Abstract

Computations on the sandpile model lead to questions concerning discrete behaviors. It is shown that the original question has an answer which is not helpful for the study of sandpiles. A variation of the question, using periodic solutions, leads to better answers. These might have an interpretation for the study of sandpiles.
