Email: [email protected] Abstract We consider the consequence√ of breaking with a fundamental result in complex analysis by letting i2 = ±1 where i = −1 is the basic unit of all imaginary numbers. An analysis of the Mandelbrot set for this case shows that a demarcation between a Fractal and a Euclidean object is possible based on i2 = −1 and i2 = +1, respectively. Further, we consider the transient behaviour associated with the two cases to produce a range of non-standard sets in which a Fractal geometric structure is transformed into a Euclidean object. In the case of the Mandelbrot set, the Euclidean object is a square whose properties are investigate. Coupled with the associated Julia sets and other complex plane mappings, this approach provides the potential to generate a wide range of new semi-fractal structures which are visually interesting and may be of artistic merit. In this context, we present a mathematical paradox which explores the idea that i2 = ±1. -
Fractal (Mandelbrot and Julia) Zero-Knowledge Proof of Identity
Journal of Computer Science 4 (5): 408-414, 2008 ISSN 1549-3636 © 2008 Science Publications Fractal (Mandelbrot and Julia) Zero-Knowledge Proof of Identity Mohammad Ahmad Alia and Azman Bin Samsudin School of Computer Sciences, University Sains Malaysia, 11800 Penang, Malaysia Abstract: We proposed a new zero-knowledge proof of identity protocol based on Mandelbrot and Julia Fractal sets. The Fractal based zero-knowledge protocol was possible because of the intrinsic connection between the Mandelbrot and Julia Fractal sets. In the proposed protocol, the private key was used as an input parameter for Mandelbrot Fractal function to generate the corresponding public key. Julia Fractal function was then used to calculate the verified value based on the existing private key and the received public key. The proposed protocol was designed to be resistant against attacks. Fractal based zero-knowledge protocol was an attractive alternative to the traditional number theory zero-knowledge protocol. Key words: Zero-knowledge, cryptography, fractal, mandelbrot fractal set and julia fractal set INTRODUCTION Zero-knowledge proof of identity system is a cryptographic protocol between two parties. Whereby, the first party wants to prove that he/she has the identity (secret word) to the second party, without revealing anything about his/her secret to the second party. Following are the three main properties of zero- knowledge proof of identity[1]: Completeness: The honest prover convinces the honest verifier that the secret statement is true. Soundness: Cheating prover can’t convince the honest verifier that a statement is true (if the statement is really false). Fig. 1: Zero-knowledge cave Zero-knowledge: Cheating verifier can’t get anything Zero-knowledge cave: Zero-Knowledge Cave is a other than prover’s public data sent from the honest well-known scenario used to describe the idea of zero- prover. -

Rendering Hypercomplex Fractals by Anthony Atella An Honors Project Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Honors in The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science The School of Arts and Sciences Rhode Island College 2018 Abstract Fractal mathematics and geometry are useful for applications in science, engineering, and art, but acquiring the tools to explore and graph fractals can be frustrating. Tools available online have limited fractals, rendering methods, and shaders. They often fail to abstract these concepts in a reusable way. This means that multiple programs and interfaces must be learned and used to fully explore the topic. Chaos is an abstract fractal geometry rendering program created to solve this problem. This application builds off previous work done by myself and others [1] to create an extensible, abstract solution to rendering fractals. This paper covers what fractals are, how they are rendered and colored, implementation, issues that were encountered, and finally planned future improvements. -
Generating Fractals Using Complex Functions
Generating Fractals Using Complex Functions Avery Wengler and Eric Wasser What is a Fractal? ● Fractals are infinitely complex patterns that are self-similar across different scales. ● Created by repeating simple processes over and over in a feedback loop. ● Often represented on the complex plane as 2-dimensional images Where do we find fractals? Fractals in Nature Lungs Neurons from the Oak Tree human cortex Regardless of scale, these patterns are all formed by repeating a simple branching process. Geometric Fractals “A rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole.” Mandelbrot (1983) The Sierpinski Triangle Algebraic Fractals ● Fractals created by repeatedly calculating a simple equation over and over. ● Were discovered later because computers were needed to explore them ● Examples: ○ Mandelbrot Set ○ Julia Set ○ Burning Ship Fractal Mandelbrot Set ● Benoit Mandelbrot discovered this set in 1980, shortly after the invention of the personal computer 2 ● zn+1=zn + c ● That is, a complex number c is part of the Mandelbrot set if, when starting with z0 = 0 and applying the iteration repeatedly, the absolute value of zn remains bounded however large n gets.

