On triangular paperfolding patterns

arXiv:1807.05627 · doi:10.1016/j.ejc.2020.103167

Abstract

We introduce patterns on a triangular grid generated by paperfolding operations. We show that in case these patterns are defined using a periodic sequence of foldings, they can also be generated using substitution rules and compute eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the corresponding matrices. We also prove that densities of all basic triangles are equal in these patterns.
