Adding to its prestige, the Foreword of Fractal Holographic Universe was penned by the esteemed Philomath, Robert Edward Grant. Grant, known for his profound insights into mathematics, art, and ...

Benoit Mandelbrot, the mathematics professor at Yale University who coined the word "fractal," passed away Oct. 14 at the age of 85. His death recalls the complicated history of his life's work -- the ...

Benoit Mandelbrot, who died last week at 85, was to math what Carl Sagan was to astrophysics. He wasn’t just a researcher; he popularized scientific thought. And he’s best known for bringing fractal ...

Researchers have found a fractal pattern underlying everyday math. In the process, they’ve discovered a way to calculate partition numbers, a challenge that’s stymied mathematicians for centuries.

While working on a second college degree in the 1980s, Don Bristow came across a book called “The Fractal Geometry of Nature.” The book’s purpose was to show that fractals — geometric shapes with ...

Physicists recently "put the nail in the coffin" in the debate about using fractal analysis in authenticating art as they completed a second study related to fractal analysis and Jackson Pollock's ...

Frax, a new iOS app, leverages the computational oomph in your new iPhone to make dizzying detailed mathematical art. Frax, to its credit, leans right into the “ooh, neat colors!” aspect of fractal ...

The term “mathematical art” usually conjures up images of M.C. Escher’s endless staircases, Möbius-strip ants, and mind-boggling tilings. Or it might remind one of the intimate intertwining of ...
