  2. Mandelbrot set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandelbrot_set

    A mosaic made by matching Julia sets to their values of c on the complex plane. The Mandelbrot set is a map of connected Julia sets. As a consequence of the definition of the Mandelbrot set, there is a close correspondence between the geometry of the Mandelbrot set at a given point and the structure of the corresponding Julia set. For instance ...

    John Hamal Hubbard (born October 6 or 7, 1945) is an American mathematician and professor at Cornell University and the Université de Provence.He is known for the mathematical contributions he made with Adrien Douady in the field of complex dynamics, including a study of the Mandelbrot set.

  4. Connectedness locus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connectedness_locus

    Without doubt, the most famous connectedness locus is the Mandelbrot set, which arises from the family of complex quadratic polynomials : = +The connectedness loci of the higher-degree unicritical families,

  5. Benoit Mandelbrot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benoit_Mandelbrot

    Section of a Mandelbrot set. Mandelbrot has been called an artist, and a visionary [37] and a maverick. [38] His informal and passionate style of writing and his emphasis on visual and geometric intuition (supported by the inclusion of numerous illustrations) made The Fractal Geometry of Nature accessible to non-specialists. The book sparked ...

  6. Chaos: Making a New Science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos:_Making_a_New_Science

    Chaos: Making a New Science was the first popular book about chaos theory. It describes the Mandelbrot set, Julia sets, and Lorenz attractors without using complicated mathematics.

    Benoit Mandelbrot: mathematician of Polish descent, known for developing a theory of "roughness and self-similarity" and significant contributions to fractal geometry and chaos theory; Mandelbrot set. [44] Krzysztof Matyjaszewski: chemist, who discovered atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). [45]

  8. Tan Lei - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tan_Lei

    Tan obtained important results about the Julia and Mandelbrot sets, in particular investigating their fractality and the similarities between the two. [pub 1] For example she showed that at the Misiurewicz points these sets are asymptotically similar through scaling and rotation.

  9. Fractal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal

    SierpiƄski Carpet - Infinite perimeter and zero area Mandelbrot set at islands The Mandelbrot set: its boundary is a fractal curve with Hausdorff dimension 2. (Note that the colored sections of the image are not actually part of the Mandelbrot Set, but rather they are based on how quickly the function that produces it diverges.)
