Most musicians have seen fractal images-those hauntingly beautiful pictures generated through mathematical equations. But how many people are aware that the same equations can be used to create ...

By folding fractals into 3-D objects, a mathematical duo hopes to gain new insight into simple equations.

This is not the first time that images and concepts from advanced mathematics have appeared in farmers' fields. Crop circle designs containing fractal patterns (such as the Mandelbrot set) have ...

These images were created using mathematical equations only! Uncover the magic of math turning equations into stunning visuals, from heart shapes to mesmerizing fractals. Read on to see how ...

Many fractals, like the Mandelbrot set above, come from intricate mathematical equations. But some are much simpler and easier to construct.

It wasn't until leaving the field in 2003, and becoming a professional photographer that he reconsidered fractal art, which involves using mathematical equations to create art.

The exhibit uses fractals -- mathematical equations represented as infinitely repeating shapes and patterns. Horsthuis runs the equations through the software Mandelbulb 3D, which then manifests ...

“Fractal geometry is not just a chapter of mathematics,” Mandelbrot said, “but one that helps Everyman to see the same world differently.” ...

The most famous fractal equation is the 2D Mandelbrot set, named after the mathematician Benoît Mandelbrot of Yale University, who coined the name “fractals” for the resulting shapes in 1975.

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 ...
