  "text": "XII. On the K-partitions of the R-gon and R-ace.\n\nBy the Rev. Thomas P. Kirkman, A.M., F.R.S., Rector of Croft with Southworth.\n\nCommunicated by Arthur Cayley, Esq., F.R.S.\n\nReceived November 13,—Read December 11, 1856.\n\nI. By the k-partitions of an r-gon, I mean the number of ways in which it can be divided by \\(k-1\\) diagonals, of which none crosses another; two ways being different only when no cyclical permutation or reversion of the numbers \\(1\\ 2\\ 3\\ldots r\\) at the angles can make them alike: and by the k-partitions of an r-ace (a pencil of \\(r\\) rays in space or a plane), I mean the number of ways in which it can be divided into \\(k\\) smaller pencils, by the introduction of \\(k-1\\) connecting lines, of which none enclose a space; two ways being different only when by no cyclical permutation or reversion of the numbers \\(1\\ 2\\ 3\\ldots r\\) in the angular spaces of the r-ace they can be made identical. The polygon here considered is the section of a pyramid, and its discussion includes that of the polyace.\n\nThe enumeration of the partitions of the polygon and polyace is indispensable in the theory of the polyedra. In a memoir “On the x-edra which have an \\((x-1)\\)-gonal base, and all their Summits Triedral,” in the Transactions of the Royal Society, 1856, page 399, I have investigated the \\((r-2)\\)-partitions of the r-ace, or the r-gon; for the number of x-edra there determined is exactly that of these \\((r-2)\\)-partitions. What follows may be considered as a completion of the investigation in that memoir begun; yet not properly a continuation, inasmuch as the results there obtained are here deduced by a different and more general method.\n\nII. A partition of an r-gon is reversible or irreversible: reversible, when it is symmetrical about a diameter or bisector of the figure, so that the configuration is unaltered by a semirevolution about that line, which is called an axis of reversion, of which axes there may be one or many; and irreversible, when it is reversible about no axis. An irreversible is about no axis its own reflexion.\n\nAn axis of reversion is always a bisector of the r-gon, and is agonal, monogonal, or diagonal, according as it passes through no angle, one angle only, or two angles of the r-gon; and the polygon is said to be about that axis, agonally, monogonally, or diagonally reversible.\n\nA diagonal axis may be drawn or undrawn; a monogonal or agonal axis is always undrawn.\n\nIII. A partition is said to be m-ly reversible when it has \\(m\\) axes of reversion. The simple \\(2n\\)-gon \\((k=1)\\) is \\(2n\\)-ly reversible, having \\(n\\) agonal and \\(n\\) diagonal axes; and its sides may be so loaded with polygons, that this number of axes shall be either retained or diminished. The simple \\((2n+1)\\)-gon has \\(2n+1\\) monogonal axes, on which an r-gon\nmay be built to have the same or a smaller number. To help our conceptions, we may always suppose our $r$-gon regularly inscribed in a circle; but it is evident that the sympyty of two identically-partitioned $r$-gons in no wise depends on such symmetry, but may remain after any distortion of either $r$-gon which does not change the angles on any diagonal. So that, if we wish to build an $r'$-gon on an inscribed $r$-gon, we need not fear exceeding the limits of the circle by our additions, while we may suppose these all contained within it.\n\nA partition is said to be $m$-ly irreversible, when it has an irreversible sequence of configuration $m$ times repeated in the circuit of the $r$-gon. This sequence will occupy $\\frac{r}{m}$ angles; and, from whatever angle we begin to read, we shall see a sequence of $\\frac{r}{m}$ sides irreversible, such that through the mid-point of it no axis of reversion can be drawn.\n\nObs. 1. Hence a $2m$-ly irreversible has an irreversible sequence, simple if $m=1$, and $m$-ple if $m>1$, occupying half the circuit of the $r$-gon; but a $(2m+1)$-ly irreversible has no repeated sequence occupying half its circuit.\n\nIV. Theorem A. Every reversible $(1+k)$-partition of an $r$-gon has two reversible sequences of configuration which are bisected by alternate and equidistant axes of reversion, and has not more than two, whatever be the number of these axes.\n\nFor, first, let there be only one axis of reversion in the $r$-gon: there must be two aspects of configuration observable from opposite ends of that axis, otherwise the figure would be reversible about a perpendicular to that axis, i.e. there would be two axes, contrary to hypothesis.\n\nSecondly, let there be more axes of reversion than one; any axis $a$ bisects an aspect $A$, because the figure is unchanged by a semirevolution about that axis; and the axis $b$ next in order to $a$ along the circumference bisects an aspect $B$. This $B$ is different from $A$; for if not, the series of configurations read from $a$ to $b$ will be that read from $b$ to $a$, and there will be either a vertex or a side centrally placed between $a$ and $b$, having on both sides the same aspect, or an axis of reversion can be drawn between $a$ and $b$; but $b$ is the next in order to $a$, which is absurd; therefore $B$ is not $A$. Now $b$ bisecting the aspect $B$ must have the axial termination $a$ at the same distance on either side of it, and for the same reasons $a$ must have the axial termination $b$ at the same distance on either side of it; so that the terminations of the axes must recur at equal distances in the order $..abaaba...$ bisecting the aspects $..ABAAB..$. And this series of aspects has as many terms as there are axial terminations, viz. $4m$ terms, if the number of axes is even, and $4m+2$ if it be odd. Wherefore no aspect different from $A$ and $B$ can be bisected by any axis, and $A$ and $B$, different reversible aspects or sequences, are bisected by alternate equidistant axes. Q. E. D.\n\nWe may call $A$ and $B$ the two axial configurations.\n\nV. Obs. 2. A reversible partition of the $r$-gon having more than one axis of reversion, has both reversible and irreversible sequences repeated in the circuit of the $r$-gon, which occupy an interval equal to that between alternate axes; those being reversible sequences\nwhich begin and end with a side or angle carrying an axial termination, and those being irreversible which begin and end at any other side or angle.\n\nObs. 3. But a singly reversible partition has no sequence repeated in the circuit of the $r$-gon; for if it had a repeated sequence reversible as read from no point, the $r$-gon would not be reversible; and if it had a reversible sequence repeated in the circuit of the $r$-gon, it would not be singly reversible.\n\nObs. 4. A $2m$-ly reversible $r$-gon, if $r > 2m$, has beginning at any angle of the $r$-gon which is not the termination of an axis, an irreversible sequence, simple, if $m = 1$, and $m$-ple, if $m > 1$, occupying half the circuit of the $r$-gon, and repeated in the other half.\n\nVI. Theorem B. When the number of axes of reversion is odd in any partitioned $r$-gon, none is perpendicular to another; and when that number is even, every one is perpendicular to some other.\n\nFor when the number is odd, there is on each side of any one $a$ an equal number of terminations of other axes, all equidistant from $a$ and from each other. And when that number is even, there is an odd number there of such terminations. Whence the truth of the proposition is evident.\n\nVII. Theorem C. When the axes of reversion are odd in any partitioned $r$-gon, each one bisects both axial configurations; and when they are even in number, each bisects but one, read on it alike at either end, and half the axes carry one, and half the other, axial configuration.\n\nThis is very evident from what is proved in Theorem A, that the axial configurations present themselves alternately upon the axes in order.\n\nCor. 1. If there be both agonial and diagonal axes, there is an equal number of each kind; and, as this number is even or odd, so is each axis perpendicular to one of its own or of the other kind.\n\nObs. 5. A $(2m+1)$-ly reversible partition never has an irreversible sequence occupying half the circuit of the $r$-gon and repeated in the other half; for this would require that every axis of reversion should carry the same configuration at both ends, which are points in those two sequences.\n\nVIII. Theorem D. If a diagonal be perpendicular to an axis of reversion in any $h$-ly reversible $r$-gon, it is one of a system of not fewer than $h$ diagonals symmetrically placed about the centre. And all diagonals not perpendicular to that axis form pairs making each an angle bisected by that axis, or that produced.\n\nFor if $h$ be odd, every axis carries the same perpendicular; and if $h$ be even, at least $\\frac{1}{2}h$ axes carry that perpendicular on opposite sides of the centre; and these axes are equidistant from each other: whence the first part of the theorem is evident. The second part follows from the definition of an axis of reversion.\n\nCor. The intersection of two produced diagonals equidistant from the centre, in any reversibly partitioned $r$-gon, is upon an axis of reversion.\n\nIX. Theorem E. No $(2m+1)$-gon has an agonial or diagonal, and no $(2m)$-gon has a monogonal, axis of reversion.\nFor a monogonal axis must have an equal number of vertices of the $r$-gon on each side of it, besides the vertex through which it passes; hence $r$ is odd. And a diagonal axis must have an equal number of vertices on either side, besides the two through which it passes. And an agonal axis, which passes through no angles, must have an equal number of vertices on either side. Hence, in these two latter cases, $r$ is even.\n\n**X. Theorem F.** If one axis of reversion is monogonal in a partitioned $r$-gon, all its axes of reversion are monogonal and odd in number.\n\nFor $r$ is odd, and the $r$-gon cannot have either a diagonal or an agonal axis; and as each axis bisects two aspects, A and B, A must be opposite to B in the circle ..ABABAB.. of axial configurations; i.e. the number of its terms is $2(2m+1)$, wherefore the axes are odd in number.\n\n**XI. Theorem G.** If there be a drawn axis of reversion, a, in a $(1+k)$-partitioned $r$-gon, there cannot be more than one other axis. If there be another, b, it is undrawn, and perpendicular to the former, a, and is either agonal or diagonal, as $r=4m+2$, or $r=4m$.\n\nFor, if there be a second axis, b, it cannot meet the drawn one, and must be undrawn. And all the $k$ diagonals are symmetrically placed about or upon this b; therefore a, meeting it and bisecting it in the centre of the $r$-gon, meets it at right angles; otherwise (Theorem D) two diagonals would meet b in the centre, which is impossible. And no line besides b can so meet a; wherefore a and b are the only axes. As a is not a monogonal axis, neither is b (Theorem F). If $r=4m$, a has on either side an even number of sides of the $r$-gon, and b, bisecting that system, is diagonal; if $r=4m+2$, a has on either side an odd number of sides of the $r$-gon bisected by b, which is therefore an agonal axis. Q. E. D.\n\n**XII. Theorem H.** If there be more than one undrawn axis of reversion in a partitioned $r$-gon, the $r$-gon is built regularly on a polygonal nucleus ($Q$), which is reversible about all the axes of reversion of the $r$-gon, and has no drawn diagonal.\n\nFor consider the symmetry of the $r$-gon about any one of its axes, a, which are all undrawn (Theorem G). We see, on each side of a, $f$ marginal faces, limited each by one diagonal $d$ and certain sides of the $r$-gon, the $2f$ diagonals $d$ forming pairs making angles bisected by a. Let these $2f$ faces be erased: the $2f$ lines $d$ are now sides of an $r'$-gon, ($r'<r$), which is still reversible about a, for the symmetry about a is not disturbed by the erasures. This $r'$-gon has also $2f''$ marginal faces which can be erased, leaving an $r''$-gon ($r''<r'$) still reversible about a; and thus by erasure of all the pairs of faces about a, the $r$-gon will be finally reduced to a polygon P, having no diagonals but what are bisected at right angles by a (Theorem D). Let Q be that portion of P which contains the centre of the $r$-gon, and $Q_1$, $Q_2$, &c. the remaining portions of P limited by perpendiculars to a. Then Q has evidently no diagonals.