Thank you for your detailed and informative response. I shall take time to
study it and the references that you provide.
You are welcome.
In short, one can use any mathematically irrational number and work it back to
How might one display the time signature 8 + 2 sqrt(5) over 8, and the tuplet
1:1 + sqrt(5), where “sqrt is the square root sign? - It is for experimenting
with a popular meter in 12 [1-2].

This can be done in LilyPond without using LaTeX:
\version 2.19.6
{
\override Staff.TimeSignature.stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\override Staff.TimeSignature.text =
\markup \override #'(baseline-skip . 0) \center-column \number {
\concat {

I have made an example incorporating your code; it looks pretty neat. For the
midi, I wrote out the ornaments in a separate version using the 5/3 ratio, so
as to be closer to

Oops, a typo in the code: the tuplets should be 2:(1+sqrt 5) - I forgot to
change in your code. So hope it’s OK now.

Tying this back to LilyPond, the graphical representation will look the same,
only that the meter and the tuplet numbers are changed. There is another
problem in the MIDI file: how to make a better approximation than 3:2. The next
is 5:3, but then one

Do you know of other instances of this ratio in music?

I’m not sure whether I understood correctly, but instead of writing something
like
\tuplet 3/2 { c8 d e }
and hiding the tuplet number (and bracket), you can simply write
c8*2/3 d e
I haven’t used that latter notation,
