序成六虚上下,数生太极乾坤--今本《周易》卦序排列数学规律三探

今本<周易>序卦是一件完美的数学作品.序卦的分布规律体现于一系列的数列之中,但是,假如这些排列规律彼此间缺乏关联性,显得孤立、分散,便难以真正体现序卦排列的数学规律性.经过更深入的研究,笔者发现这些排列规律并非彼此分散、互不相干的,而是互有关联,整合成一个完美的统一体.序卦排列数学规律其鲜明的特点有四:其一是连续性,其二是周期性,其三是对称性,其四是关联性.连续性、周期性体现其简易性,对称性、关联性体现其统一性.简易性、统一性体现其完美性.

On the mathematical regularity of the order of the hexagrams of Zhouyi in the received version

The Orderly Sequence of the Hexagrams in the received version of Zhouyi is a perfect mathematical works, by which the regulations for the hexagrams arrangement are exhibited in a series of sequence of numbers. But, if these regulations are irrelative, separated, and dispersed, the mathematical regularity of the arrangement will not be revealed. Through a study in depth, I find that these regulations are neither mutually separated nor irrelative, but correlated, being incorporated into a perfect entity. This is manifested as the following four characteristics: continuity, cyclicity, symmetricity, and correlativity. The former two characteristics embody its principle of simplicity, while the latter two reveals its perfection.
