Fractal geometry investigates complex shapes that exhibit self-similarity across multiple scales, while spectral analysis focuses on the study of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of operators, most ...

Ustwo has created a work of art in its Escher-inspired puzzle game, Monument Valley. Designer Ken Wong gives CNET an inside look at where it came from. Michelle Starr is CNET's science editor, and she ...

Students investigate fractals, learn how fractals can be used to determine the length of a coastline, and explore the expression of mathematical principles in art. state some of the characteristics of ...

We’re finding infinitely complex, self-similar shapes all over creation. And we’re just getting started. The world is full of beautiful geometry. It’s something we start teaching our youngest children ...

Fifty years ago, “fractal” was born. In a 1975 book, the Polish-French-American mathematician Benoit B. Mandelbrot coined the term to describe a family of rough, fragmented shapes that fall outside ...

You may not be able to define “fractal” — yet — but fractals are, in fact, everywhere. As you might expect from hearing her title, Hayley Brazier, Donald M. Kerr curator of natural history at the High ...

It has long been observed that many plants produce leaves, shoots, or flowers in spiral patterns. Cauliflower provides a unique example of this phenomenon, because those spirals repeat at several ...
