Can Pure Math Grow a Diamond Snowflake?

BEHIND THE WORK

Can a single mathematical line grow an intricate hexagonal ice crystal with zero human intervention? Governed by D6 dihedral crystal invariants and self-similar dendritic branching at exact 60-degree intervals, this diamond snowflake traces tiered chevron needles, intermediate star spurs, and faceted spearheads in one continuous unbroken trajectory with exact 0.000mm periodic closure.

THE MATHEMATICAL RULE

\text{Sector replication and linear edge interpolation}

R_k=\begin{pmatrix}\cos(k\pi/3)&-\sin(k\pi/3)&0\\\sin(k\pi/3)&\cos(k\pi/3)&0\\0&0&1\end{pmatrix},\quad k=0,\ldots,5

\mathbf Q_{k,j}=R_k\mathbf P_j,\quad\mathbf P_j\in\text{stored sector vertices}

\mathbf q(\lambda)=(1-\lambda)\mathbf Q_i+\lambda\mathbf Q_{i+1},\quad0\leq\lambda\leq1