\n\nNext consider the symmetry of the $r$-gon about any other axis b. We can reduce it by erasure of pairs of faces about b to a polygon P', consisting of a portion $Q'$ about the centre and having no diagonals, and of portions limited by diagonals perpendicular to b. Q and $Q'$ are polygons about the centre having no diagonals; they are therefore one\npolygon Q. The polygons $Q_1$, $Q_2$, the remaining portions of P, have disappeared in the erasure of pairs of faces about b and Q; that is, every one of them, $Q_m$, is one of a set of two or more faces standing symmetrically about Q. Therefore Q is a nucleus, reversible about all the axes of the r-gon, free from diagonals, and having everything arranged symmetrically about it in the r-gon. Q. E. D.\n\nXIII. Theorem K. If there be no axis of reversion in a partitioned r-gon except one undrawn, a, the figure is built symmetrically about a and about a polygonal nucleus P, which has either no diagonals, or only what are at right angles to a.\n\nThis is established by the former part of the preceding demonstration.\n\nBut the polygon P, in this singly reversible r-gon, if it has diagonals perpendicular to the axis, is not properly a nucleus; nor is there any reason why one portion of it, Q, should be called a nucleus rather than $Q_1$ or $Q_2$; for P can be constructed by loading opposite sides of any of them with proper polygons. But if P is a simple polygon, it is properly the nucleus of the figure, which is made by loading opposite sides of it, on different sides of the axis, with the same polygons, thus preserving the reversibility about the axis.\n\nXIV. Theorem L. If a diagonal axis of the nucleus is an axis of reversion of the r-gon, it is a diagonal axis thereof.\n\nFor it passes through two angles of the r-gon.\n\nTheorem M. An agonial axis of the r-gon is an agonial axis of the nucleus.\n\nFor a diagonal or monogonal axis of the nucleus passes through a vertex of the r-gon, and cannot be an agonial axis of it.\n\nTheorem N. If an agonial axis of the nucleus is an axis of the r-gon, it may be an agonial, or a diagonal, or a monogonal axis of it.\n\nFor the sides of the nucleus through which that agonial axis passes may be sides of the r-gon, or they may be loaded with agonally reversible polygons having the same agonial axis: this will then be an agonial axis of the r-gon.\n\nOr those sides may be loaded both with monogonally reversible polygons, having their axes in prolongation of that agonial axis: this makes it a diagonal axis of the r-gon.\n\nOr one of those sides may be loaded with a monogonally reversible polygon, and the other either not at all, or with an agonally reversible: this, if the axes of the imposed polygon are in direction with that agonial axis, makes it a monogonal axis of the r-gon.\n\nXV. Theorem O. A monogonal axis of the nucleus may be either a monogonal or a diagonal axis of the r-gon.\n\nFor the side of the nucleus which that axis bisects may be unloaded, or loaded with an agonally reversible polygon, so as to make it a monogonal axis of the r-gon. Or that side can be loaded with a monogonally reversible polygon, so as to make the axis a diagonal one of the r-gon.\n\nIt is easily seen, and unnecessary to be formally propounded, how and how far the converses of these latter propositions are to be laid down.\nDef. A clear axis of reversion meets no diagonal at right angles.\n\nA scored or loaded axis of reversion meets one or more diagonals at right angles.\n\nAn e-scored axis of reversion meets e diagonals at right angles, of course bisecting them.\n\nThe clear and the loaded axis are both supposed undrawn.\n\nXVI. Theorem P. If a clear axis of a \\((2m+3)\\)-ly reversible r-gon be scored in any way by e diagonals at right angles to it, the r-gon becomes singly reversible about that scored axis.\n\nFor, let \\(ABC\\ldots\\) be the axes of reversion of the r-gon \\(N\\). The scored axis \\(A\\) remains an axis of reversion, because the symmetry about is not disturbed by the perpendicular scores; but none of the other axes \\(BC\\ldots\\) is perpendicular to \\(A\\) (Theorem B); wherefore each meets singly all the scores upon \\(A\\), and is no axis of reversion (Theorem D) of the scored r-gon \\(N'\\). Let then, \\(M\\), any other diameter of \\(N'\\) not amongst \\(ABC\\ldots\\) be an axis of reversion; it meets all the diagonals to which it is not perpendicular in pairs whose angles it bisects (Theorem D); wherefore these are pairs of equidistants from the centre; now the intersections of all these, except the newly-added scores upon \\(A\\), are on the axes \\(BC\\ldots\\) (Cor. Theorem D); wherefore \\(M\\), passing through the centre and one of these intersections, is one of the lines \\(ABC\\ldots\\), contrary to hypothesis, which is absurd. Therefore \\(A\\) is the only axis of reversion of \\(N'\\). Q. E. D.\n\nXVII. Theorem Q. If any loaded axis \\((A)\\) of a \\((2m+3)\\)-ly reversible r-gon \\((N)\\) be cleared by erasure of the diagonals perpendicular to \\(A\\), the cleared figure \\((N')\\) is singly reversible about that axis \\(A\\).\n\nFor, let \\(ABC\\ldots\\) be the axes of reversion of \\(N\\), on which are the diagonals at right angles to them \\(abc\\ldots\\) forming a system of lines symmetrically placed about the centre (Theorem D). No one of these \\(B\\), after the erasure of \\(a\\) from \\(A\\), is an axis of reversion of \\(N'\\), because the diagonal \\(b\\) at right angles to \\(B\\) is not one of a system of lines symmetrically placed about the centre (Theorem D). Let then, \\(M\\), any other diameter of \\(N'\\) be an axis of reversion of \\(N'\\); this line meets all the diagonals of \\(N'\\) not perpendicular to it in pairs, whose angles it bisects, wherefore these pairs are equidistants from the centre of \\(N'\\); but all the intersections of these pairs lie on the lines \\(ABC\\ldots\\) (Cor. Theorem D); wherefore \\(M\\) is one of these lines \\(ABC\\ldots\\). Q. E. A. Therefore \\(A\\) is the only axis of reversion of \\(N'\\). Q. E. D.\n\nXVIII. Theorem R. If a clear axis \\((A)\\) of reversion of a \\(2m\\)-ly reversible partitioned r-gon \\((N)\\) be scored by perpendiculars to it symmetrically about the centre, the figure is not made singly reversible about \\((A)\\); but if it be so scored unsymmetrically about the centre, the scored figure \\((N')\\) is singly reversible about that axis \\((A)\\).\n\nFor there is an axis perpendicular to \\(A\\) (Theorem B) about which the symmetry is not disturbed by symmetric scores, i.e. pairs of parallels to it equidistant from the centre, or a diameter parallel with such pairs.\n\nBut when the scores are not such pairs, or a diameter and such pairs, the axis perpendicular to \\(A\\) is no axis of reversion evidently; nor is any other diameter of \\(N'\\),\nfor it meets all those scores singly. Wherefore A is the only axis of reversion of $N'$. Q. E. D.\n\n**XIX. Theorem S.** If a clear axis A of a singly reversible partitioned r-gon $N'$ be scored by diagonals perpendicular to it, the scored figure $N$ becomes sometimes singly, and at other times $(2m+3)$-ly reversible about the scored axis.\n\nFor the r-gon $N'$ being singly reversible has no axis of reversion perpendicular to A; and no addition of diagonals parallel to the perpendicular diameter can make it an axis of reversion; for that addition cannot alter its intersections with the diagonals of $N'$; wherefore $N$ is not $2m$-ly reversible (Theorem D and B). If $N'$ should be the $N'$ of Theorem Q, and the scores upon A should be those erased in that theorem, $N$ will be the $(2m+3)$-ly reversible of that theorem: but if this is not the case in both these conditions, $N$ will remain, like $N'$ unscored, singly reversible about A, since the scores do not disturb the symmetry about that axis. Q. E. D.\n\nWhat precedes about singly reversibles with loaded axes is sufficient for our present purpose, which is to show that before we can determine the number of singly reversibles, with clear and loaded axes, it is necessary that we should know the number of $(2m+1)$-ly reversible $(1+k-e)$-partitions of the r-gon which have a clear axis, i.e. which have clear axes; for here the configurations about all the axes are alike (Theorem C); and also that of the $2m$-ly reversible $(1+k-e)$-partitioned r-gons which have one configuration about clear axes, and also of those which have both their configurations about clear axes. This matter will be more evident as we proceed.\n\n**XX.** Let $R_{2h.agdi}(r,k)_n$, $R_{h.ag}(r,k)_n$, $R_{h.di}(r,k)_n$, $R_{h.mo}(r,k)_n$ denote the whole number of $(1+k)$-partitioned r-gons built on the n-gonal nucleus ($n > 2$), which have (Theorem C)\n\n- $R_{2h.agdi}(r,k)_n$, h agonal and h diagonal,\n- $R_{h.ag}(r,k)_n$, h agonal only,\n- $R_{h.di}(r,k)_n$, h diagonal only, and\n- $R_{h.mo}(r,k)_n$, h monogonal axes only, of reversion.\n\nWe shall denote those having all their axes clear by c subscript to R; those having no clear axes by zero subscript to R; those of the second and third classes which have half their axes, bearing one configuration, clear, by $\\frac{1}{2}c$ subscript, and those of the first, which have half their axes clear, the agonal or the diagonal ones, by ac or dc subscript to R. We write\n\n$$R_{2h.agdi}(r,k)_n = R_{c.agdi}(r,k)_n + R_{ac.agdi}(r,k)_n + R_{dc.agdi}(r,k)_n + R_{0.agdi}(r,k)_n,$$\n\n$$R_{h.ag}(r,k)_n = R_{c.ag}(r,k)_n + R_{ac.ag}(r,k)_n + R_{dc.ag}(r,k)_n,$$\n\n$$R_{h.di}(r,k)_n = R_{c.di}(r,k)_n + R_{ac.di}(r,k)_n + R_{dc.di}(r,k)_n,$$\n\n$$R_{h.mo}(r,k)_n = R_{c.mo}(r,k)_n + R_{ac.mo}(r,k)_n.$$\n\nIn the second and third lines the second subclass is of course nothing when $h$ is odd. In the fourth class the number of axes of reversion is always odd. And in all those equations we suppose $n \\leq 3$.\nXXI. Before we can proceed to investigate formulæ for the determination of these numbers, it is necessary,—\nProblem a. To find the k-divisions of the r-gon or r-ace.\n\nBy the (1+k)-divisions of an r-gon I mean the entire number of ways in which k diagonals can be drawn in it, none crossing another, all ways being different which occupy different angles 12..r of the r-gon. Thus there are five 3-divisions, but only one 3-partition of the pentagon made by drawing a pair of diagonals. And there are five 3-divisions of a pentace made by breaking it into three triaces, but these are all the same 3-partition.\n\nIf we call the number sought of (1+k)-divisions of the r-gon D(r, k), we can express it in terms of D(r', k'), r'<r, and k'<k.\n\nFor consider any diagonal b, drawn from any angle β of the r-gon, dividing it into a (3+h)-gon and a (r-h-1)-gon. This line b will be drawn in the (1+k)-divisions along with every (1+ε)-division of the (3+h)-gon, combined with every (k-ε)-division of the (r-h-1)-gon, ε diagonals being drawn on one side, and k-ε-1 diagonals on the other side of b.\n\nThat is,\n\n\\[ \\Sigma_{\\epsilon} D(3+h, \\epsilon) \\times D(r-h-1, k-\\epsilon-1) \\]\n\ntaken from ε=0 to ε=k-1, is the number of (1+k)-divisions in which that line b will be seen.\n\nIf, now, we give to h every value from h=0 to h=r-4; we shall have counted every (1+k)-division in which any line b appears that can be drawn from that angle β. If we put for β each of the r angles in succession, that is, if we multiply by r, we shall have enumerated every (1+k)-division in which any line b appears, that is drawn from any angle β. But we have thus handled twice, once from either extremity, every line in every set of k diagonals; that is, we have counted every (1+k)-division 2k times. Wherefore the correct result is\n\n\\[ 2k \\cdot D(r, k)=r \\cdot \\Sigma_{h} \\Sigma_{\\epsilon}\\{D(3+h, \\epsilon) \\cdot D(r-h-1, k-\\epsilon-1)\\}, \\]\n\nwhere every value of h from h=0 to h=r-4 is to be combined with every value of ε from ε=0 to ε=k-1. If, then, we know these divisions for all values of r and k up to D(r-1, k-1), we obtain D(r, k) by addition. And as D(r+0)=1, and D(r, 1)=\\(\\frac{1}{2}r \\cdot (r-3)\\), D(r, 2) is given, and thence D(r, 3), and so on, up to D(r, k), for any given values of r and k.\n\nXXII. To find D(r, k) in terms of r, for the general value of r, and for a given value of k, we write\n\n\\[ D(r, k)=Ar^{ak}+Bra^{ak-1}+\\ldots+Lr+M; \\]\n\nfor we know that this number is not greater than \\(\\{\\frac{1}{2}(r \\cdot (r-3))\\}^{k-1} \\times \\sqrt{k+1}-1\\), that of all possible sets of k diagonals that cross or not.

