A team of scientists from Princeton University has measured the energies of electrons in a new class of quantum materials and has found them to follow a fractal pattern. Fractals are self-repeating ...

Fractals are a fascinating type of pattern for mathematics nerds, with their repeating, artificial-looking structures. Now, scientists have discovered the first known fractal protein – and it seems to ...

Fractal interpolation functions (FIFs) represent an innovative class of methods for modelling and approximating complex data. Derived from iterated function systems, these functions enable the ...

Self-affine tiles and fractal geometry form a rich field where geometric precision meets the complexity of nature’s form. At its core, the subject examines how self-affine tiles—constructed via affine ...

Researchers studied drip paintings in the style of Jackson Pollock, made by children and adults. They found that children ...

In the final chapter of our book*, we briefly discussed the impact of fractal patterns on stress. That's important because stress can interfere with our ability to experience happiness. Yet, what is ...
