“…Since the formulation of the periodic system in the 1860s, the quest for understanding its structure has intensively motivated research in different areas of chemistry and physics. However, almost 150 years after its announcement, the different approaches from quantum chemistry [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11], group theory [12,13], clustering [11,14,15] and information theory [16,10], to name but a few [17,18], have not led to an unified picture [19]. Instead, they give insights on the possible chemical and physical causes of the patterns depicted by the system but have failed in providing a formal structure for it [19].…”
