Fate of three consecutive orange numbers
This example seems characteristic of the fate of three consecutive orange numbers in a dome:
- n-1 starts with blue-green bridges that increase quickly the values (green line),
- n decreases quickly down to the root m (here m=7) (orange line),
- n+1 starts with yellow bridges that decreases slowly (red line).
The dome informs about the first homogenous partial sequence of each number. What happens next is beyond its control.
