For semiparticulars, we also want to show that S''k''/S(''k'' + 2) is superparticular for all but the case of S(4''n'' - 1)/S(4''n'' + 1) which is odd-particular: | |||
<math> | |||
\begin {align} | |||
{\rm S}k/{\rm S}(k + 2) &= \frac {k + 3}{k - 1} \cdot \frac{k^2}{(k + 2)^2} \\ | |||
&= \frac {k^3 + 3k^2}{(k - 1)(k^2 + 4k + 4)} \\ | |||
&= \frac {k^3 + 3k^2}{k^3 + 4k^2 + 4k - k^2 - 4k - 4} \\ | |||

This result will be useful, so we will refer to it as '''[Eq. 1]''': S''k''/S(''k'' + 2) = (k<sup>3</sup> + 3k<sup>2</sup>)/(k<sup>3</sup> + 3k<sup>2</sup> - 4) | |||
: = k<sup>2</sup>/ | : Note that when ''k'' = 2''n'' in [Eq. 1], everything in the numerator and denominator is divisible by 4 because the only instances of ''k'' have it raised to a power of 2 or greater meaning there will be a factor of (2''n'')<sup>2</sup> = 4''n''<sup>2</sup>, therefore S''k''/S(''k'' + 2) is superparticular when ''k'' is even. | ||
: = | : When ''k'' = 4''n'' + 1 in [Eq. 1], we have to do some extra work to show the result is superparticular: | ||
: | : (4''n'' + 1)<sup>3</sup> = (4''n'')<sup>3</sup> + 3·(4''n'')<sup>2</sup> + 3·4''n'' + 1 is of the form 4''m'' + 1. | ||
: (4''n'' + 1)<sup>2</sup> = (4''n'')<sup>2</sup> + 2·4''n'' + 1 is also of the form 4m+1. | |||
: Therefore we can replace their occurrences in [Eq. 1] with 4''m'' + 1 and 4''a'' + 1 respectively, without having to worry about what ''m'' and ''a'' are (as we only need to know that ''m'' and ''a'' are positive integers). Therefore to show S(4''n'' + 1)/S(4''n'' + 3) is superparticular, we set k = 4''n'' + 1 in [Eq. 1] and then do the replacements and simplify to a superparticular: | |||
: = ( | : <math> | ||
\begin {align} | |||
{\rm S}(4n + 1)/{\rm S}(4n + 3) &= \frac {(4n + 1)^3 + 3(4n + 1)^2}{(4n + 1)^3 + 3(4n + 1)^2 - 4} \\ | |||
&= \frac {(4m + 1) + 3(4a + 1)}{(4m + 1) + 3(4a + 1) - 4} \\ | |||
&= \frac {4m + 4(3a) + 4}{4m + 4(3a)} \\ | |||
&= \frac {m + 3a + 1}{m + 3a} | |||
\end {align} | |||
</math> | |||
: | : Then for the final case we want to show that S(4''n'' - 1)/S(4''n'' + 1) is odd-particular by setting k = 4''n'' - 1 in [Eq. 1]: | ||
: | : S(4''n'' - 1)/S(4''n'' + 1) = ( (4''n'' - 1)<sup>3</sup> + 3(4''n'' - 1)<sup>2</sup> )/( (4''n'' - 1)<sup>3</sup> + 3(4''n'' - 1)<sup>2</sup> - 4 ) | ||
: As before we make replacements: | : As before we make replacements: | ||
: ( | : (4''n'' - 1)<sup>3</sup> = (4''n'')<sup>3</sup> - 3·(4''n'')<sup>2</sup> + 3·4''n'' - 1 is of the form 4''m'' - 1 so will be replaced with such. | ||
: ( | : (4''n'' + 1)<sup>2</sup> = (4''n'')<sup>2</sup> - 2·4''n'' + 1 is of the form 4''a'' + 1 so will be replaced with such. | ||
: Therefore: | : Therefore: | ||
: S(4n-1)/S(4n+1) = ( | : <math> | ||
\begin {align} | |||
{\rm S}(4n - 1)/{\rm S}(4n + 1) &= \frac {(4n - 1)^3 + 3(4n - 1)^2}{(4n - 1)^3 + 3(4n - 1)^2 - 4} \\ | |||
&= \frac {(4m - 1) + 3(4a + 1)}{(4m - 1) + 3(4a + 1) - 4} \\ | |||
&= \frac {4m + 4(3a) + 2}{4m + 4(3a) - 2} \\ | |||
&= \frac {2m + 2(3a) + 1}{2m + 2(3a) - 1} | |||

In conclusion: | In conclusion: S''k''/S(''k'' + 2) is superparticular for k ≠ 3 (mod 4) and is odd-particular when k = 3 (mod 4). | ||
