I was reading Sawyer's Prelude to Mathematics, he says that there's one suposed nature's favourite pattern which is:
$\Delta^2V$
He also says that this pattern is found in a dozen areas: conection with gravitation, light,sound, heat, magnetism, electrostatics, electric currents, electromagnetic radiation, waves at the sea, the flight of aeroplanes, vibrations of elastic bodies and the mechanics of the atom.
So what is this pattern and how does it works?
