Extractions: The Mandelbrot set , named after its discoverer, is a famous example of a fractal. The Mandelbrot set , named after its discoverer, is a famous example of a fractal. A fractal is a geometric object which is rough or irregular on all scales of length, and so which appears to be 'broken up' in a radical way. Some of the best examples can be divided into parts, each of which is similar to the original object. Fractals are said to possess infinite detail, and they may actually have a self-similar structure that occurs at different levels of magnification. In many cases, a fractal can be generated by a repeating pattern, in a typically recursive or iterative process. The term fractal was coined in by Beno®t Mandelbrot , from the Latin fractus or "broken". Before Mandelbrot coined his term, the common name for such structures (the Koch snowflake , for example) was monster curve Fractals of many kinds were originally studied as mathematical objects. Fractal geometry is the branch of mathematics which studies the properties and behaviour of fractals. It describes many situations which cannot be explained easily by classical geometry, and has often been applied in science technology , and computer-generated art . The conceptual roots of fractals can be traced to attempts to measure the size of objects for which traditional definitions based on Euclidean geometry or calculus fail.

Extractions: Science and geometry have always progressed hand in hand. In the 17th century, Johannes Kepler found that he could represent the orbits of the planets around the Sun by ellipses. This stimulated Isaac Newton to explain these elliptical orbits as following from the law of gravity. Similarly, the back-and-forth motion of a perfect pendulum is represented by a sine wave. Simple dynamics used to be associated with simple geometrical shapes. This kind of mathematical picture implies a smooth relationship between an object's form and the forces acting on it. In the examples of the planets and the pendulum, it also implies that the physics is deterministic, meaning that you can predict the future of these systems from their past. Two recent developments have deeply affected the relationship between geometry and physics, however. The first comes from the recognition that nature is full of something called deterministic chaos. There are many apparently simple physical systems in the Universe that obey deterministic laws but nevertheless behave unpredictably . A pendulum acting under two forces, for example.

Dickau Mandelbrot Set The term Mandelbrot set is used to refer both to a general class of fractal sets and to a particular instance of such a set. In general, a Mandelbrot set marks the set of points in the complex plane such that the corresponding Julia set is connected and not computable "The" Mandelbrot set is the set obtained from the quadratic recurrence equation with , where points in the complex plane for which the orbit of does not tend to infinity are in the set . Setting equal to any point in the set that is not a periodic point gives the same result. The Mandelbrot set was originally called a molecule by Mandelbrot. J. Hubbard and A. Douady proved that the Mandelbrot set is connected . Shishikura (1994) proved that the boundary of the Mandelbrot set is a fractal with Hausdorff dimension 2. However, it is not yet known if the Mandelbrot set is pathwise-connected. If it is pathwise-connected, then Hubbard and Douady's proof implies that the Mandelbrot set is the image of a

The object need not exhibit exactly the same structure at all scales, but the same "type" of structures must appear on all scales. A plot of the quantity on a log-log graph versus scale then gives a straight line, whose slope is said to be the fractal dimension . The prototypical example for a fractal is the length of a coastline measured with different length rulers .

Extractions: Enter search term Fractals: Mandelbrot and Julia Sets by Wernher Krutein S even years ago my friend Mathemetecian/Computer Wiz/Space-Cadet-at-large, Mark Burstein, told me about this bold new branch of mathematics called Fractals. From that moment on I went completly crazy on the visual exploration of the wondrous multi-dimensional world of these Fractals. The Mandelbrot and Julia subsets have some of the most rewarding moments of discovery of the many landscapes and environments that these mathematical functions can create. I believe that we have only just begun to understand and apply fractals into our everday living. What is a Fractal? A fractal is a kind of repeating structure displaying properties of self similarity. This means taht you can explore a Fractal shape itno virtualy any depth of magnification and you will come across many similar shapes of the original. Fractals were discovered by Benoit B. Mandelbrot who decided to name this bold new area of mathematics "Fractals". He chose that word from the Latin word fractus, which means "to break". Some of the most typical fractals are: flowers water , clouds, trees, waves , smoke, flames lightning leaves galaxies , etc.

