Overlap Patterns Gallery
Overlap pattern tables n = 1 - 10, as seen at the top of any table n > 20: The first twelve overlap pattern tables, side by side: n = 11 - 16. The top of each table n contains the first floor((n-1)/2) tables. The bottom half of each table, where new patterns begin to take shape, is distinguished by its lack of complete horizontal lines (except for the base.) n = 17 - 20. The length of each table increases exponentially with n (proof forthcoming.) As n increases, more detail can be seen. The following are small slices of tables for various values of n: At n = 900: What emerges as n continues to grow, and is there a limit to its complexity?
