My focus for the past few years has been on the intersection of non-halting mathematics and computer science.
The questions I've asked with prolonged contemplation include:
-
How can we better understand and leverage recursive patterns?
-
What's the difference between recursion and iteration?

A Pythagorean triple example of a non-halting tiling system:
-
a
( 2 / 3 )^n
scale symmetry log function; -
a
12-by-18
parent rectangle; and -
a repeating rectangle with an
n = 0
of12-by-10
.
