Message: 7580 Date: Tue, 14 Oct 2003 21:01:49 Subject: Chains of fifths and notation From: Gene Ward Smith Basing notation schemes which encompass successivly higher prime limits on a Pythagorean chain-of-fifth (or fourths, etc) method is a necessity, since we start from the 3-limit. To go to the 5-limit, we need to add a comma of the form 2^a 3^b 5^c where c = +-1. If a monzo [a,b,c] gives rise to a temperament with octave period, then the generator mapping will be +-[0, c, -b], and since c=+-1 once again we are back with 3/2, 4/3 etc as generator--a Pythagorean system. Looking at the 5-limit commas, we find really only five reasonable choices, and so five types of notation systems possible for the higher prime limits as well. 16/15 fourth-third systems 135/128 pelogic systems 81/80 meantone systems 32805/32768 schismic systems 2954312706550833698643/2951479051793528258560 [-69, 45, -1] counterschismic systems To go to 7-limit systems, we want 7-limit commas for which the exponent of 7 is +-1, and so forth. Some 7-limit possibilities are: 36/35, 525/512, 64/63, 875/864, 126/125, 225/224, 5120/5103, 65625/65536, 4375/4374 Aside from 33/32, some 11-limit possibilities include: 77/75, 45/44, 55/54, 56/55, 99/98, 100/99, 176/175, 896/891, 385/384, 441/440, 1375/1372, 6250/6237, 540/539, 5632/5625, 131072/130977, 40283203125/40282095616, 6576668672/6576582375, 781258401/781250000, 13841287201/13841203200 Note that while insuring that the count of p-limit commas depends only on the exponent for p is a nice property, it is hardly essential. I think there are advantages, for instance, in using in place of 81/80, 64/63, and 33/32, the commas 5120/5103 and 385/384; they are related by 64/63 = 81/80 5120/5103 33/32 = 81/80 64/63 385/384 In these terms, my example of 77/75 becomes D double flat, up three 81/80 and a 385/384.

The wedgie for <81/80, 64/63> is [1, 4, -2, 4, -6, -16], so this goes under the "Dominant Seventh" rubric. However, <81/80, 36/35> and <81/80, 5120/5103> are equally D7 systems, giving the same wedgie, and very closely related to using 64/63 to notate. We pass to the 11-limit by adding 33/32; however the same wedgie is obtainable by adding 55/54 or 385/384, so any of the nine systems <81/80, {36/35,64/63,5120/5103}, {33/32,55/54,385/384}> is equally well an 11-limit D7 notation scheme. Another very logical system falling under the general Meantone heading is Septimal Meantone; here to 81/80 we add 126/125, 225/224 or 3136/3125. If now for the 11-limit we add 99/98, 176/175, 441/440, 1375/1372 or 5632/5625, we get 11-limit Meantone; if instead we add 385/384 or 540/549 we get Meanpop systems. George tells us that each of 36/35, 64/63 and 5120/5103 is sagittally symbolized, and so is 55/54 (but not 385/384,) so D7 systems are pretty well covered. So far as Septimal Meantone goes, none of 126/125, 225/224 or 3136/3125 seems to have a symbol, nor do 99/98, 176/174, 441/440, 1375/1372, 5632/5625, 385/384 or 540/539. A symbol for 385/384 and one for either of 126/125 or 225/224 and either of 99/98 or 176/175 would be nice if other 81/80 systems were to be included.

If we insist on having commas of the form 2^a 3^b p^{+-1}, we don't get anything as nice as we have for D7 systems: 11-limit meantone [81/80, 59049/57344, 387420489/369098752] meanpop [81/80, 59049/57344, 17537553/16777216]

Yes, my RMS routine was much wronger, but I've fixed that now. I get 4.217730 cents for meantone and 0.026394 for this 53&306 thing. Graham

included. Some of these will be exactly symbolised in the final system, using accented symbols, it's just that they have not yet been finalised to the satisfaction of both George and I, and at present we're devoting our time to the article explaining the basic (unaccented) system. It's highly probable that each of the following will be the primary meaning of some accented sagittal symbol. 385/384 126/125 225/224 99/98 But the following are very unlikely to be primary symbol interpretations, because there are other more popular (usually less complex) kommas which are very close to them (typically within 0.4 c). In that case you can simply use the symbol for that nearby komma and explain somewhere that that's what you are doing (assuming you don't also need that symbol for its primary purpose, which is fairly unlikely). We refer to this as using a symbol in a secondary role. 176/175 3136/3125 441/440 1375/1372 5632/5625 540/539 Regards, -- Dave Keenan

I'm afraid I don't know. I just specified certain combinations of generators to approximate certain 23-limit ratios (which were themselves commas, but were not being tempered out) and solved numerically for the generators. If you're still interested, maybe there's some other information I could give you if you wanted to work them out. But it may have to wait some time.

Fine.
