Abstract
The flows generated by the iterative dynamics of triangle reflections are analyzed. These flows are interpreted as the adiabatic dynamics of probe particles within the fundamental domain of the modular group. Two specific cases of lattices are considered: (a) those generated by reflections of equilateral triangles, and (b) those generated by reflections of rectangular isosceles triangles. We demonstrate that the stationary points of the flows for equilateral and isosceles triangles correspond to the “Golden” and the “Silver” ratios, respectively.
