Let 
 be an Irrational Number, define 
, and let 
 be the sequence obtained by arranging the elements of 
 in increasing order.  A sequence 
is said to be a signature sequence if there Exists a Positive Irrational Number 
 such that
, and 
 is called the signature of 
.
The signature of an Irrational Number is a Fractal Sequence.  Also, if 
 is a signature sequence,
then the Lower-Trimmed Subsequence is 
.