http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Mandelbrot.html

Extractions: Version for printing Benoit Mandelbrot was largely responsible for the present interest in fractal geometry. He showed how fractals can occur in many different places in both mathematics and elsewhere in nature. Mandelbrot was born in Poland in 1924 into a family with a very academic tradition. His father, however, made his living buying and selling clothes while his mother was a doctor. As a young boy, Mandelbrot was introduced to mathematics by his two uncles. Hadamard in this post, took responsibility for his education. In fact the influence of Szolem Mandelbrojt was both positive and negative since he was a great admirer of Hardy and Hardy 's philosophy of mathematics. This brought a reaction from Mandelbrot against pure mathematics, although as Mandelbrot himself says, he now understands how Hardy 's deep felt pacifism made him fear that applied mathematics, in the wrong hands, might be used for evil in time of war.

Extractions: The whole calculation is based on the behaviour of recursive formulas with complex numbers (numbers in the form a + bj where j=sqrt(-1) i.e. defined square root of -1). Similar the number straight line of real numbers (our normal, ordinary numbers like 1, 2, 3, 4.766, 3.1415926... etc.), all complex numbers form a plane, the Gauss's number plane called from the famous mathematician Carl-Friederich Gauss (1777-1855). Each one of these picture are resulted from the simple formula where z(0) (start value) is the picture constant, c the point of the plane. The number of iterations will counted until the condition depth of computation xmax [e.g. 1000] to avoid an endless loop during the computing process). This procedure will be taken on each point (screen pixel on the computer), so they form these pictures at the finish of computation. This chaotic behaviour was already discovered from the French mathematician Gaston Julia but his knowledge's found only a further interest since the age of graphic computers.

Extractions: Kheper Home Topics Index Esotericism Kheper Forum ... Guestbook The universe around us is not linear but fractal in nature. That is, we see the same pattern appearing time and again, no matter what the scale it is examined on. Look at a river with its tributories. Each tributory is itself a river, with smaller tributories, which in turn are themselves rivers with smaller tributories, and so on down to creeks. Or a fern frond; the main frond of which consists of a two rows of sub-fronds, each of which consists of two rows of smaller fronds or leaves. Or the pattern of a coastline: bays and peninsulas contain smaller bays and peninsulars, right down to grains of sand. Fractals were discovered and described by a mathematician by the name of Benoit Mandelbrot simple fractals The Koch Snowflake The classic fractal; a mathematical equation named after its discover, Benoit Mandelbrot. What makes this equation interesting is that it is recursive; that is, it continually refers back to itself, so that each successive step employs as one of its parameters the outcome of the preceding step. When the Mandelbrot equation is fed into a computer, and the computer is instructed to paint the various points that arise on a screen or a print-out, the most astonishing patterns emerge.

Extractions: Fractals are well-known in rave art, popular culture and even the occasional movie. But what are they, where do they come from and what are we going to do with them now they are here? In order to cover fractals in any meaningful way, I am going to first examine what lies behind them. The first, and most important, of these elements is "Chaos Theory" , a branch of mathematics that is rather better known than it is understood. Chaos Theory covers a class of mathematical systems that don't follow the usual rules. (Anarchistic equations!) Normally, mathematical functions are relatively well-behaved. You can find the gradient at a given point, for example. If you change the values you start with (your initial conditions) by just a little, you will change the values you end up with by just a little and in a predictable way. Chaotic systems, on the other hand, throw the rules out the window, without opening the window first. For small enough initial conditions, they behave themselves and generally go to some steady state value. As you increase the values, though, something happens. The system will start to oscillate with period 2. Keep increasing the value, and it stays at that frequency, until you cross a specific threshold. Then the frequency doubles. It keeps on doing this, with the intervals getting shorter each time. Translated into English, this means that if you take some function and then use the results as the new inputs to the same function, it will first bounce between two values. Then, as you increase the initial conditions, it will bounce between four possible values. Then eight, sixteen, thirty-two and so on. It will always be a power of two and it will always be in that order.
