=== Definition: constant structure (CS) ===
Given a periodic scale ''S'', let <math>C_k</math> be the set of ''k''-steps of ''S''. Then ''S'' is ''constant structure'' (CS) if for any <math>i, j \in \mathbb{Z}</math> we have <math>C_i \cap C_j = \varnothing.</math>
=== If the steps of a CS scale are linearly independent, then the scale is epimorphic ===
=== If the steps of a CS scale are linearly independent, then the scale is epimorphic ===
Theorem: Suppose ''S'' is a 2/1-equivalent increasing constant structure JI scale of length ''n''. Let <math>C_1</math> be the set of 1-steps of ''S'', and suppose that <math>C_1</math> is a ''basis'' for the JI group ''A'' generated by it. Then there exists an epimorphic val <math> v: A \to \mathbb{Z}</math> which is a val of ''n''-edo (and a similar statement holds for other equaves).