LM.\n\nSo far as I have pursued the inquiry, I find always one factorial form of the function $D(r, k)$; but in order to prove that this is always the form, it is necessary to show that, if\n\n$$D(3+h, \\varepsilon) = \\frac{(3+h)!}{(\\varepsilon+1)} \\times \\frac{(3+h-\\varepsilon-2)!}{(\\varepsilon+2)}, \\text{ and}$$\n\n$$D(r-h-1, k-\\varepsilon-1) = \\frac{(r-h-1)^{k-\\varepsilon-1}}{(k-\\varepsilon)} \\times \\frac{(r-h-k+\\varepsilon-2)^{k-\\varepsilon-1}}{(k-\\varepsilon+1)},$$\n\n$$D(r, k) = \\frac{r}{2k} \\sum_{h} \\left\\{ D(3+h, \\varepsilon) \\cdot D(r-h-1, k-\\varepsilon-1) \\right\\} = \\frac{r^{k!}}{(k+1)} \\times \\frac{(r-k-2)^{k!}}{(k+2)},$$\n\nfrom $h=0$ to $h=r-4$, and from $\\varepsilon=0$ to $\\varepsilon=k-1$; which is the expression that I continually find.\n\nThis summation I must leave to the learned and industrious reader; but, meanwhile, I shall venture to enunciate with the best demonstration, such as it is, that occurs to me, the following\n\n**Theorem T.** The number of $(1+k)$-divisions of an $r$-gon, i.e. of all the ways in which $k$ diagonals can be drawn in it, none crossing another, is\n\n$$D(r, k) = \\frac{r^{k!}}{(k+2)} \\times \\frac{(r-k-2)^{k!}}{(k+1)}.$$\n\nFor first, let the $r$-gon be divided into triangles, i.e. let $k=r-3$. Here the $(3+h)$-gon of the preceding article can have only $h$ diagonals, or $\\varepsilon=h$; and the final result, the last equation of that article, becomes\n\n$$D(r, r-3) = \\frac{r}{2(r-3)} \\cdot \\sum_{h} \\left\\{ D(3+h, h) \\cdot D(r-h-1, r-h-4) \\right\\},$$\n\nfrom $h=0$ to $h=r-4$.\n\nHence we obtain for $r=4, r=5, r=6, \\&c.,$\n\n$$D(4, 1) = \\frac{4}{2} \\cdot D(3, 0) \\cdot D(3, 0) = 2 = \\frac{4^{4-3!}}{4-1},$$\n\n$$D(5, 2) = \\frac{5}{2} \\cdot \\left\\{ D(3, 0) \\cdot D(4, 1) + D(4, 1) \\cdot D(3, 0) \\right\\} = 5 = \\frac{5^{5-3!}}{5-1},$$\n\n$$D(6, 3) = \\frac{6}{3} \\left\\{ D(3, 0)D(5, 2) + D(4, 1) \\cdot D(4, 1) + D(5, 2)(D3, 0) \\right\\} = 14 = \\frac{6^{6-3!}}{6-1},$$\n\n$$D(7, 4) = \\frac{7}{4} \\left\\{ D(3, 0)D(6, 3) + D(4, 1)D(5, 2) + D(5, 2)D(4, 1) + D(6, 3) \\cdot D(3, 0) \\right\\} = 42 = \\frac{7^{7-3!}}{7-1};$$\n\nand as we have demonstrated that $D(8, 5)$ is a sum of products of these continuous\nfunctions, it is a continuous function, and has a permanent form: wherefore it is sufficiently evident that\n\n\\[ D(r, r-3) = \\frac{r^{r-3}!}{(r-1)!}. \\]\n\nWe know that \\( D(r, k) = 0 \\), if \\( k > 0 \\), for every value of \\( r \\) from \\( r = 3 \\) to \\( r = k - 2 \\); for no \\((k-2)\\)-gon has \\( k \\) diagonals none crossing another.

Theorem U.** Every m-ly irreversible k-partition of an r-gon occurs \\( \\frac{2r}{m} : m \\) times among the k-divisions, and every m-ly reversible k-partition of it is found \\( r : m \\) times among the k-divisions.\n\nFor any m-ly irreversible k-partition has a different configuration about \\( r : m \\) successive angles (III.), and is nowhere its own reflexion; so that \\( r : m \\) more configurations the reflexions of the former are read on the reversed face of the r-gon. And as all these configurations are found among the k-divisions separately enumerated about the same angle, this partition is counted \\( 2r : m \\) times among them.\n\nAnd any m-ly reversible k-partition of the r-gon has \\( r : m \\) different configurations in the interval between the termination of any axis A and its repetition, that is, about \\( r : m \\) angles if A be an agonal axis, and about \\( r : m \\) sides if it be diagonal. The central configuration of these \\( r : m \\) is about the axis alternate with A; the others form pairs of configurations reflecting each other. All these are constructed and counted separately among the k-divisions about the same point of the r-gon; i.e., this partition is counted \\( r : m \\) times among the k-divisions. Q. E. D.\n\nLet \\( R^m(r, k) \\) denote the entire number of m-ly reversible \\((1+k)\\)-partitions of the r-gon about all nuclei, and all kinds of axes, and let \\( I^m(r, k) \\) stand for the complete number of m-ly irreversible \\((1+k)\\)-partitions.\n\nThe theorem U may be thus expressed:\n\n\\[ D(r, k) = \\Sigma_m \\left\\{ \\frac{r}{m} \\cdot R^m(r, k) + \\frac{2r}{m} \\cdot I^m(r, k) \\right\\}, \\text{ or, } (m > 0), \\]\n\\[2r \\cdot I(r, k) = D(r, k) - \\Sigma_m \\left\\{ \\frac{r}{m} R^m(r, k) + \\frac{2r}{m+1} I^{m+1}(r, k) \\right\\};\\]\n\nwhich shows that, if we can find \\(R^m(r, k)\\) and \\(I^{m+1}(r, k)\\) for all values of \\(m > 0\\), we can obtain the most numerous of all the classes, \\(I(r, k)\\), by a simple subtraction and division.\n\nXXIV. Our first step towards the actual solution of our problem of partitions, which, after all these tedious prolegomena, we may now think of taking, is to find the numbers in (XX.). We begin with\n\n\\[R_{2hagdi}(r, k)_n = R_{c_{2hagdi}}(r, k)_n + R_{ac_{2hagdi}}(r, k)_n + R_{dc_{2hagdi}}(r, k)_n + R_{o_{2hagdi}}(r, k)_n.\\]\n\nProblem b. To find \\(R_{c_{2hagdi}}(r, k)_n\\), the number of \\((1+k)\\)-partitioned \\(r\\)-gons, built on the \\(n\\)-gonal nucleus, and having \\(h\\) agonal and \\(h\\) diagonal axes of reversion, all clear.\n\nThere are, in every one of these, \\(2h\\) equidistant terminations of diagonal axes, between which intervene \\(\\frac{n}{2h}\\) sides of the \\(n\\)-gon; the central side of these \\(\\frac{n}{2h}\\) is bisected by an agonal axis, wherefore \\(\\frac{n}{2h}\\) is an odd number.\n\nIf we mark this central side as the \\(n\\)th of the \\(n\\)-gon, we see on either side of it \\(\\frac{1}{2} \\left( \\frac{n}{2h} - 1 \\right)\\) sides between it and a termination of a diagonal axis. This \\(n\\)th side is one of \\(2h\\) equidistant sides of the \\(n\\)-gon, bisected by terminations of agonal axes, namely the\n\n\\[\\frac{n}{2h}, \\frac{2n}{2h}, \\frac{3n}{2h}, \\ldots n\\text{th sides},\\]\n\nwhich are all unloaded, being sides both of the \\(r\\)-gon and the \\(n\\)-gon. The \\(\\frac{1}{2} \\left( \\frac{n}{2h} - 1 \\right)\\) sides on either side of the \\(n\\)th are loaded, the first and \\((n-1)\\)th with a certain \\(e_1\\)-partitioned \\((2+a_1)\\)-gon, so as to form a configuration bisected by the agonal axis between them; the second and \\((n-2)\\)th by a \\(e_2\\)-partitioned \\((2+a_2)\\)-gon placed in like reversible manner, and so on; in such a way as to satisfy the equations following,\n\n\\[\n\\begin{align*}\n    r &= n + 4h(a_1 + a_2 + \\ldots + a_{n-2h}), \\\\\n    k &= n - 2h + 4h(e_1 + e_2 + \\ldots + e_{n-2h}),\n\\end{align*}\n\\]\n\nwhere \\(a_m \\geq 0\\), and \\(e_m \\geq a_m - 1\\), since no \\((2+a_m)\\)-gon can have more than \\(a_m - 1\\) diagonals drawn none crossing another; wherefore if \\(a_m = 0\\), \\(e_m = -1\\).\n\nThese \\(\\frac{n-2h}{4h}\\) polygons \\(a_1, a_2, \\ldots\\) are laid on in the same manner to correspond about the \\(\\frac{n}{2h}\\) th \\(\\frac{2n}{2h}\\) th, &c. sides; i.e. they fill up the \\(4h\\) intervals between agonal and diagonal axes, making a configuration reversible about any one of them.\n\nXXV. The equations (A.) must be satisfied, because the \\(n\\) summits of the \\(n\\)-gon, with the \\(a_1\\) summits added \\(4h\\) times in the \\((2+a_1)\\)-gon, and the \\(a_m\\) summits added \\(4h\\) times in\nthe \\((2+a_m)\\)-gon, must make up the \\(r\\) summits of the \\(r\\)-gon. And, supposing that \\(a_m\\) everywhere > 0, the \\(n-2h\\) loaded sides of the \\(n\\)-gon, with the \\(e_m\\) diagonals of every \\((2+a_m)\\)-gon \\(4h\\) times laid on, must make up the \\(k\\) diagonals of the \\(r\\)-gon. And if \\(a_m=0\\), in which case the \\(m\\)th and \\((n-m)\\)th sides of the \\(n\\)-gon are unloaded, whereby \\(4h\\) sides besides the \\(2h\\) above-mentioned remain sides common to the \\(r\\)-gon and the \\(n\\)-gon, the appearance of \\(e_m=-1\\) corrects the error made by counting those \\(4h\\) sides for diagonals of the \\(r\\)-gon, and the second equation still remains true, however many of the numbers \\(a_1, a_2, \\&c.\\) = 0. But these equations are impossible, and \\(R_{shagdi}(r, k)_n=0\\), unless \\(r=n, n-2h,\\) and \\(k-n+2h\\) are all multiples of \\(4h\\).