Description


Benoît Mandelbrot is a French-American mathematician, born in Warsaw on 20 November 1924 and died 14 October 2010 in Cambridge, Massachusetts1. He worked early in his career, on novel applications of information theory and then developed a new class of mathematical objects: fractal objects, or fractals. The Mandelbrot set is a mathematical set of points whose boundary is a distinctive and easily recognizable two-dimensional fractal shape. The set is closely related to Julia sets (which include similarly complex shapes), and is named after the mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot, who studied and popularized it. Images of the Mandelbrot set are made by sampling complex numbers and determining for each whether the result tends towards infinity when a particular mathematical operation is iterated on it. Treating the real and imaginary parts of each number as image coordinates, pixels are colored according to how rapidly the sequence diverges, if at all. Benoît Mandelbrot est un mathématicien franco-américain, né à Varsovie le 20 novembre 1924 et mort le 14 octobre 2010 à Cambridge, dans le Massachusetts1. Il a travaillé, au début de sa carrière, sur des applications originales de la théorie de l’information, puis développé ensuite une nouvelle classe d’objets mathématiques : les objets fractals, ou fractales. Il a montré qu'un grand nombre d’objets dans la nature étaient bien décrits par des fractales, conduisant ainsi à de nouveaux terrains de recherche. Des fractales se retrouvent également dans des phénomènes étudiés en théorie du chaos et dans les phénomènes économiques, comme les fluctuations boursières.

Une image somptueuse! Les infos que tu donnes prouve bien qu'un même modèle peut décrire le pire: les fluctuations boursières, comme amener au meilleur: de splendides images!

J'ai longtemps pensé que le domaine scientifique (et plus particulièrement les mathématiques, si... arides!) était totalement et irrémédiablement incompatible avec le monde artistique. Je suis bien contente d'avoir la preuve éblouissante du contraire!!

Imaginer que les fractales peuvent servir à la Bourse m'horrifie ! heureusement qu'ici, on en voit une utilisation artistique ! encore une merveille, Claude !
