  2. Misiurewicz point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misiurewicz_point

    A preperiodic orbit. In mathematics, a Misiurewicz point is a parameter value in the Mandelbrot set (the parameter space of complex quadratic maps) and also in real quadratic maps of the interval [1] for which the critical point is strictly pre-periodic (i.e., it becomes periodic after finitely many iterations but is not periodic itself).

    Michał Misiurewicz (born 9 November 1948 [1]) is a Polish mathematician. He is known for his contributions to chaotic dynamical systems and fractal geometry , notably the Misiurewicz point . Misiurewicz participated in the International Mathematical Olympiad for Poland, winning a bronze medal in 1965 and a gold medal (with perfect score and ...

    Try any non-real Misiurewicz point and magnify at many levels, and you'll see things turning, perhaps slowly. -- I also added a sentence on 'interior points of arcs'; these are indeed difficult to see, but they are there nonetheless (such as the common endpoints of the rays at angles 5/12 and 7/12: I think you can make such pictures yourself).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_curve

    Heighway dragon curve. A dragon curve is any member of a family of self-similar fractal curves, which can be approximated by recursive methods such as Lindenmayer systems.The dragon curve is probably most commonly thought of as the shape that is generated from repeatedly folding a strip of paper in half, although there are other curves that are called dragon curves that are generated differently.

    Point Park is situated about half a mile from Point State Park, the university's namesake, in the city's Golden Triangle. The school is in the midst of the business district, near both PPG Place (one of the most recognizable buildings in the city’s skyline) and the relatively new LEED Platinum Certified headquarters of PNC Financial Services .

    Michał Misiurewicz, Polish mathematician known for his contributions to chaotic dynamical systems and fractal geometry, notably the Misiurewicz point. [76] Andrzej Grzegorczyk, Polish mathematician; he introduced the Grzegorczyk hierarchy – a subrecursive hierarchy that foreshadowed computational complexity theory.

    A 4K UHD 3D Mandelbulb video A ray-marched image of the 3D Mandelbulb for the iteration v ↦ v 8 + c. The Mandelbulb is a three-dimensional fractal, constructed for the first time in 1997 by Jules Ruis and further developed in 2009 by Daniel White and Paul Nylander using spherical coordinates.
