: To understand the section about finding the epimorph val, do cofactor expansion on the top row, then realize that the monzos when stripped of (for example) their first coordinate span ALL the intervals which are octave-equivalent to the origin. In the example given, they span 1/22 of all the intervals since the determinant of those three monzos is 22, so 1/22 of all intervals must be octave-equivalent to the origin; thus our rank-1 temperament must map 2/1 to 22 steps. --[[User:Hkm|hkm]] ([[User talk:Hkm|talk]]) 17:08, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

: This page is just bad, it should be rewritten from the ground up. In the meantime, the article on wikipedia is much better. – [[User:Sintel|Sintel🎏]] ([[User_talk:Sintel|talk]]) 18:50, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

:: What do you think of moving the mathematics section to a separate article called ''Mathematical theory of Fokker blocks'', similar to the ''Mathematical theory of regular temperaments'' article, so that we can start over?
