Subject: Eikosany ball series deep hole scales

These are the scales you get around the deep hole, using the Euclidean
metric with 5,7,9 and 11 equal. It's not clear to me that the eikosany
stands out; ball 2 with 18 notes and ball 4 with 24 notes are
permutation epimorphic. (Ball 1 is epimorphic in two different ways,
which is a fun fact we can find because of Manuel's improvements to
Scala, and which is also true of the 1-3-5-7 hexany.)

Here are balls one through six in Scala format.

However, at ball 4 a 385/384 interval appears in the scale; before
that the intervals seem more reasonable.

[Gene]
These are the scales you get around the deep hole, using the Euclidean
metric with 5,7,9 and 11 equal. ...

[Yahya]
This is _very_ interesting indeed.  It will be fun to see how each of 
these scales works as a compositional resource.  In line with my earlier
comments, how sensitive are the resulting scales to the choice of
metric?  For example, what shells and scales arise from using the
following metrics? -
1.	The "city-block" metric d = Sigma_i  (|a_i| ?
2.	The hyper-Euclidean metric d = (Sigma_i a_i^n)^(1/n),
	where n is an integer >2 ?
3.	The LCM metric d = LCM_i (a_i) ?
4.	Your favourite metric here _________?

Notational note: a_i means "a subscript i".  In all other cases, the 
suffix _i means "over all i".

How sensitive they are depends in part on how big the ball is. A
useful non-Euclidean for the 7-limit is the Hahn norm, described here:

Scales which are of Hahn ball type are discussed here:

Gene,

Thanks for all the pointers!

I've just downloaded most of your Theory section as well
to read later.

Regards,
Yahya

In some connections that might be best; for instance, we could make
3 of length log 3, 5 of length log 5 and so forth. One context in
which that is useful is discussed here:

http://66.98.148.43/~xenharmo/top.htm

However, at other times we want to maximize symmetry, and in this
case, we want to see if the eikosany, a symmetrical 11-limit scale,
can be seen as a scale of ball type, and the above metric would not
help us there.
