La geometria frattale permette di caratterizzare le strutture complesse e irregolari che godono della proprietà di invarianza di scala. Introdotta da Mandelbrot nel 1975, spiega in modo convincente che la natura ci pone di fronte a molti esempi di strutture complesse che godono …

The concept of fractals is often considered to describe surface roughness. Fractals retain all the structural information and are characterized by a single descriptor, the fractal dimension, D. Fractal dimension is an intrinsic property of the surface and independent of the filt…

The late research scientist who revolutionized visual geometry traces his early life as member of a Lithuanian Jewish family in twentieth-century Warsaw, his education in Europe and America, and his affiliations with IBM, Harvard, and Yale.

"We begin with [Mandelbrot's] early years: born in Warsaw to a Lithuanian Jewish family, [he] moved with his family to Paris in the 1930s, where he was mentored by an eminent mathematician uncle [Szolem Mandelbrot]. During World War II he stayed barely one step ahead of the Nazi…