Iterated Function Systems, Ruelle Operators, and Invariant Projective Measures
MATHEMATICS OF COMPUTATION Volume 75, Number 256, October 2006, Pages 1931–1970 S 0025-5718(06)01861-8 Article electronically published on May 31, 2006 ITERATED FUNCTION SYSTEMS, RUELLE OPERATORS, AND INVARIANT PROJECTIVE MEASURES DORIN ERVIN DUTKAY AND PALLE E. T. JORGENSEN Abstract. We introduce a Fourier-based harmonic analysis for a class of dis- crete dynamical systems which arise from Iterated Function Systems. Our starting point is the following pair of special features of these systems. (1) We assume that a measurable space X comes with a finite-to-one endomorphism r : X → X which is onto but not one-to-one. (2) In the case of affine Iterated Function Systems (IFSs) in Rd, this harmonic analysis arises naturally as a spectral duality defined from a given pair of finite subsets B,L in Rd of the same cardinality which generate complex Hadamard matrices. Our harmonic analysis for these iterated function systems (IFS) (X, µ)is based on a Markov process on certain paths. The probabilities are determined by a weight function W on X. From W we define a transition operator RW acting on functions on X, and a corresponding class H of continuous RW - harmonic functions. The properties of the functions in H are analyzed, and they determine the spectral theory of L2(µ).ForaffineIFSsweestablish orthogonal bases in L2(µ). These bases are generated by paths with infinite repetition of finite words. We use this in the last section to analyze tiles in Rd. 1. Introduction One of the reasons wavelets have found so many uses and applications is that they are especially attractive from the computational point of view. -

THE DYNAMICS OF COMPLEX BOX MAPPINGS TREVOR CLARK, KOSTIANTYN DRACH, OLEG KOZLOVSKI, AND SEBASTIAN VAN STRIEN Abstract. In holomorphic dynamics, complex box mappings arise as first return maps to well-chosen domains. They are a generalization of polynomial-like mapping, where the domain of the return map can have infinitely many components. They turned out to be extremely useful in tackling diverse problems. The purpose of this paper is: - To illustrate some pathologies that can occur when a complex box mapping is not induced by a globally defined map and when its domain has infinitely many components, and to give conditions to avoid these issues. - To show that once one has a box mapping for a rational map, these conditions can be assumed to hold in a very natural setting. Thus we call such complex box mappings dy- namically natural. Having such box mappings is the first step in tackling many problems in one-dimensional dynamics. - Many results in holomorphic dynamics rely on an interplay between combinatorial and analytic techniques. In this setting some of these tools are - the Enhanced Nest (a nest of puzzle pieces around critical points) from [KSS1]; - the Covering Lemma (which controls the moduli of pullbacks of annuli) from [KL1]; - the QC-Criterion and the Spreading Principle from [KSS1]. The purpose of this paper is to make these tools more accessible so that they can be used as a `black box', so one does not have to redo the proofs in new settings. - To give an intuitive, but also rather detailed, outline of the proof from [KvS, KSS1] of the following results for non-renormalizable dynamically natural complex box mappings: - puzzle pieces shrink to points, - (under some assumptions) topologically conjugate non-renormalizable polynomials and box mappings are quasiconformally conjugate. -

College, Pauri Garhwal Uttarakhand, 9990423408, [email protected] Abstract The generation of fractals and study of the dynamics of polynomials is one of the emerging and interesting fields of research nowadays. We introduce in this paper the dynamics of modified multibrot function zd - z + c = 0 for d 2 and applied Jungck Ishikawa Iteration to generate new Relative Superior Mandelbrot sets and Relative Superior Julia sets. We have presented here different characteristics of Multibrot function like its trajectories, its complex dynamics and its behaviour towards Julia set are also discussed. In order to solve this function by Jungck –type iterative schemes, we write it in the form of Sz = Tz, where the function T, S are defined as Tz = zd +c and Sz= z. Only mathematical explanations are derived by applying Jungck Ishikawa Iteration for polynomials in the literature but in this paper we have generated relative Mandelbrot sets and Relative Julia sets.

