Hierarchical Filling of N-Dimensional Spaces
The hierarchical filling of the n-dimensional space with geometric figures is studied, accompanied by a process of discrete similar changes in their sizes, that is, process of scaling. The scaling process in these fillings does not depend on time and is determined only by the geometric characteristics of the figures, which are preserved when their size is changed. Two possible ways of hierarchical filling of space are defined, under which the original figure incrementally increases its size fills the space. Investigations of the hierarchical filling of concrete geometric figures of a plane, three-dimensional space, four- and five-dimensional spaces are carried out. The denominator of geometric progressions characterizing sequences of figures in the process of scaling are determined depending on the shape of the figure and its dimension.
