This uses [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exterior_algebra|multilinear algebra]] to define a unique reduced wedge product uniquely associated to the abstract regular temperament. The intervals of the temperament, as an abstract group, may be defined by the [[http://mathworld.wolfram.com/InteriorProduct.html|interior product]] of a [[Wedgies and Multivals|wedgie]] for a p-limit temperament with the p-limit monzos. | This uses [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exterior_algebra|multilinear algebra]] to define a unique reduced wedge product uniquely associated to the abstract regular temperament.

For example, using "v" to represent the interior product, we have mir = <<6 -7 -2 -25 -20 15|| for the wedgie of 7-limit miracle. Then the interior product mir v |1 0 0 0> is <0 -6 7 2|, with 15/14 we get mir v |-1 1 1 -1> is <1 1 3 3|, and with 16/15 we get mir v |4 -1 -1 0> is also <1 1 3 3|. | For example, using "v" to represent the interior product, we have mir = <<6 -7 -2 -25 -20 15|| for the wedgie of 7-limit miracle.

<ul><li><strong><a class="wiki_link" href="/Normal%20lists">Normal val lists</a></strong></li></ul>Given a list of vals, we may <a class="wiki_link" href="/Saturation">saturate</a> it and reduce it using the <a class="wiki_link" href="/Normal%20lists">Hermite normal form</a> to a normal val list, which canonically represents the abstract temperament. Applying the vals successively (an operation we may regard as a matrix multiplication if we like) to a rational interval gives an element in abelian group representing the notes of the temperament. For example, the normal val list for 7-limit miracle is [&lt;1 1 3 3|, &lt;0 6 -7 -2|] and applying this to the monzo for either 16/15 or 15/14 leads to [0 1]. <br /> | <ul><li><strong><a class="wiki_link" href="/Normal%20lists">Normal val lists</a></strong></li></ul>Given a list of vals, we may <a class="wiki_link" href="/Saturation">saturate</a> it and reduce it using the <a class="wiki_link" href="/Normal%20lists">Hermite normal form</a> to a normal val list, which canonically represents the abstract temperament.
