'''1729/1728''', known as the '''ramanujanisma''', is a [[19-limit]] (more accurately, 2.3.7.13.19 [[subgroup]]) [[superparticular]] interval and an [[unnoticeable comma]] that is remarkably close to one cent in size. It forms the difference between the [[octave]] and a stack of [[7/6]], [[13/12]] and [[19/12]], and less likely, the difference between [[19/18]] and [[96/91]]. | '''1729/1728''', known as the '''ramanujanisma''', is a [[19-limit]] (more accurately, 2.3.7.13.19 [[subgroup]]) [[superparticular]] interval and an [[unnoticeable comma]] that is remarkably close to one cent in size.

Both the numerator and denominator of this interval are famous in mathematics. [[Wikipedia: 1728 (number)|1728]], being 12 to the 3rd power, is also known as mass. [[Wikipedia:1729 (number)|1729]] is known for being Ramanujan's number and the first number that can be expressed as the sum of two cubes in two different ways (1729 = 1<sup>3</sup> + 12<sup>3</sup> = 9<sup>3</sup> + 10<sup>3</sup>). | Both the numerator and denominator of this interval are famous in mathematics.

Tempering out this comma in the 19-limit leads to the rank-7 '''ramanujanismic temperament''', or in the 2.3.7.13.19 subgroup, the rank-4 '''ramanujanic temperament'''. In either case it enables the [[ramanujanismic chords]], the [[essentially tempered chord]]s in the 19- or 21-odd-limit. | Tempering out this comma in the 19-limit leads to the rank-7 '''ramanujanismic temperament''', or in the 2.3.7.13.19 subgroup, the rank-4 '''ramanujanic temperament'''. In either case it enables the [[ramanujanismic chords]], the [[essentially tempered chord]]s in the 19- or 21-odd-limit. The basic equivalence related to all these chords can be expressed as (7/6)(13/12)(19/12)~2/1, similar to (7/5)(11/10)(13/10)~2/1 as is enabled by the [[1001/1000|sinbadma (1001/1000)]]. Futhermore, [[8/7]] is short of a stack consisting of 19/18 and 13/12, [[16/13]] short of a stack consisting of 19/18 and 7/6, and [[32/19]] short of a stack consisting of 7/6 and 13/9, all by the ramanujanisma, so that any accurate tuning of the 2.3.13.19, 2.3.7.19, or 2.3.7.13 subgroup will naturally have an accurate approximation to [[7/1|7]], [[13/1|13]], or [[19/1|19]], respectively. | ||
