== Context ==


For each pair of superparticular ratios <math>{s1}/{s2}</math>​ and <math>{s2}/{s3}</math>, there exists a ratio <math>{a}/{b}</math> such that <math>{s1}/{s2}</math>​ and <math>{s2}/{s3}</math>​ are <math>{a}/{b}</math> complementary; it is observed that <math>a−b=1</math> or <math>a−b=2</math>.
Read this first: [[Equal-step_tuning#Alpha-beta-gamma_family_of_equal_divisions]]
In other words, for each ratio <math>a/b</math> where <math>a−b=1</math> or <math>a−b=2</math>, there exists a pair of superparticular ratios <math>{s1}/{s2}</math>​ and <math>{s2}/{s3}</math> that are <math>{a}/{b}</math> complementary.


Bellow is a table that show for equal divisions of <math>a/b</math> the cent error in the mapping of superparticular ratios <math>{s1}/{s2}</math>​ and <math>{s2}/{s3}</math> that are <math>a/b</math> complementary.
== The Alpha-Beta-Gamma family ==


We can observe a converging sequence and pattern for low errors: 5, 7, 12; then 7, 9, 16; then 9, 11, 20; then 11, 13, 24; then 13, 15, 28; then 15, 17, 32; then 17, 19, 36; then 19, 21, 40; then 21, 23, 44; etc. --
{{todo|Table|inline=1|comment=Explain the table.}}
{{todo|Pattern|inline=1|comment=Clarify the observed pattern and create a descriptive name for it, such as the "Alpha-Beta-Gamma pattern" or the "Alpha-Beta-Gamma class" when referring to the group of scales. Assign distinct names to each scale within this class. For instance, 5edo might be called "2/1 Alpha", 7edo could be "2/1 Beta", and 12edo could be "2/1 Gamma". Additionally, compute the Dave Benson optimization for each scale as an alternative tuning. Note: 23edo with stretched octave is "7/5 Alpha".
Consider this second version for naming: "Alpha 2/1, Beta 2/1, Gamma 2/1, Alpha 7/5." Consistency and Clarity: The second version ("Alpha 2/1, Beta 2/1, Gamma 2/1, Alpha 7/5") places the descriptive name ("Alpha," "Beta," "Gamma") before the ratio. This makes it clear that "Alpha," "Beta," "Gamma," and so on are categories or types, while "2/1" and "7/5" are specific tunings or ratios within those categories. This ordering helps maintain a logical structure that is easier to follow.}}

== Coincidence? ==


As a coincidence (?), all Alpha scales are (s1 + s2)ED(a / b), all Beta scales are (s2 + s3)ED(a / b), and all Gamma scales are (s1 + s2 + s2 + s3)ED(a / b).
== The converging Alpha-Beta-Gamma sequence ==
 
As a fact, for each <math>n\ge 2</math>, equal divisions of <math>R_n=\dfrac{n+1}{n-1}</math> where low errors appear for <math>S_n=\dfrac{n+1}{n}</math> and <math>B_n=\dfrac{n}{n-1}</math> forms a converging sequence and pattern, with the happy equal divisions of <math>R_n</math> being:
* '''Alpha:''' <math>k_\alpha=2n-1</math>
* '''Beta:''' <math>k_\beta=2n+1</math>
* '''Gamma:''' <math>k_\gamma=4n=k_\alpha+k_\beta</math>
 
In this sequence, the errors are lower and lower.
 
{{todo|Why this pattern|inline=1|comment=Explain why divisions of ratios where low errors appear for successive superparticular complementary pair make this pattern appears.}}
