl, depending on what his predilection for circles was based on. 
I'd like to hear Carl's thoughts.

You can normalize by making the GCD 1, and then normalizing the sign, for instance by making the first nonzero coefficient positive. Another approach is simply to take any vector of six rational numbers equivalent to any other under multiplication by a nonzero scalar; this makes the five-dimensional projective space over the rationals. Either way, that is still not enough conditions, if <<x1 x2 x3 x4 x5 x6|| is our wedgie, we also must have that x1x6 - x2x5 + x3x4 = 0 This defines a 4D quadric in 5D (real or complex) projective space; it has an infinity of rational points, each of which corresponds to a wedgie. There's some math due to Klein connected to all of this.

Thanks, Gene. I finally got this into Matlab using 'importdata' and then for j=1:32201; s(j,:)=str2num(cell2mat(sy(j))); end I graphed it, and I see the same constellations as before, but there's "stuff" in the region where there is nothing. This is what I wanted. Thanks. I noticed that the great majority of the temperaments in the list had extremely high complexity, but virtually none -- a tiny, tiny number - - of them had very high error. Comments welcome. -Paul

So the space of 7-limit "linear" temperaments is essentially only 4- dimensional? I was thinking 6-dimensional but then 1 dimension is redundant because of torsion considerations. So in musical terms, what consideration brings us down another dimension?

One would not expect to get an infinite number of high-error temperament candidates, so why is this a surprise?

Hoping recorded? You mean hopefully recorded? I've just re-read the entire contents of this list from the first 2+ months of this year, so I'm familiar with what you said. I was left with a big question mark as to your fundamentals, and was hoping that bouncing this off you would help clarify.

Of course. Once you write music in all of them, then what? ;)

I would expect that, at high levels of complexity, one would see a large number of high-error temperament candidates.

Correct; they correspond to what a number theorist or algebraic geometer would call the "Q-rational points" on the "Klein quadric", which is the x1x6-x2x5+x3x4 thingie; Q being the rational numbers. So we have a 4D quadric and an infinity of rational points on it, in 1-1 correspondence to 7-limit linear temperaments in some sense. I say in some sense because they can be arbitarily crappy. I was thinking 6-dimensional but then 1 dimension is

In musical terms, you ask? That bears thinking about. The main thing is anything else doesn't give you an actual temperament.

Why? The number of larger commas is limited on any list, the number of small ets, the same. What method is going to produce for you a large number of high-error garbage temperaments? On the other hand, high complexity garbage temperaments I would expect, a priori, out the wazoo. ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Yahoo!

Here's an on-line math book ("Projective and Polar Spaces", by Peter Cameron, revised on-line edition) with some relevant information: Projective and Polar Spaces * [with cont.] (Wayb.) Chapter eight is "The Klein quadric and triality", which discusses the Klein quadric (obviously) and the Klein correspondence. Chapter ten is "Exterior powers and Clifford algebras" which might be another place to find out about these.

From: Paul Erlich

On <<0, 0, 12, 0, 19, 28]] . . .

When I said 'we discussed this years ago', it turns out I had the 
wrong tuning.

I was thinking of a tuning where 5120/5103 vanished, but 81/80 didn't.

<<0, 0, 12, 0, 19, 28]], on the other hand, seems to be functionally 
the same as Jon Catler's '12-tone plus' tuning -- except that the 
offset is cleverly an eighthtone instead of a sixthtone, making for 
better 7:5s . . . right?

So what's the wedgie, TOP primes, period, and generator for the 
tuning where 531441/524288 and 5120/5103 vanish?

Waage is of course a *third* member of this 'family'.
