The aesthetic pleasure that mathematical physicists tend to experience in Einstein's theory of general relativity has been attributed (by Paul Dirac, among others) to its "great mathematical beauty". [13] The beauty of mathematics is experienced when the physical reality of objects are represented by mathematical models.

The mathematician and architectural theorist Nikos Salingaros suggests that the "powerful presence" [58] (aesthetic effect) of a "great carpet" [58] such as the best Konya two-medallion carpets of the 17th century is created by mathematical techniques related to the theories of the architect Christopher Alexander. These techniques include ...

A detail from a non-integer Multibrot set. There are many different kinds of fractal images. They can be subdivided into several groups. Fractals derived from standard geometry by using iterative transformations on an initial common figure like a straight line (the Cantor dust or the von Koch curve), a triangle (the Sierpinski triangle), or a cube (the Menger sponge).
The name "Borromean rings" comes from the use of these rings, in the form of three linked circles, in the coat of arms of the aristocratic Borromeo family in Northern Italy. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] The link itself is much older and has appeared in the form of the valknut , three linked equilateral triangles with parallel sides, on Norse image stones ...
