Geometric and arithmetic relations concerning origami

Number Theory 2014-09-26 v2

Abstract

We present a formalization of geometric instruments that considers separately geometric and arithmetic aspects of them. We introduce the concept of tool, which formalizes a physical instrument as a set of axioms representing its geometric capabilities. We also define a map as a tool together with a set of points and curves as an initial reference. We rewrite known results using this new approach and give new relations between origami and other instruments, some obtained considering them as tools and others considering them as maps.
