The link between numerical representation and finger representation has been established in different studies and experiments.
The finger representation in the cortex was volumetrically localized using a wavelet based beamformer.
Our results indicate that this bimanual finger representation differed fundamentally from the ipsilateral finger representation observed during unimanual actions.
For bimanual actions, the ipsilateral finger representation was located further away from the central sulcus than the contralateral representation.
For bimanual actions, we found clear evidence for a second type of ipsilateral finger representation in premotor and parietal cortices.
Thus, it is possible that there is an independent ipsilateral finger representation in this region, which would become more clearly visible for more complex actions.

Somewhat related, it has been shown that finger representations get internalized especially in the first years of schooling.
MNS elicited a displacement of the center of gravity for the thumb movement representation towards the other finger representations within S1.
These results indicate that MNS leads to an expansion of the thumb representation towards other finger representations within S1, a form of plasticity that may underlie the influence of SS on motor cortical function, possibly supporting beneficial effects on motor control.
On the contrary, asynchronous stimulation evoked a segregation of the corresponding finger representations (Pilz et al 2004).
Indeed, using this method, we were able to show finger representations in the inferior cerebellum, which lack any discernable somatotopic organization for individual fingers (Wiestler et al. 2011).
