In every generation there are lattice vectors connecting congruent points in the lattice. Those with less than (or exactly) light velocity are listed in Table 1.1, for the first sixteen generations. Note that such combinations as two in three generations and four in six generations refer to the same velocity, but not necessarily the same gliders. Sometimes additional time is required to develop a cycle fully. Of course any gliders obeying m in n will also obey km in kn. Gliders can appear for the first time when k = 2 which were absent for k = 1; it is more usual that all the old ones remain and either new ones arise, or new interconnections develop between the old ones. And, of course, the value of k can sometimes make no difference, and no gliders may exist at a velocity which otherwise seems reasonable. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Next: T4 mosaic Up: The simplest mosaics according Previous: T3 mosaic Example user SuSE Linux 6.2 2000-05-19 |