\n\nConsider any single solution of the equation (A.), and let \\(N\\) be an \\(r\\)-gon bearing, on the \\(m\\)th side everywhere reckoned in both directions from the one bisected by an agonal axis, a \\((2+a_m)\\)-gon having \\(e_m\\) diagonals. Whatever be the posture of those \\(e_m\\) diagonals, and whatever be the character of the \\((2+a_m)\\)-gon, the figure is reversible at least about \\(h\\) agonal and \\(h\\) diagonal axes. And let \\(C\\) be the configuration read in \\(N\\) about the agonal axis through the \\(n\\)th side of the \\(n\\)-gon.\n\nXXVI. Let, next, any disturbance be made in the arrangement of the \\(e_m\\) diagonals in one or more of these imposed \\(\\frac{n-2h}{4h}\\) polygons, so that the reversible character about the \\(2h\\) axes be preserved, and the diagonals of the \\((2+a_m)\\)-gon on both sides of any axis shall form pairs making angles bisected by the intervening axis of reversion. The solution before us of (A.) being undisturbed in both values and order of the numbers \\(a_1, e_1, a_2, e_2, \\&c.\\), we can combine every \\((1+e_m)\\)-division of the \\((2+a_m)\\)-gon in the interval with every \\((1+e_p)\\)-division of the \\((2+a_p)\\)-gon, \\&c.; that is, we can make \\(C\\) take\n\n\\[D(2+a_1, e_1) \\cdot D(2+a_2, e_2) \\cdot D(2+a_3, e_3) \\cdots D(2+a_{n-2h}, e_{n-2h}) = \\Delta_{n-2h}^{4h}\\]\n\ndifferent forms, by mere variation of arrangement of diagonals, the same variation being made about every agonal axis, and consequently the same variation occurring about every diagonal axis. Of these \\(\\Delta_{n-2h}^{4h}\\) configurations no two can be alike; for the intervals of \\(\\frac{n-2h}{4h}\\) sides between two adjoining axes are irreversible configurations, if we look at the axes which limit them, because one is an agonal and the other a diagonal axis; so that, in fact, no disturbance of one or more diagonals of \\(N\\) can produce \\(N'\\) a repetition of \\(N\\). If the limiting axes were alike, it might possibly occur that \\(N'\\) should be a reflexion of \\(N\\), the configuration of one read from right to left in the interval being that of the other read from left to right.\n\nIt is to be observed here, and in all products that we may handle of the form of \\(\\Delta_{n-2h}^{4h}\\), that when \\(a_m=0\\) and consequently \\(e_m=-1\\), \\(D(2+a_m, e_m)\\) is either to be omitted, or counted unity, so that \\(\\Delta 0\\) is always = 1.\n\nXXVII. Next, let us make a variation in our solution of equation (A.), either by altering two or more values of \\(a_1, a_2, \\&c.\\) or of \\(e_1, e_2, \\&c.\\) or of both; or by exchanging the places of certain values without altering them. It is evident that \\(C'\\), the result of such\ndisturbance of the solution, must differ from every C that we have before regarded about\nthe axis through the nth side of the n-gon; for it has no longer the same polygons in\nthe same places of the interval between the axes. We have either changed the order of\nthe imposed polygons, or we have in certain places put a \\((1 + e_p)\\)-partitioned \\((2 + a_p)\\)-gon\nwhich was not employed in the construction of C, for a \\((1 + e_m)\\)-partitioned \\((2 + a_m)\\)-gon,\nwhich was. Whatever be the solution we work from, we shall be able to produce from\nit, by mere disturbances of diagonals in the imposed polygons, \\(D_{n-2h}\\) distinct configura-\ntions, all different from the \\(D_{n-2h}\\) counted before; and all the r-gons thus produced will\nhave the property of being reversible about h agonal and h diagonal axes. And it is\nevident, that every configuration about an agonal axis of any \\((1 + k)\\)-partitioned r-gon,\nhaving h agonal and h diagonal axes of reversion, will be produced from some solution\nof equations (A.), and some arrangement of diagonals in the imposed polygons.\n\nIf, then, we denote by \\(S.D_{n-2h}\\) the sum of the products \\(D_{n-2h}\\) made from every solu-\ntion of equations (A.), every change, either in value or order, of \\(a_1, e_1, a_2, e_2, \\&c.\\) being\ncounted as a solution, we find that \\(S.D_{n-2h}\\), many terms of which will be equal numbers,\nis the exact number of configurations about an agonal axis which can be seen on any\n\\((1 + k)\\)-partitioned r-gon having h agonal and h diagonal clear axes of reversion.\n\nNow no ago-diagonally reversible has two configurations about agonal axes; and\nevery \\((1 + k)\\)-partitioned r-gon having \\(i\\)h agonal and \\(i\\)h diagonal axes, is reversible about\n\\(h\\) agonal and \\(h\\) diagonal axes, whatever positive number \\(i\\) may be; for it has \\(h\\) equi-\ndistant agonal axes, and between every pair of these \\((i - 1)\\) more agonal axes, and it has\n\\(h\\) diagonal axes, because \\(i\\)h diagonal axes bisect the angles between the \\(i\\)h agonal ones.\nHence it follows that\n\n\\[ S.D_{n-2h} = S.R_{2ihagdi}(r, k)_n, \\]\n\nwhere \\(i\\) is every whole number giving \\(\\frac{n-2ih}{4ih}, \\frac{r-n}{4ih}, \\text{and } \\frac{k-n+2ih}{4ih}\\) positive integers; con-\nditions necessary to the existence of equations (A.).\n\nXXVIII. Consequently \\((i > 0)\\),\n\n\\[ R_{2h.agdi}(r, k)_n = S.D_{n-2h} - S.R_{(i+1)h.agdi}(r, k)_n, \\]\n\nfor all values of \\((i+1)h = h'\\), which make \\(n-2h', r-n, \\text{and all multiples of } 4h'\\).\n\nAs \\(r > n, n-2h > 0\\) in equations (A.); hence \\(n < 6h, \\text{and if } 2h > \\frac{n}{3}, R_{2h} = 0; \\text{i.e.} \\)\n\n\\[ R_{n.agdi}(r, k)_n = R_{n.agdi}(r, k)_n = 0. \\]\n\nIf \\(n = 6h\\), the equations (A.) become\n\n\\[ r-n = \\frac{2n}{3}a_1, \\]\n\\[ k-\\frac{2n}{3} = \\frac{2n}{3}e_1, \\]\n\\[2 + a_1 = \\frac{3r + n}{2n}, \\quad e_1 = \\frac{3k - 2n}{2n}\\]\n\n\\[\\Delta_{n-2h}^{4h} = D(2 + a_1, e_1) = D\\left(\\frac{3r + n}{2n}, \\frac{3k - 2n}{2n}\\right),\\]\n\nand this is \\(\\Sigma \\Delta_{n-2h}^{4h}\\), as there is no other solution of (A.). Wherefore\n\n\\[R_{c}^{n_{agdi}}(r, k) = D\\left(\\frac{3r + n}{2n}, \\frac{3k - 2n}{2n}\\right).\\]\n\nNext let \\(\\frac{n - 2h}{4h} = 2\\), or \\(2h = \\frac{n}{5}\\); we obtain\n\n\\[R_{c}^{n_{agdi}}(r, k) = \\Sigma \\Delta_{n-2h}^{4h} - R_{c}^{n}(r, k),\\]\n\nwhich is a given number. Here, as before, \\(\\Sigma \\Delta\\) has as many terms as there are solutions of\n\n\\[r = n + \\frac{2n}{5}(a_1 + a_2)\\]\n\n\\[k = \\frac{4n}{5} + \\frac{2n}{5}(e_1 + e_2).\\]\n\nFor an example, let \\(r = 78, k = 48, n = 30; \\frac{n}{5} = 6\\): to find \\(R_{c}^{6_{agdi}}(78, 48)_{30}\\), we form the solutions of\n\n\\[4 = a_1 + a_2 \\quad (a_m > 0, \\quad e_m > a_m - 1)\\]\n\n\\[2 = e_1 + e_2,\\]\n\nof which there are five, namely,\n\n\\[4 = 4 + 0 = 0 + 4 = 3 + 1 = 1 + 3 = 2 + 2\\]\n\n\\[2 = 3 - 1 = -1 + 3 = 2 + 0 = 0 + 2 = 1 + 1;\\]\n\nwhence, disregarding the negative \\(-1\\), we obtain\n\n\\[2.D(6, 3) + 2.D(5, 2).D(3, 0) + D(4, 1).D(4, 1) = \\Sigma \\Delta_{n-2h}^{4h},\\]\n\nor\n\n\\[\\Sigma \\Delta_{n-2h}^{4h} = 2.14 + 2.5 + 2^2 = 42;\\]\n\nand\n\n\\[R_{c}^{6_{agdi}}(78, 48)_{30} = 42 - R_{c}^{10_{agdi}}(78, 48)_{30} = 42,\\]\n\nbecause \\(\\frac{78 - 30}{20}\\) is not a whole number.\n\nWe may then put \\(\\frac{30 - 2h}{4h} = 7\\), the next possible integral value after 2 of that subindex; and thus finding \\(h = 1\\), proceed to enumerate \\(R_{c}^{2_{agdi}}(78, 48)_{30}\\). The equations (A.) become\n\n\\[\\frac{78 - 30}{4} = 12 = a_1 + a_2 + \\ldots + a_7\\]\n\n\\[\\frac{48 - 28}{4} = 5 = e_1 + e_2 + \\ldots + e_7,\\]\n\nand the solutions are already numerous. The sum of products \\(\\Delta_7\\) being found, we obtain\n\n\\[R_{c}^{2_{agdi}}(78, 48)_{30} = \\Sigma \\Delta_7 - 42.\\]\nThus it is evident that we can register $R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(r, k)_n$, from $h = \\frac{n}{3}$ to $h = 1$, for all values that make $r - n$, $n - 2h$, and $k - n + 2h$, multiples of $4h$.\n\nFor a simple and complete example, to be carried out through all our investigation, we may take the partitions of the octagon. Here we are to seek $R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(8, k)_n$. Evidently $n < 8$ (if $k > 0$), and $= 6$ or $= 4$.\n\nWhen $n = 6$, $\\frac{6 - 2h}{4h} = 1$, the only value, gives $h = 1$, and $R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(8, k)_6 = 0$ whatever be $k$, because $\\frac{8 - 6}{4}$ is not integer.