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 ...
A mathematician has developed a new way to uncover simple patterns that might underlie apparently complex systems, such as clouds, cracks in materials or the movement of the stockmarket. The method, ...

Don Bristow, IT Director at Bethesda Health Clinlic, talks about his art in front of section of the piece "Genesis" on Thursday at the clinic in Tyler. Bristow uses mathematical formula called ...
Mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot, who explored a new class of mathematical shapes known as fractals, has died aged 85. The French-American's seminal book, The Fractal Geometry of Nature, published in ...
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 ...
The mathematician Benoît Mandelbrot is best known for his work in the field of fractal geometry. He told me that when he was seeking a word to describe his geometry, thumbing through his son's Latin ...
Oliver Wendell Holmes famously once wrote, "A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions." My mind, and assuredly those of countless others, never did after ...
