  "abstract": "This paper is the second part of a study on quasi-figurate numbers. The first part, \"Infinite Subsets of Quasi-Figurate Numbers: Tables and Formulas for Construction. Part One\", is available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.23537119.\n\nThis paper investigates the periodicity of quasi-figurate numbers — infinite families of numerical sequences obtained by iteratively adding a chosen figurate series (written from zero) to the natural numbers — for large indices n.\n\nFor k = 10 (the base of the decimal system), the decimal notation of f_n(10) contains a repeating block of 9 digits determined by the fraction (m−2) / 81, where m is the gonality of the offset. A summary table of blocks for m = 3, …, 13 is given. For m = 9q + 2, the block is a repunit (a number consisting of repeated 1s, 2s, 3s, …), confirmed numerically for m = 11, 20, 29, 38.\n\nFor k &ne; 10, no block is visible in decimal notation, but periodicity does not disappear: it passes into the ratio f_(n+k−1)(k) / f_n(k), which tends to k^(k−1) as n &rarr; &infin;. This is confirmed numerically for k = 3, …, 15 (at n = 100), with the difference decreasing exponentially.\n\nAll observations are obtained numerically; Python/SageMath code for reproducing the tables and checks is included. The observations are stated as numerical results, not as theorems.",
