If one creates a scatter plot of Pythagorean triples, then patterns emerge in the form of parabolas of point densities. Albert Fässler and others provide insights into the significance of these parabolas in the context of conformal mappings.<ref>[http://conservancy.umn.edu/handle/4878 1988 Preprint] See Figure 2 on page 3., later published as
