Certain Properties of Pythagorean Triangles involving the interior diameter, and the exterior diameters

Abstract

There are four characteristic circles for each triangle on a plane. All for are tangential to the three straight lines containing the triangles' three sides. Three are exterior circles, the fourth is the in-circle. When the triangle is Pythagorean, the four diameters are integers. Consider a Pythagorean triangle with the property that one leglength is a perfect(or integer)square, and with one of the four diameters also a integer square.Of the eight resulting combinations, we prove that only six are possible or can occur. We then completely parametrically describe the six families; each corresponding to one of the six combinations.

A Theory of Scales and Orbit Covers

This paper develops a formal theory of musical scales and their harmonic coverings and introduces orbit covers: coverings obtained by translating a fixed subset across a scale via a group action. Orbit covers generalize familiar constructions, such as the covering of the diatonic scale by tertian triads, and are motivated by the search for a generalized harmonic framework extending common-practice tonality. We model modes as group structures associated with pitch-class sets and scales as torsors, introducing scale covers and, in particular, orbit covers. To each orbit cover we associate a nerve complex encoding its intersection structure and associated topological invariants. We classify triadic orbit covers of heptatonic scales up to affine symmetry and nerve isomorphism. These results support a broader theory of harmonic organization with analytical and compositional applications.
