Studying fractals = job security. There's always more to study!
lol so true
Lol Fr I get what you mean there is an infinite amount to learn since we have fractal similarity
The greatest use of fractals is to get high and then watch a video of fractals.
solved. give him a cookie
I think the universe is in the fractals
as a fractal i approve
I realized one day that We are all IN a fractal.
The coastal fractal was a beautiful surprise
Fractals are just fractional exponents in the context of gauging roughness, self-similar fractals are a very small and specific set of all fractal geometry. Very important area of study in mathematics through.
I feel like they have something to do with quantum mechanics and/or spacetime. What is the surface area of a fully iterated fractal? Infinite?
What if the fractal is a 4th dimensional fractal, could it spin, and have the surface switch between either the open parts or full parts, and you could represent some sort of superposition, where the fractal is in both states at the same time, having an infinite surface area either way? Its so elusive to try and explain or understand it intuitively. Maybe some psychedelics will help lol
I feel like this would help you understand gravity, as gravity sort of acts like a fractal. The inverse square law is almost a fractal. The spherical nature of gravity is kind of fractal in nature. If gravity is the curvature of the 4th dimension, could fractals represent gravity by representing this curvature through spacetime through a tessalting 4D fractal? Take any chunk of time of an objects lifetime and motion, and represent it as that fractal?
Could you model the entire universe this way? Would there be voids and clusters? Would those voids grow fractally like the expansion accelerates? Idk
Hi so I have a math degree and I actually took the course that talks about fractals. They belong to a branch of mathematics called dynamical systems. To answer some of your questions, yes fractals are a type of object with finite area and infinite surface area. They can be 4-d if constructed properly, although fractals are thought to be fractal dimensional. For example, some fractals are “1.75 - D” rather than simply 2-d or 1-d. They come up in lots of places in nature and when doing math, although I’m not sure if they have any of the other applications you described. If you know some theoretical math and would like to know more then you should read “an introduction to chaotic dynamical systems” by devany. If you don’t have a pure math background then there’s plenty of resources online where you an learn the basics
We are all fractals.

I once thought fingers looked a bit like "fractals" of hands and then I thought, what if the back of a hand had a giant fingernail. o_0
Obviously fingers don't really look anything like the "main" part of the hand, this was a long time ago (more or less...).