\n\nWhen $n = 4$, $\\frac{4 - 2h}{4h}$ has no integer value $> 0$; wherefore, since $r > n$, $R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(8, k)_4 = 0$, for all values of $k$. Hence\n\n$$R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(8, k) = 0,$$\n\nwhatever be the nucleus, except that\n\n$$R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(8, 0) = 1 \\quad (\\text{art. III}).$$\n\nXXIX. Problem c. To find $R_{\\text{de agdi}}^2(r, k)_n$, the number of $(1 + k)$-partitioned $r$-gons, built on an $n$-gonal nucleus, having $h$ loaded agonals, and $h$ clear diagonal axes of reversion.\n\nThe investigation to be made differs from that in the five preceding articles in that the $2h$ sides of the $n$-gon, bisected by the agonal axes, are all loaded with a certain $(1 + \\varepsilon_0)$-partitioned $(4 + 2a_0)$-gon $A_0$, having at least one agonal axis of reversion (Theorem G.). This must be so posited that its agonal axis shall be in a line with that of the $n$-gon (Theorem N.), and must be placed alike on the $2h$ equidistant sides, since all agonal axes of the $r$-gon must bisect the same configuration at each end (Theorem C.).\n\nThe remaining sides of the $n$-gon may be loaded, the $m$th from $A_0$, with any $(1 + e_m)$-partitioned (or divisioned) $(2 + a_m)$-gon so as to form a figure reversible about the $2h$ axes, and so that the equations following be satisfied:\n\n$$r = n + 2h(2 + 2a_0) + 4h(a_1 + a_2 + \\ldots + a_{n-2h})$$\n\n$$k = n + 2h\\varepsilon_0 + 4h(e_1 + e_2 + \\ldots + e_{n-2h});$$\n\nwhere $a_m \\geq 0$, $e_m \\neq a_m - 1$; and $e_m = -1$, if $a_m = 0$;\n\nthe numbers $a_0$ and $\\varepsilon_0$ being any that we may select from our register of polygons having at least one agonal axis, which is supposed complete for values of $(2 + 2a_0)$ not greater than $\\frac{r - n}{2h}$. All that is said of the loading of the $\\frac{n - 2h}{4h}$ sides between the axes, and about the import and necessity of equations (A.), applies to equations (A').\n\nThe sides being thus loaded, we have an $r$-gon which has only clear diagonal axes, and is reversible about $2h$ equidistant and alternate agonal and diagonal axes. Leaving now the $2h$ agonally reversible $(1 + 2a_0)$-gons undisturbed, we can vary the positions of the diagonals, exactly as in (XXVI.), so as to produce about the agonal axis through the $n$th side of the $r$-gon\n\n$$D(2 + a_1, e_1) \\cdot D(2 + a_2, e_2) \\cdots D(2 + a_{n-2h}, e_{n-2h}) = \\Delta_{n-2h}.$$\ndifferent configurations, the numbers \\(a_1, e_1, \\&c.\\) here being those of a solution of equations (A'). And every one of these may be varied again by changing the posture of the \\((4+2\\alpha_0)\\)-gon, if it has a second configuration about an agonial axis, so that this axis shall come into a line with that of the \\(n\\)-gon, or by exchanging the \\((4+2\\alpha_0)\\)-gon for any other that is also \\((1+\\varepsilon_0)\\)-partitioned and has an agonial axis. The number of variations in our power by disturbance of the \\((4+2\\alpha_0)\\)-gons alone, is\n\n\\[\n\\Sigma_m \\{2R_{mag}(4+2\\alpha_0, \\varepsilon_0) + R_{magdi}(4+2\\alpha_0, \\varepsilon_0)\\} = H,\n\\]\n\nbecause each \\(m\\)-agonally reversible has two configurations about agonial axes and thus admits of two postures, while each ago-diagonally reversible has only one; whatever be the number \\(m\\) of agonial axes (Theorem A.).\n\nThus we see, that for every solution of equations (A') that we can write down, all values and orders of the numbers counting in the solution, we can make\n\n\\[\nH \\cdot \\Delta_{n-2h}^{4h}\n\\]\n\ndifferent configurations about the axis through the \\(n\\)th side of the \\(n\\)-gon. The proof that there are no two of them alike need not be repeated here from art.

To find \\( R_{c,mo}(r, k)_n \\), the number of \\((1+k)\\)-partitioned \\( r \\)-gons, built on the \\( n \\)-gonal nucleus to have \\( h \\) clear monogonal axes of reversion, and none besides.\n\nThe \\( h \\) clear axes (Theorem O) are monogonal axes of the \\( n \\)-gon, bisecting \\( h \\) equidistant sides of it; between which lie \\( h \\) vertices of the \\( n \\)-gon upon those \\( h \\) axes; and \\( n \\) is odd.

Let them first be all monogonal, i.e. let \\( n \\) be odd; this requires that each be loaded at one end\nwith an agonally reversible (about one or more axes) \\((1 + \\varepsilon_0)\\)-partitioned \\((4 + 2\\alpha_0)\\)-gon.\n\nThe intervals of \\(n - h\\) sides will be loaded as in the last preceding construction, to satisfy\n\n\\[\nr = n + h(2 + 2\\alpha_0) + 2h(a_1 + a_2 + \\ldots + a_{n-h}) \\\\\nk = n + h\\varepsilon_0 + 2h(e_1 + e_2 + \\ldots + e_{n-h})\n\\]\n\n\\((a_m > 0, e_m > a_m - 1), (n = 2m + 1)\\),\n\n\\((4 + 2\\alpha_0)\\) and \\(\\varepsilon_0\\) being numbers selected at pleasure from our register of agonally or ago-diagonally reversibles. Putting, as in XIX.,\n\n\\[\n\\Sigma_m \\{2R^{m, ag}(4 + 2\\alpha_0, \\varepsilon_0) + R^{2magdi}(4 + 2\\alpha_0, \\varepsilon_0)\\} = H,\n\\]\n\nand forming the product \\(\\Delta_{n-h}\\) from a solution of \\((D')\\) which contains those numbers \\(\\alpha_0, \\varepsilon_0\\), we deduce, as before, that \\(\\Sigma H \\cdot \\Delta_{n-h}\\), comprising as many products under \\(\\Sigma\\) as those solutions of \\((D')\\), all orders of the quantities \\(a_i, e_i, \\&c.\\) being counted as solutions, is the total number of axial configurations of \\((1 + k)\\)-partitioned \\(r\\)-gons having \\(h\\) loaded monogonal axes and built on the \\(n\\)-gonal nucleus when \\(n\\) is odd.\n\nAnd as one of these configurations is seen on each \\(r\\)-gon of the number \\(R^{(2i+1)h, mo}(r, k)_n\\), and only one, read from the loaded end of the axis, we obtain\n\n\\[\n\\Sigma(H \\cdot \\Delta_{n-h}) = \\Sigma R^{(2i+1)h, mo}(r, k)_n,\n\\]\n\nand\n\n\\[\nR^{h, mo}(r, k)_n = \\Sigma H \\cdot \\Delta_{n-h} - \\Sigma R^{(2i+3)h, mo}(r, k)_n,\n\\]\n\nwhere \\(n\\) is odd, and \\(i > 0\\).\n\nL. Now let the \\(h\\) axes be agonial axes of the \\(n\\)-gon; i.e. let \\(n\\) be even.\n\nOne end of every axis will carry (Theorem O) the same \\((3 + 2\\alpha_0)\\)-gon \\((1 + \\varepsilon_0)\\)-partitioned and reversible about at least one monogonal axis. The other ends will carry the same \\((2 + 2\\alpha_n)\\)-gon, \\((1 + \\varepsilon_n)\\)-partitioned and reversible about at least one agonial axis, which will be no load if \\(\\alpha_n = 0\\). The interval of \\(n - 2h\\) sides between these reversibles will be loaded, on the \\(m\\)th side from the first, with a \\((1 + e_m)\\)-partitioned \\((2 + \\alpha_m)\\)-gon; and the equations to be satisfied are,\n\n\\[\nr = n + h(1 + 2\\alpha_0) + 2h(a_1 + a_2 + \\ldots + a_{n-2h}) + h\\alpha_n \\\\\nk = n + h\\varepsilon_0 + 2h(e_1 + e_2 + \\ldots + e_{n-2h}) + h\\varepsilon_n\n\\]\n\n\\((D'')\\)\n\nwhere \\(a_m > 0, e_m > a_m - 1\\), and \\(\\alpha_0, \\varepsilon_0, \\alpha_n, \\varepsilon_n\\) are chosen at pleasure, the first pair from our register of monogonally reversibles, and the second from our agonally or ago-diagonally reversibles.\n\nTaking now any one solution of these equations, the product \\(H''M\\Delta\\) of\n\n\\[\nH'' = \\Sigma_m \\{2R^{m, ag}(2 + \\alpha_n, \\varepsilon_n) + R^{2magdi}(2 + \\alpha_n, \\varepsilon_n)\\},\n\\]\n\nMDCCCLVII.\nwhich is to be considered unity when \\( \\alpha_n = 0 \\), the load being then simply the edge of the \\( n \\)-gon),\n\n\\[\nM = \\Sigma_m R^{m, mo}(3 + \\alpha_0, \\varepsilon_0),\n\\]\n\n\\[\n\\Delta_{n-2h} = D(2 + \\alpha_1, e_1) \\cdot D(2 + \\alpha_2, e_2) \\times \\ldots D(2 + \\alpha_{n-2h}, e_{n-2h}),\n\\]\n\nis the number of configurations that we can produce, about the axis through the \\( n \\)th side of the \\( n \\)-gon, read from that side, of \\((1 + h)\\)-partitioned \\( r \\)-gons built on this nucleus from this one solution, to have \\( h \\) loaded monogonal axes. And the sum of these products belonging to every solution, all orders and values counting as solutions, is the exact number of all such configurations possible. Now one, and only one, of these is seen in each \\( r \\)-gon of the number \\( R^{(2i+1)h, mo}(r, k)_n \\), for \\( n \\) even.

