A note on friezes of type $\Lambda_p$

Combinatorics 2020-03-17 v2

Abstract

A frieze is an array of numbers obeying the unimodular rule. Coxeter showed that a frieze with integer entries corresponds to a triangulation. Recently, Holm and J{\o}rgenson introduced friezes of type Λp\Lambda_p which correspond to pp-angulations of a polygon. In this paper we explore the connection between these two types of friezes; in particular we show that the friezes of type Λp\Lambda_p for p=4p=4 and p=6p=6 contain integral friezes within them. We also consider the relationships with Farey graphs.
