9 Recursive rules and the Mandelbrot sequence General recursive rule: s N+1 = f(s N )
10 Recursive rules and the Mandelbrot sequence General recursive rule: s N+1 = f(s N ) Mandelbrot sequence: s 0 = s s N+1 = s 2 N + s
11 Recursive rules and the Mandelbrot sequence General recursive rule: s N+1 = f(s N ) Mandelbrot sequence: s 0 = s s N+1 = s 2 N + s Let s try it on a few starting points: s 0 = 1 s 1 = s s = = 2 s 2 = s s = = 5 (escaping sequence)
12 Recursive rules and the Mandelbrot sequence General recursive rule: s N+1 = f(s N ) Mandelbrot sequence: s 0 = s s N+1 = s 2 N + s Let s try it on a few starting points: s 0 = 1 s 1 = s s = = 2 s 2 = s s = = 5 (escaping sequence) s 0 = 1 s 1 = ( 1) 2 1 = 0 s 2 = = 1 (periodic sequence)
13 s 0 = 0.75 s 1 = ( 0.75) = 0.19 s 2 = ( 0.19) = 0.72 as N gets large, s N 0.5, so -0.5 is an attractor
14 s 0 = 0.75 s 1 = ( 0.75) = 0.19 s 2 = ( 0.19) = 0.72 as N gets large, s N 0.5, so -0.5 is an attractor b a+bi a
15 s 0 = 0.75 s 1 = ( 0.75) = 0.19 s 2 = ( 0.19) = 0.72 as N gets large, s N 0.5, so -0.5 is an attractor b a+bi a (i) seeds of periodic sequences and sequences that approach attractors are colored black (ii) seeds if escaping sequences are colored

24 Computing dimensions Figure Dimension # of copies Line 1 3 Square 2 9 Cube 3 27 Shape d n = 3 d
25 Dimension of the Koch snowflake We get 4 new line segments or 4 self-similar copies. So, in our formula Compute d, the dimension: d = ln 4 ln 3 = = 3 d. The Koch snowflake has fractional dimensions!
