Karamanos K., unpublished (1998). In fact the pure m∞ sequences turn out to be self-similar under the repeated use of the replacements (21) and (22) of [16]. This means that Ln((Pm *)∞) = (Pm *)∞ for any finite n, where L is the operator defined in Sec 4 of [16] and * is the composition rule defined in [15]. This can be shown by a method similar to that used in [16]