In equation (D'), the highest value of \\( h \\) is \\( h = n \\).

But we cannot find \\( R_{\\text{mo}}^n(r, k) \\) by these formulæ, there being no such division reducible to a nucleus (VIII.).\n\nThus we have found (XLIX., L.) \\( R_{\\text{hmo}}^n(r, k) \\) for any value of \\( n > 2 \\).\n\nLII. All the numbers \\( R \\) of article XX. have now been determined, for every value of \\( h \\) when the axes are not all loaded, and for every value of \\( h > 1 \\) when they are all loaded, the nucleus being \\( n \\)-gonal, and \\( n < 3 \\). We have next to enumerate the doubly and singly reversibles which are built on the 2-gonal nucleus, that is, upon a line, which is of course a drawn axis of reversion of the \\( r \\)-gon, and also the singly reversibles which have an \\( e \\)-scored axis. These have no proper nucleus (Theorem K).\n\nThese \\( r \\)-gons now to be discussed fall into the classes following,\n\n\\[\nR_{\\text{agdi}}^2(r, k), R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(r, k), R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(r, k), R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(r, k), R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(r, k), R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(r, k);\n\\]\n\nof which the first two have a drawn diagonal axis standing as a perpendicular score upon an undrawn axis (Theorem G); the third has a single drawn diagonal axis (Theorem G); and the fourth, fifth and sixth have a single undrawn and scored axis of reversion (Theorem K). The subscript 2 in the first three symbols shows that the nucleus is a drawn line, which may be considered as a 2-gon reversible about a diagonal and an agonal axis.\n\nProblem o. To find \\( R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(r, k) \\), the \\((1+k)\\)-partitioned \\( r \\)-gons built on a nucleus-line to have a diagonal and an agonal axis of reversion.\n\nIf the drawn diagonal be erased, the figure will be still reversible about the same two axes undrawn, for (Theorem B, VI.) the erasure has not disturbed the symmetry about either axis. But the erasure may have restored the symmetry about some \\( n \\)-gonal nucleus of which that erased line is a clear diagonal axis (Theorem R, XVIII.). And every \\( r \\)-gon which has a clear diagonal axis perpendicular to an agonal one, that is, every one of \\( R_{\\text{agdi}}^{(4h+2)}(r, k-1) \\) and of \\( R_{\\text{agdi}}^{(4h+2)}(r, k-1) \\), whatever \\( h \\) or \\( n \\) may be, if \\( n > 2 \\) (Cor. 1, VII.), will give us one and only one (Theorem G) of \\( R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(r, k) \\), by the drawing of any diagonal axis of reversion; for all these axes bisect the same configuration.\n\nWherefore\n\n\\[\nR_{\\text{agdi}}^2(r, k) = \\sum_h \\left\\{ R_{\\text{agdi}}^{(4h+2)}(r, k-1) + R_{\\text{agdi}}^{(4h+2)}(r, k-1) \\right\\},\n\\]\n\nincluding all values of \\( h \\), and of \\( n > 2 \\) in our register; \\( n \\) of course being even, else it could have no diameter.\n\nAs we have nothing in our register under \\( R_{\\text{agdi}}^{(4h+2)}(8, k) \\), \\( R_{\\text{agdi}}^2(8, k) = 0 \\), whatever \\( k \\) may be.\n\nLIII. Problem p.

Every \\( r \\)-gon of the number\n\n\\[\nR_{2di}(r, k-1)_n\n\\]\n\nwill give us two of \\( R_{2di}(r, k)_2 \\), for we can draw a diagonal axis bisecting either of its configurations; and every \\( r \\)-gon of the number\n\n\\[\n(R_{2di} + R_{thagdi} + R_{thagdi})(r, k-1)_n,\n\\]\n\nwhich have all a clear diagonal axis at right angles to a diagonal axis (VI. VII.

Consequently\n\n\\[\nR_{di}(r, k)_2 = \\Sigma_h \\Sigma_n R_{(2h+1)di}(r, k-1)_n,\n\\]\n\ncomprehending all values of \\( h \\) including \\( h = 0 \\), and all of \\( n \\), in our register of \\( k \\)-partitions. Hence we obtain (XLVI.), \\( R_{di}(8, 5)_2 = R_{di}(8, 4)_4 = 2, \\)\n\n\\( R_{di}(8, 3)_2 = R_{di}(8, 2)_6 + R_{di}(8, 2)_4 = 2. \\)\n\nLV. Problem r. To find \\( R_{mo}(r, k) \\), the number of \\((1+k)\\)-partitioned \\( r \\)-gons reversible only about a single scored monogonal axis.\n\nThe number of ways in which \\( e \\) diagonals can be drawn at right angles across an axis\nof one of the \\( r \\)-gons of the division \\( R_{(2h+1)mo}(r, k-e)_2 \\) is \\( \\left( \\frac{n-3}{2} \\right)^{e-1} \\cdot (e+1)^{-1} \\); for any \\( e \\) vertices may be chosen out of \\( \\frac{n-3}{2} \\) on one side of the monogonal axis. The whole number of operations described in Theorems P and S, by which a \\((1+k)\\)-partitioned monogonal can arise, is the above operation performed on every \\((1+k-e)\\)-partitioned monogonal in our register for every value of \\( e, n, \\) and \\( h \\). The results, by Theorems E, P, and S, are all monogonally reversibles. And by Theorem Q we see that every \\((1+k)\\)-partitioned \\((2h+3)\\)-ly reversible about loaded monogonal axes will be among these results, whatever be its nucleus; and every singly reversible with a loaded monogonal axis will be among them; for if this be cleared, we have before us one of our subjects of operation just referred to in our register.

We have now to investigate the number of irreversible \\((1+k)\\)-partitions of the \\( r \\)-gon. And when we have determined \\( I^{m+2}(r, k) \\), \\( m \\geq 0 \\), the equations of art. XXIII. will enable us to complete the tedious solution of our problem. It is necessary to demonstrate the theorems following.\n\n**Theorem V.** Every \\( h \\)-ly irreversible partition of an \\( r \\)-gon, if \\( h > 2 \\), and every doubly irreversible partition in which a diameter of the \\( r \\)-gon is not drawn, is regularly built on a polygonal nucleus.\n\nFor in each of the \\( h \\) sequences of configuration (art. III.) in the circuit of the \\( r \\)-gon, we see \\( f \\) marginal faces. These being all erased, we see an \\( r' \\)-gon \\((r' < r)\\) with \\( f'h \\) fewer diagonals, and still \\( h \\) sequences, for those of the \\( r \\)-gon have been treated alike. If this \\( r' \\)-gon is reversibly partitioned, it is not singly reversible, because it has repeated sequences (V.); therefore the theorem is proved by XII.; for there is no drawn diameter by hypothesis. If the \\( r' \\)-gon be still irreversible, it has \\( h' \\) sequences \\((h' < h)\\), from which marginal faces can be removed as before; and thus we shall finally reduce the figure, either to a reversibly-partitioned \\( r'' \\)-gon, or to one having no marginal faces, i.e. to an \\( n \\)-gonal nucleus. And by reversing the process of reduction, the \\( r \\)-gon can be regularly constructed on that nucleus. Q. E. D.\n\n**LXIII. Theorem W.** If the nucleus line of a doubly irreversible \\( r \\)-gon built on it be erased, the figure becomes \\( 2h \\)-ly reversible or else \\( 2h \\)-ly irreversible, and has no drawn diameter.\n\nFor it has still two irreversible sequences, occupying each half the circuit of the \\( r \\)-gon, since the two sequences terminated by the nucleus-line have been treated alike by the erasure; wherefore it can neither be oddly reversible nor oddly irreversible (Obs. 1, 3, IV.; and 5, VII.). And evidently the \\( r \\)-gon cannot have a drawn diameter meeting its nucleus line.\n\n**Cor.** The \\( r \\)-gon, after the erasure, is one of those reducible to a polygonal nucleus.\n\n**Theorem X.** If in any \\( 2m \\)-ly reversible, or \\( 2m \\)-ly irreversible, \\( k \\)-partition of an \\( r \\)-gon, a diameter be drawn which is not an axis of reversion, and which meets no diagonal, the figure becomes a doubly irreversible \\((1+k)\\)-partition of the \\( r \\)-gon, built on that drawn line.\n\nFor such a drawn line disturbs the symmetry about every axis of a reversible, because it is (VI.) perpendicular to none of them; therefore the result is not reversible. And every \\( 2m \\)-ly reversible or \\( 2m \\)-ly irreversible has an irreversible sequence occupying half its circuit (III, V.), beginning at any angle not on an axis of reversion; therefore the result is not singly irreversible. And as there is no other sequence terminated by or exhibiting a drawn diameter, since two cannot be drawn, the result has no sequence\nmore than twice repeated, and is doubly irreversible. And evidently the figure is built on the drawn line, by applying to it the same polygon on both sides, so as not to give a reversible result.\n\nLXIV. Problem u. To find $P_h(r, k)_n$, $(h > 1, n > 2)$, the number of $h$-ly irreversible $(1+k)$-partitions of the $r$-gon, which are built on the $n$-gonal nucleus.