Recommendations

Christian Ballot (Université de Caen Normandie) comments on [The Specified Three Distance Theorem]: "Beautiful! I like the 3-gap theorem so this is interesting to me."

Don Zagier (Max Planck Institute for Mathematics) comments on [The Continued Fraction Pendulum (open access), Figure 1]: "The nice graph has a clear inductive structure related to the Euclidean algorithm."

Current work

Preliminary project statement: An algorithm of abstract cell division will be described that helps to unterstand why "the golden section has been selected by evolution" - a hypothesis formulated by Richard S. Smith (John Innes Centre, UK).
