Section XIV - Quasi Octo-Symmetry within the [ 24 Base Structural Patterns ]

Summary for the Section :

• In this Section , we shall look at [ Quasi Octo-Symmetry ] found within the [ 24 Base Structural Patterns ] .

  And we shall attempt to split the [ 24 QSM-Patterns --- ALPHA Series ] into :

  • 3 x [ sets of 8-elements Quasi Octo-Symmetric Patterns ] .

Recalling the [ 24 Base Structural Patterns ] :

• Let us now bring-in again the [ 24 Base Structural Patterns ] and also the [ 24 QSM-Patterns --- ALPHA Series ] ,
  • for re-familiarization purposes :

  

• And we simply note here that :
  • [ Pattern A ] on the diagram of-the-right above is the same as the pattern [ Pattern AARON ] :

    

  And we shall be using [ Patter AARON ] and [ Pattern A ] interchangeably in the remainder of this Section .

Setting up the [ 8 Master Structural Patterns ] for [ Quasi Octo-Symmetry ] :

• Let us now specifically select the following 8 of the [ 24 Base Structural Patterns ] as our [ 8 Master Structural Patterns ] :
  • the Structural Pattern in { Row 1 , Column 1 } ,
  • the Structural Pattern in { Row 2 , Column 3 } ,
  • the Structural Pattern in { Row 3 , Column 4 } ,
  • the Structural Pattern in { Row 4 , Column 2 } ,
  • the Structural Pattern in { Row 3 , Column 1 } ,
  • the Structural Pattern in { Row 2 , Column 5 } ,
  • the Structural Pattern in { Row 1 , Column 4 } ,
  • the Structural Pattern in { Row 4 , Column 6 } .

  

  And the [ 8 Master Structural Patterns ] for our [ Quasi Octo-Symmetry ] Expansion-Mapping procedure is then :

Selecting the [ Anchor Pattern ] for our Expansion-Mapping Procedure :

• Let us now select one of the [ 8 Master Structural Patterns ] as the [ Anchor Pattern ] :
  • and we shall select the [ Pattern on-the-top-left ] here , at-this-first-instance .

Expansion-Mapping using [ Pattern AARON ] as the [ Core Pattern ] :

• Let us now plug-in [ Pattern AARON ] / [ Pattern A ] as the [ Core Pattern ] for our Expansion-Mapping procedure :

  

  And the [ Colors-to-Numbers Assignment Scheme ] here , based on the above , is then :

  Color #1	Color #2	Color #3	Color #4	Color #5	Color #6	Color #7	Color #8
  ***********	***********	***********	***********	***********	***********	***********	***********
  RED	CYAN	PURPLE	MAGENTA	GREEN	YELLOW	ORANGE	BLUE

• We then have this as a result :

  

  And the 8 patterns in the diagram on-the-right above are then :

  • 1st-row from-left-to-right : [ Pattern A ] , [ Pattern J ] , [ Pattern R ] and [ Pattern V ] ;

  • 2nd-row from-left-to-right : [ Pattern N ] , [ Pattern L ] , [ Pattern D ] and [ Pattern Z ] ; respectively .

Confirming [ Quasi Octo-Symmetry ] :

• Let us now double-check , to make sure that the [ 8 Master Structural Patterns ] do yield [ Quasi Octo-Symmetric Patterns ] .

  First , let us plug-in [ Pattern A ] as the [ Core Pattern ] to arrive at this :

  

  Secondly , let us plug-in [ Pattern J ] as the [ Core Pattern ] to arrive at this :

  

  Thirdly , let us plug-in [ Pattern R ] as the [ Core Pattern ] to arrive at this :

  

  Fourthly , let us plug-in [ Pattern V ] as the [ Core Pattern ] to arrive at this :

  

  Fifthly , let us plug-in [ Pattern N ] as the [ Core Pattern ] to arrive at this :

  

  Sixthly , let us plug-in [ Pattern L ] as the [ Core Pattern ] to arrive at this :

  

  Seventhly , let us plug-in [ Pattern D ] as the [ Core Pattern ] to arrive at this :

  

  Eighth-and-finally , let us plug-in [ Pattern Z ] as the [ Core Pattern ] to arrive at this :

  

• And from these results , we can now conclude that :
  • [ Pattern A ] , [ Pattern J ] , [ Pattern R ] , [ Pattern V ] , [ Pattern N ] , [ Pattern L ] , [ Pattern D ] and [ Pattern Z ]
    do form a [ Quasi Octo-Symmetric Set ] .

  • the [ 8 Master Structural Patterns ] we have above is indeed a [ set of quasi octo-symmetric Structural Patterns ] .

Breaking-down the [ 24 QSM-Patterns ] into 3 sets of [ 8-elements Quasi Octo-Symmetric Sets ] :

• Let us now plug-in [ Patterns A / B / C ] as the [ Core Pattern ] ,
  • to see what we might come up with .

  Let us now plug-in [ Pattern A ] as the [ Core Pattern ] and do the Expansion-Mapping Procedure :

  

  Let us now plug-in [ Pattern B ] as the [ Core Pattern ] and do the Expansion-Mapping Procedure :

  

  Let us now plug-in [ Pattern K ] as the [ Core Pattern ] and do the Expansion-Mapping Procedure :

  

• And we see here that :
  • we were able to separate the [ 24 QSM-Patterns ] into 3 sets of [ Quasi Octo-Symmetric Sets ] , with 8 elements in each set .

Locating the 3 sets within the [ 24 QSM-Patterns ] framework :

• Let us now take a quick look at the location of each [ set of 8 elements ] within the [ 24 QSM-Patterns ] framework :