\n\nThe construction differs from that of reversibles, in that the $(1+a_m)$-partitioned $(2+a_m)$-gon which is laid on the $m$th side of the $n$-gon in the first interval of $\\frac{n}{h}$ sides, is laid also on the $m$th side of every interval, so that the series of loads imposed is $h$ times repeated, and not reverted. The result will be an $r$-gon in whose circuit a sequence occupying $\\frac{n}{h}$ sides of the nucleus is $h$ times repeated.\n\nThe equations to be satisfied are\n\n$$ r = n + h(a_1 + a_2 + \\ldots + a_n) $$\n\n$$ k = n + h(e_1 + e_2 + \\ldots + e_n) $$\n\n$$ a_m \\geq 0, \\quad e_m \\geq a_m - 1; $$\n\nexactly as in our previous constructions.\n\nWe take any one solution, and lay on the polygons, and then make every possible change in the arrangement of the diagonals of the imposed polygons; this gives us\n\n$$ D(2+a_1, e_1)D(2+a_2, e_2)\\ldots D(2+a_n, e_n) = \\Delta_{\\frac{n}{h}} $$\n\ndifferent sequences read in the $r$-gon upon the first $\\frac{n}{h}$ sides of its nucleus, which are all $h$ times repeated in the same order in the circuit of the $r$-gon. We then take every other solution of (E.) that can arise from changing either the values or order of the numbers $a_1, a_2, \\ldots, e_1, e_2, \\ldots$; and forming a similar product from each solution, products which will some of them be equal to each other, we shall have enumerated in the sum\n\n$$ \\Sigma \\Delta_{\\frac{n}{h}} $$\n\nevery possible sequence that can be read on $\\frac{n}{h}$ successive sides of the $n$-gonal nucleus of any $(1+k)$-partitioned $r$-gon, which has that sequence $h$ times repeated in its circuit. And no two of these sequences can be alike, because they are either made from different solutions of (E.), or have a different arrangement of diagonals in the $\\frac{n}{h}$ imposed polygons.\n\nNow every $hi$-ly irreversible $(1+k)$-partition of the $r$-gon has $\\frac{2n}{hi}$, and no more, of these sequences; for it has a different $i$-ple sequence of $\\frac{n}{h}$ vertices commencing at every one of $\\frac{n}{hi}$ successive vertices, and no more, reading always in one direction, because the sequence beginning at the $\\left(\\frac{n}{hi}+1\\right)$th vertex is identical with that commencing at the first; and this $i$-ple sequence of $\\frac{n}{h}$ vertices is $h$ times repeated in the circuit, because a simple sequence\nis $hi$ times repeated. And as the $hi$-ly irreversible has the same sequences reversed on its other face, giving $\\frac{n}{hi}$ different aspects which we have all constructed as read from the first side of the $n$-gon in one direction, we have had this same $hi$-ly irreversible $2n:hi$ times before us among our results.\n\nAgain, every $hi$-ly reversible $(1+k)$-partitioned $r$-gon has been $\\frac{n}{hi}$ times brought before us in our $\\Sigma \\Delta_n$ constructions. For this has a different $i$-ple sequence reversible or irreversible of $\\frac{n}{h}$ vertices of the $n$-gonal nucleus commencing at any one of $\\frac{n}{hi}$ successive vertices, and we never see a sequence repeated in it till we have read over an interval equal to that between two alternate axes, that is an interval of $\\frac{n}{hi}$ sides of the $n$-gon (art. V.). This $i$-ple sequence is $h$ times repeated in the circuit of the $r$-gon; so that we have counted this $hi$-ly reversible $\\frac{n}{hi}$ times among those constructed from equation (E.).\n\nWherefore\n\n$$\\Sigma \\Delta_n = \\Sigma \\left[ \\frac{2n}{hi} I^{hi}(r, k)_n + \\frac{n}{hi} R^{hi}(r, k)_n \\right], \\text{ and}$$\n\n$$I^h(r, k)_n = \\frac{h}{2n} \\left( \\Sigma \\Delta_n - \\Sigma \\left( \\frac{2n}{h(i+1)} I^{(i+1)h}(r, k)_n + \\frac{n}{hi} R^{hi}(r, k)_n \\right) \\right), \\quad (i > 0).$$\n\nLXV. The highest value of $h$ in (E.) comes from putting the subindex $\\frac{n}{h}=1$, or $h=n$. This gives\n\n$$I^n(r, k)_n = \\frac{1}{2} \\left\\{ D\\left(\\frac{r+n}{n}, \\frac{k-n}{n}\\right) - R^n(r, k)_n \\right\\},$$\n\na given number, since $R^n(r, k)_n$ is found in our register.\n\nNext putting $\\frac{n}{h}=2$, or whatever next factor $n$ may have, we can obtain $I^h(r, k)_n$ for every value of $h>1$ that is a divisor of the three numbers $r$, $k$ and $n$.\n\nSince $h>1$, $n>2$, $r$, $k$ and $n$ are none of them prime; the only values of $I^h(8, k)_n$ that give them all divisible by $h$, and $k\\neq 8-3$, are\n\n$$I^2(8, 2)_6, I^2(8, 2)_4, I^2(8, 4)_4 \\text{ and } I^4(8, 4)_4.$$\n\nBy the last written formula,\n\n$$I^4(8, 4)_4 = \\frac{1}{2} \\{ D(3, 0) - R^4(8, 4)_4 \\} = \\frac{1}{2}(1-1)=0,$$\n\nfor $I^2(8, 2)_6$ we have three solutions, $\\left( \\frac{n}{h}=3 \\right)$\n\n$$8=6+2(1+0+0)=\\&c.$$ $$2=6+2(0-1-1)=\\&c.$$ giving $\\Sigma \\Delta_3 = 3D(3, 0)=3$, and as $R^2(8, 2)_6=1$,\n\n$$I^2(8, 2)_6 = \\frac{3}{8} \\{ 3 - \\frac{6}{3} R^2(8, 2)_6 \\} = \\frac{1}{4}(3-3)=0.$$\nFor $I^2(8, 2)_4$ we have $\\left(\\frac{n}{h} = 2\\right)$,\n\n$$8 = 4 + 2(1 + 1) = 4 + 2(2 + 0) = 4 + 2(0 + 2)$$\n$$2 = 4 + 2(0 - 1) = 4 + 2(-1 + 0)$$\n$$\\Sigma \\Delta_2 = 2D(4, 0) = 2,$$ and $R^2(8, 2)_4 = 1,$\n\n$$\\therefore I^2(8, 2)_4 = \\frac{3}{8}\\left\\{2 - \\frac{4}{2 \\cdot 1} \\cdot 1\\right\\} = 0.$$\n\nFor $I^2(8, 4)_4$ we have $\\left(\\frac{n}{h} = 2\\right)$,\n\n$$8 = 4 + 2(1 + 1) = 4 + 2(0 + 2) = 4 + 2(2 + 0)$$\n$$4 = 4 + 2(0 + 0) = 4 + 2(-1 + 1) = 4 + 2(1 - 1)$$\n$$\\Sigma \\Delta_2 = D(3, 0)D(3, 0) + 2D(4, 1) = 1 + 4 = 5,$$\n\nand $R^2(8, 4)_4 = 1$, whence\n\n$$I^2(8, 4)_4 = \\frac{3}{8}\\left\\{5 - \\frac{4}{2 \\cdot 2} \\cdot 1\\right\\} = 1,$$\n\nwhich is the only form of $I^2(8, k)_n$, for $h > 1$, $n > 2$.\n\nLXVI. Problem w. To find $I^2(r, k)_s$, the doubly irreversible $(1+k)$-partitions of the $r$-gon, which have a nucleus line.\n\nIt is proved in Theorems W and X, that these are all obtained by drawing a diameter $\\delta$ which is not an axis of reversion in one of the $r$-gons $I^{2m}(r, k-1)_n$ and $R^{2m}(r, k-1)_n$; and that any such diameter drawn in any one of these gives us one of $I^2(r, k)_s$. And it is evident that $\\delta$ is a diameter of the nucleus about which all is symmetrical (Cor. LXIII.).\n\nWhen no diameter of the nucleus is a diagonal axis of reversion of the $r$-gon, every diameter that can be drawn is such a line $\\delta$. Now in $I^{2h}(r, k-1)_n$ you may draw $\\delta$ from any one $\\theta$ of $\\frac{n}{2h}$ vertices of the nucleus, and from no more, because the configuration about $\\theta$ is repeated $2h$ times, about a vertex in each of the $2h$ repeated sequences. In a reversible partition no diameter of the nucleus is a diagonal axis of reversion, unless it be a clear axis. Therefore, in\n\n$$R^{2h}_{agdi}(r, k-1)_n + R^{2hagdi}_{ac}(r, k-1)_n + R^{2hag}(r, k-1)_n,$$\n\nwhether the axes be clear or not in the last one, you can draw $\\delta$ from any one of $\\frac{n}{4h}$ vertices of the $r$-gon; for none of the partitions in these classes have a clear diagonal axis, and each vertex $\\varepsilon$ in one of the $4h$ intervals between two adjacent axes begins a different sequence, which does not occur reverted till you come to $\\varepsilon'$, equidistant with $\\varepsilon$ from the axis between them. Wherefore\n\n$$I^2(r, k)_s = \\Sigma_h \\Sigma_n \\left\\{\\frac{n}{2h} I^{2h}(r, k-1)_n + \\frac{n}{4h} \\left(R^{2hagdi}_0 + R^{2hagdi}_{ac} + R^{2hag}\\right)(r, k-1)_n +$$\nAfter the \\(+\\) must come, first,\n\n\\[\n\\frac{n-2h}{4h}(R_{dc}^{2hagdi} + R_{ec}^{2hagdi} + R_{ae}^{2hagdi})(r, k-1)_n,\n\\]\n\nbecause \\(\\delta\\) cannot be drawn from any of the \\(2h\\) terminations of clear diagonal axes, but may be drawn to begin a certain sequence \\(4h\\) times from other vertices, once in the interval between the terminations of every adjacent pair of axes; and secondly,\n\n\\[\n+\\frac{n-4h}{4h}R_{ec}^{2hdhi}(r, k-1)_n\n\\]\n\nmust be added, because, omitting the \\(4h\\) terminations of clear diagonal axes, you can draw \\(\\delta\\) to begin a certain sequence \\(4h\\) times from the remaining vertices of the nucleus.\n\nTherefore, finally,\n\n\\[\nI^2(r, k)_s = \\sum_{n=2}^{n=2h}(r, k-1)_n + \\frac{n}{4h}(R_{dc}^{2hagdi}(r, k-1)_n + R_{ec}^{2hagdi}(r, k-1)_n + R_{ae}^{2hagdi}(r, k-1)_n) \\\\\n+ \\frac{n-2h}{4h}(R_{dc}^{2hagdi}(r, k-1)_n + R_{ec}^{2hagdi}(r, k-1)_n + R_{ae}^{2hagdi}(r, k-1)_n) + \\frac{n-4h}{4h}R_{ec}^{2hdhi}(r, k-1)_n;\n\\]\n\nwhere every value of \\(h > 0\\) and \\(n > 2\\) is included, that is found in our register, filled up by the formulae already given.\n\nLXVII. Hence, since we have found\n\n\\[\nR_{agdi}(8, 0)_s = R_{ag}(8, 2)_4 = R_{agdi}(8, 2)_6 = R_{agdi}(8, 4)_4 = I^2(8, 4)_4 = 1,\n\\]\n\\[\nI^2(8, 1)_2 = 0, R_{agdi}(8, 0)_s = 0,\n\\]\n\\[\nI^2(8, 3)_2 = \\frac{4}{4}R_{ag}(8, 2)_4 + \\frac{6-2}{4}R_{agdi}(8, 2)_6 = 2,\n\\]\n\\[\nI^2(8, 5)_2 = \\frac{4-4}{8}R_{agdi}(8, 4)_4 + \\frac{4}{3}.I^2(8, 4)_4 = 2.\n\\]\n\nLXVIII.

