COMMENTS

A matrix self-similar process as applied to the array {1,3,7,9} modulo 10.

This produces a pseudorational sequence that has the property of also being self-similar. This is actually a general kind of sequence for an integer array of any length. The magic square properties of the array used make the result special and separable into binary four arrays. As a sum of negative powers of ten this also produces a pseudorational type number.

These arrays are related to Hadamard-Sylvester matrices and it was the behavior of majoc squares in matrix self-similarity that actually gave me the idea. Herbert Franke has done some work on these kind of arrays as well which was published in TFTN in 1998.
