By this I mean, any transformation from a fractal F to a
set of order pairs C, which does not result in an DAG,

G = (N, C) .

So, for an order pair (c_i, c_i+1), this means that for
the sum of two fractal numbers X and Y (resulting in Z):

Z_d_i = int[X_d_c_i + X_d_c_i + CarryIn_d_c_i % b]

and,

CarryIn_d_c_(i+1) = (X_d_c_i + X_d_(c_i) -
int[X_d_c_i + X_d_c_i + CarryIn_d_c_i % b]) / b

thus, because cycles do not exist, we can simply iterate
this process and calculate Z.

Just for example, in normal linear arithmetic,

C = ((0,1), (1,2), (2,3), (3,4), ...} ,

would be the carry-over flow (if we ignore fractional
numbers for the moment).

I'm fairly certain there is a more elegant way to express
this, but this is the best I could think of at the moment.

Correction:

"By this I mean, any transformation from a fractal F to a
set of order pairs C, which DOES result in an DAG,

G = (N, C) ."

of course , only the master ( me , tommy1729 ) and a handfull people not on sci.math know about this.

fractal fractions.

or also known as generalized continued fractions.