As a further illustration of these formulæ and their use, and for a comparison of methods, it will be worth our while to deduce the seven partitions of the 9-gon, and the eight partitions of the 10-gon, which are obtained by way of example in the memoir referred to, in the first article.\n\nFirst, to find $R^h(9, 6)$ and $I^h(9, 6)$.\n\nAs the 9-gon is divided into triangles, there can be only two nuclei, a triangle or a line. We ask, then, what are $R^h(9, 6)_3$ and $R^h(9, 6)_2$?\n\nBy Theorem E, the axes are monogonal only, and $R^{hmo}(9, 6)_3$ is what we are seeking.\n\nBy Problem m,\n\n$$R^{3mo}(9, 6)_3 = 0,$$\n\n$$R^{1.mo}(9, 6)_3 = D(5, 2) = 5;$$\n\nand by Problem n,\n\n$$R^{2mo}(9, 6)_3 = (2R^{mag} + R^{magdi})(4, 1) = 0,$$\n\n$R^{2adi}(4, 1)_3 = 1$ being the only entry in our register under $(4, 1)$.\n\nFor $R^{mo}(9, 6)_3$, we have, by equations (D'), $\\frac{n-h}{2h} = 1 = h.$\n\n$$9 = 3 + 2 + 2a_0 + 2a_1,$$\n\n$$6 = 3 + e_0 + 2e_1,$$\n\n$$4 + 2a_0 = 8 - 2a_1,$$\n\n$$\\Delta_1 = D(2 + a_1, e_1),$$\n\n$$e_0 = 3 - 2e_1,$$\n\n$$R^{mo}(9, 6)_3 = \\Sigma \\left\\{ \\Sigma (2R^{mag} + R^{magdi})(8 - 2a_1, 3 - 2e_1) \\right\\} D(2 + a_1, e_1).$$\n\nThe only values of $e_1$ are 0 or 1; if $e_1 = 1$, $a_1 \\neq 2$, if $e_1 = 0$, $a_1 \\neq 1$. And as we have nothing in our register under $(R^{mag}$ or $R^{magdi})((4, 1)$ or $(6, 3))$,\n\n$$R^{mo}(9, 6)_3 = 0,$$\n\nand (Problems o, p, q)\n\n$$R(9, 6)_2 = 0;$$\n\nwherefore\n\n$$R(9, 6) = R^{mo}(9, 6)_3 = 5.$$\n\nNext to find $I^h(9, 6)_3$; by Problem u,\n\n$$I^h(9, 6)_3 = \\frac{1}{2} \\left\\{ D(4, 1) - R^3(9, 6)_3 \\right\\} = \\frac{1}{2}(2 - 0) = 1,$$\n\nthe subtracted term having just been proved to be zero.

If the indulgent reader will kindly correct the sixth and seventh lines thus,\n\\[ I(10, 2) = 2 \\cdot \\frac{3}{2} \\{ ii(8, 2, 0), ii(4, 1, 0) \\} + 1 \\cdot ii(8, 2, 0) = 2 \\cdot \\frac{3}{2} (4 - 2) + 4 = 6, \\]\n\nhe will find the sum\n\n\\[ I(10, 2) + I(10, 3) + I(10, 4) = 6 + 13 + 2 = 21, \\]\n\n\\[ I^3(10, 3) = 1, \\]\n\nand\n\n\\[ R(10, 2) + R(10, 4) = 5, \\]\n\nthe 7-partitions of the nonagon, in that notation, as we have just found them: vide (I) of this memoir.\n\nLXXI.

And in $R_e^{hd}(10, 7-e)_6$, $h$ is either 1 or 3. For $h=3$ the formula for $R_{3ndi}$ gives $R_{3di}(10, 7-e)_6=0$, because $\\frac{10+6}{6}$ is not integer; and for $h=1$, $\\frac{n}{2h}=3$,\n\n$$10 = 6 + 2(a_1 + a_2 + a_3)$$\n\n$$7 - e = 6 + 2(e_1 + e_2 + e_3);$$\n\nthe solutions are\n\n$$\\frac{10-6}{2} = 2 = 1 + 1 + 0, \\text{ or } = 2 + 0 + 0$$\n\n$$1 - e = 2(0 + 0 - 1), \\text{ or } = 2(1 - 1 - 1), \\text{ or } = 2(0 - 1 - 1),$$\n\nthe second line of which is absurd, if $e < 3$. But for $e > 2$, the multiplier $\\left(\\frac{6-2}{2}\\right)^{3l-1}=0$. Therefore $n$ is not 6.\n\nLet then $n=4$, and seek $R_e^{hd}(10, 7-e)_4$, for $h$ odd. If $\\frac{4}{2h}=1$, the formula for $R_{4ndi}$ gives $R_{4di}(10, 7-e)_4=0$, because $\\frac{10+4}{4}$ is not integer. Then $\\frac{4}{2h}=2$, $h=1$, and we have for $e=1$,\n\n$$10 = 4 + 2(2 + 1) = 4 + 2(3 + 0)$$\n\n$$6 = 4 + 2(1 + 0) = 4 + 2(2 - 1),$$\n\ngiving four solutions; and for $e=3$, the multiplier $\\left(\\frac{4-2}{2}\\right)^{el-1}$ vanishes. These four are then the only solutions, and\n\n$$\\Sigma(\\Delta_s)=2D(4, 1)D(3, 0)+2D(5, 2)=2(2+5)=14;$$\n\nwhence $$R_e^h(10, 6)_4=\\frac{1}{2}\\{14-\\Sigma_i(2R_e^{(i+1)di}+R_{4c}^{2di}+R_{4c, agdi}+R_{4c, digdi})(10, 6)_4\\}$$\n\nwhere $(i > 0)$.\n\nNow\n\n$R_e^{(i+1)di}(10, 6)_4=0$ (Problem l), because 10 and 6 and 4 have no common measure $2(i+1)$.\n\n$R_{4c}^{2di}(10, 6)_4=0$ (Problem k), because 10 is not divisible by 4.\n\n$R_{4c, agdi}(10, 6)_4=0$ (Problem b), because 10 is no multiple of $4i$.\n\n$R_{4c, digdi}(10, 6)_4=0$ (Problem c), because 10—4 is no multiple of $4i$.\n\nTherefore $$R_e^d(10, 6)_4=\\frac{1}{2}14=7=R_e^d(10, 7),$$\n\nand $$R(10, 7)=R_{di}(10, 7)_2+R_{6d}(10, 7)=2R_e^{di}(10, 6)_4=14.$$\n\nLXXII. We have next to determine $I^h(10, 7)$, $h > 1$.\n\nThe formulæ for $I^n$ (Problem u) give\n\n$$I^3(10, 7)_3=0,$$ because $\\frac{10+3}{3}$ is no integer.\nAnd (Problem w)\n\n\\[ I^2(10, 7)_2 = \\Sigma_n \\left\\{ \\frac{h}{2h} I^{2h}(10, 6)_n + \\frac{n}{4h} R_{2hagdi}(10, 6)_n \\right\\}, \\]\n\nthe quantities here omitted from the formula being\n\n\\[ R_{2hagdi}(10, 6)_n = 0, \\text{ because } 10 \\text{ is not divisible by } 4h \\text{ (Problem e).} \\]\n\\[ R_{2hag}(10, 6)_n = 0, \\text{ for the same reason (Problems f, g, h).} \\]\n\\[ R_{2hagdi}(10, 6)_n = 0, \\text{ as it has been proved in the preceding article.} \\]\n\\[ R_{2hagdi}(10, 6)_n = 0, \\text{ because } 10 \\text{ is not divisible by } 4h \\text{ (Problem b).} \\]\n\\[ R_{2hagdi} = R_{2hagdi} = 0, \\text{ for the same reason (Problems k, l).} \\]\n\nNow the equations of Problem u for \\( I^{2h}(10, 6)_n \\) are those of Problem l for \\( R_e(10, 6)_n \\), and we have proved in the preceding article that \\( h = 1 \\) and \\( n = 4 \\) are the only values affording a solution; which gives\n\n\\[ \\Sigma(\\Delta_n) = \\Sigma(\\Delta_2) = 14. \\]\n\nWherefore (Problem w) \\((i > 0)\\),\n\n\\[ I^2(10, 6)_4 = \\frac{3}{8} \\left[ 14 - \\Sigma_i \\left( \\frac{8}{2(i+1)} I^{(i+1)2}(10, 6)_4 + \\frac{4}{2i} R^2(10, 6)_4 \\right) \\right]. \\]\n\nThe formula for \\( I^n(r, k)_n \\) shows that \\( I^4(10, 6)_4 = 0 \\), for \\( \\frac{10+4}{4} \\) is not integer, and we have just proved that \\( R^{2h}(10, 6)_n = 0 \\) under every form except \\( R_{2hagdi}(10, 6)_n \\), which remains to be determined.\n\nIn Problem d we see that \\( r - n - 2h \\) is divisible by \\( 4h \\); wherefore \\( n = 4 \\) and \\( h = 1 \\).\n\nTherefore, by the formula for \\( R_{2hagdi} \\),\n\n\\[ R_{2hagdi}(10, 6)_4 = \\Sigma_m R_{m, mo}(5, 2) = R_{mo}(5, 2) = 1, \\]\n\nas is easily verified. Consequently\n\n\\[ I^2(10, 6)_4 = \\frac{3}{8} \\left[ 14 - \\frac{4}{2} R_{2agdi}(10, 6)_4 \\right] = \\frac{14 - 2}{4} = 3, \\]\n\nand\n\n\\[ I^2(10, 7)_2 = I^2(10, 7)_2 = \\frac{4}{3} I^2(10, 6)_4 + \\frac{4}{4} R_{2agdi}(10, 6)_4 = 6 + 1 = 7, \\]\n\nwhence, finally (Problem x),\n\n\\[ I(10, 7) = \\frac{1}{30} \\{ D(10, 7) - \\frac{1}{10} R(10, 7) - \\frac{2}{2} I^2(10, 7) \\} = \\frac{1}{30} (1430 - 10.14 - 10.7) = 61. \\]\n\nAnd this enumeration of the 8-partitions of the 10-gon agrees with that at p. 410 of my memoir mentioned in the first article.\n\nIt is evident that this last example would have caused far less trouble, if we had had our register of partitions filled up for inspection up to the 7-partitions of the 10-gon.\n\nThere is little difficulty, as I have verified to some extent, in framing, by the aid of the results here given, algebraical expressions, containing circulating functions for \\( R^k(r, k) \\) and \\( I^k(r, k) \\), in terms of \\( r \\) and \\( k \\) only, and thence by addition, complete expressions of the \\((1-k)\\)-partitions of the \\( r \\)-gon. But the subject has been pursued far enough for one communication.\nLXXIII. The notation above employed for the partitions of the $r$-gon is applicable, with hardly any change, to express those of the $r$-ace.\n\nAn $h$-ly reversible $(1+k)$-partition of the $r$-ace has $h$ axial planes of reversion, which are achorial, diachorial, or monochorial, according as they cut none, two, or one only of the faces ($\\chi \\omega \\pi \\alpha$) about the $r$-ace. The $k$ partitioning lines may conveniently be called diapipeds, or shorter, diapeds, being each in two planes about the $r$-ace, as a diagonal is in two summits of the $r$-gon.\n\nPutting Ac, Di, and Mo, for achorial, diachorial and monochorial, we have the following account to give, $N$ standing for the nucleus $n$-ace, of the $(1+k)$-partitions of the $r$-ace:\n\n$$R^{2h.Ac.Di}(r,k)_N = R^{2h.ag.di}(r,k)_n,$$\n\n$$R^{h.Ac}(r,k)_N = R^{h.ag}(r,k)_n,$$\n\n$$R^{h.Di}(r,k)_N = R^{h.di}(r,k)_n,$$\n\n$$R^{h.Mo}(r,k)_N = R^{h.mo}(r,k)_n,$$\n\n$$I^h(r,k)_N = I^h(r,k)_n.$$",