How Math Makes Movies Like Doctor Strange So Otherworldly | Science News for Students
3/13/2020 How math makes movies like Doctor Strange so otherworldly | Science News for Students MATH How math makes movies like Doctor Strange so otherworldly Patterns called fractals are inspiring filmmakers with ideas for mind-bending worlds Kaecilius, on the right, is a villain and sorcerer in Doctor Strange. He can twist and manipulate the fabric of reality. The film’s visual-effects artists used mathematical patterns, called fractals, illustrate Kaecilius’s abilities on the big screen. MARVEL STUDIOS By Stephen Ornes January 9, 2020 at 6:45 am For wild chase scenes, it’s hard to beat Doctor Strange. In this 2016 film, the fictional doctor-turned-sorcerer has to stop villains who want to destroy reality. To further complicate matters, the evildoers have unusual powers of their own. “The bad guys in the film have the power to reshape the world around them,” explains Alexis Wajsbrot. He’s a film director who lives in Paris, France. But for Doctor Strange, Wajsbrot instead served as the film’s visual-effects artist. Those bad guys make ordinary objects move and change forms. Bringing this to the big screen makes for chases that are spectacular to watch. City blocks and streets appear and disappear around the fighting foes. Adversaries clash in what’s called the “mirror dimension” — a place where the laws of nature don’t apply. Forget gravity: Skyscrapers twist and then split. Waves ripple across walls, knocking people sideways and up. At times, multiple copies of the entire city seem to appear at once, but at different sizes. -
Understanding the Mandelbrot and Julia Set
Understanding the Mandelbrot and Julia Set Jake Zyons Wood August 31, 2015 Introduction Fractals infiltrate the disciplinary spectra of set theory, complex algebra, generative art, computer science, chaos theory, and more. Fractals visually embody recursive structures endowing them with the ability of nigh infinite complexity. The Sierpinski Triangle, Koch Snowflake, and Dragon Curve comprise a few of the more widely recognized iterated function fractals. These recursive structures possess an intuitive geometric simplicity which makes their creation, at least at a shallow recursive depth, easy to do by hand with pencil and paper. The Mandelbrot and Julia set, on the other hand, allow no such convenience. These fractals are part of the class: escape-time fractals, and have only really entered mathematicians’ consciousness in the late 1970’s[1]. The purpose of this paper is to clearly explain the logical procedures of creating escape-time fractals. This will include reviewing the necessary math for this type of fractal, then specifically explaining the algorithms commonly used in the Mandelbrot Set as well as its variations. By the end, the careful reader should, without too much effort, feel totally at ease with the underlying principles of these fractals. What Makes The Mandelbrot Set a set? 1 Figure 1: Black and white Mandelbrot visualization The Mandelbrot Set truly is a set in the mathematica sense of the word. A set is a collection of anything with a specific property, the Mandelbrot Set, for instance, is a collection of complex numbers which all share a common property (explained in Part II). All complex numbers can in fact be labeled as either a member of the Mandelbrot set, or not. -
Extending Mandelbox Fractals with Shape Inversions
Extending Mandelbox Fractals with Shape Inversions Gregg Helt Genomancer, Healdsburg, CA, USA; [email protected] Abstract The Mandelbox is a recently discovered class of escape-time fractals which use a conditional combination of reflection, spherical inversion, scaling, and translation to transform points under iteration. In this paper we introduce a new extension to Mandelbox fractals which replaces spherical inversion with a more generalized shape inversion. We then explore how this technique can be used to generate new fractals in 2D, 3D, and 4D. Mandelbox Fractals The Mandelbox is a class of escape-time fractals that was first discovered by Tom Lowe in 2010 [5]. It was named the Mandelbox both as an homage to the classic Mandelbrot set fractal and due to its overall boxlike shape when visualized, as shown in Figure 1a. The interior can be rich in self-similar fractal detail as well, as shown in Figure 1b. Many modifications to the original algorithm have been developed, almost exclusively by contributors to the FractalForums online community. Although most explorations of Mandelboxes have focused on 3D versions, the algorithm can be applied to any number of dimensions.
