Abstract

The mechanical procedure of paper folding generates an uncountable family of infinite sequences of fold patterns. We obtain the associated Fourier series and show that the sequences are almost periodic and hence deterministic. Further, we show that paper folding numbers defined by the sequences are all transcendental.
