The quaternion (4-dimensional) Mandelbrot set is simply a solid of revolution of the 2-dimensional Mandelbrot set (in the j-k plane), and is therefore uninteresting to look at. [43] Taking a 3-dimensional cross section at d = 0 ( q = a + b i + c j + d k ) {\displaystyle d=0\ (q=a+bi+cj+dk)} results in a solid of revolution of the 2-dimensional ...
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 ...
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.
Mandelbrot may refer to: Benoit Mandelbrot (1924–2010), a mathematician associated with fractal geometry Mandelbrot set , a fractal popularized by Benoit Mandelbrot
Gaston Maurice Julia (3 February 1893 – 19 March 1978) was a French mathematician who devised the formula for the Julia set. His works were popularized by Benoit Mandelbrot; the Julia and Mandelbrot fractals are closely related. He founded, independently with Pierre Fatou, the modern theory of holomorphic dynamics.
According to Benoit Mandelbrot, "A fractal is by definition a set for which the Hausdorff-Besicovitch dimension strictly exceeds the topological dimension." [1] Presented here is a list of fractals, ordered by increasing Hausdorff dimension, to illustrate what it means for a fractal to have a low or a high dimension.
