Fractal geometry

Chaos and Literary Comparison     Abstract: I will show how chaos is can be found in art, specifically in literature, and analyze John Hawkes's Travesty to show the similarities between literature and chaos.   John Hawkes describes the "artistic challenge" as conceiving the inconceivable. In accordance with that thought, Wallace Stevens says, "Imagination is the power that enables us to perceive the normal in the abnormal." It is arguable that chaos, deterministic disorder, is both

Analyzing seemingly random data or patterns in chaos will allow you to predict the future TAOS reveals that patterns=‘health variability’ and predict the future for the mind and body Providing solutions for industrial field using chaos analysis Create a healthy and bright future with chaos prediction technologies Disease Prognosis We apply chaos theory into disease prognosis. By recording minor symptoms (changes) and diagnosing health problems at an early stage, we are able to build a secure and

The Sierpinski Triangle Deep within the realm of fractal math lies a fascinating triangle filled with unique properties and intriguing patterns. This is the Sierpinski Triangle, a fractal of triangles with an area of zero and an infinitely long perimeter. There are many ways to create this triangle and many areas of study in which it appears. Named after the Polish mathematician, Waclaw Sierpinski, the Sierpinski Triangle has been the topic of much study since Sierpinski first discovered it in

Grade 1 – The resource selected to effectively support the recognition and classification of 2D and 3D shapes is a maths game ‘Kangaroo Hop’ accessed from Math Playground (URL http://www.mathplayground.com/ASB_Kangaroo_Hop.html). The game can have up to 4 players and the aim is to be the first to reach the end. To win, a player must correctly identify the shape that comes up at the bottom of the screen and ‘hop’ onto it. For example, if the word sphere comes up, the student must correctly identify

influenced art in a more definite way – by actually becoming art. The introduction of fractal geometry and tessellations as creative works spawned the creation of new and innovative genres of art, which can be exemplified through the works of M.C Escher. Escher’s pieces are among the most recognized works of art today. While visually stimulating and deeply meaningful, his art reflects many ideas of mathematics through geometry, symmetry, and patterns. Maurits Cornelius

growing civilizations, most notably counting commodities, taxation, and the division of land equally, rather than a pure desire for understanding that is seen in mathematics today. These influences culminated in the development of early arithmetic and geometry. The first civilization that is discussed is early Egypt. Records have been found referring to mathematics done in Egypt showing a rudimentary understanding of the Pythagorean Theorem as it pertains to the construction of triangles with whole number

Why Beauty is truth: A History of Symmetry by Ian Stewart is in depth on how mathematicians came about symmetry. Instead of coming across symmetry by geometry as someone today might think, Stewart shows how it became an idea by algebra. Most of the book is told in chronological order from the early Egyptians and Babylonians discovery of the quadratic equation and leading up to the impossibility to solve the quintic equation. Through each chapter we see how mathematicians get one step closer to solving

Who Needs Mathematical Rigor? Development of Proofs and Important Results Mattia Janigro 21 February 2015 Who needs mathematical rigor? Some mathematicians at some times, but by no means all mathematicians at all times. [1] Philip Kitcher Introduction Early mathematical methods of the Egyptians and Babylonians solved problems on a case-by-case basis - there were no general statements about mathematics and results were assumed to be true simply because they worked. The earliest mathematicians made

Siddarth Kumar H Block Mathematics News Article Annual Islamic Symposium on The Arts and Sciences Inside Dover-Sherborn Regional High School In Room 214 the Annual Islamic Symposium on The Arts and Sciences has just concluded. The symposium was one of the most important events of our time, where notable scholars and key figures met in the “House of Wisdom” in order to hold panel discussions and present displays on the advancements in the fields of Art and Science through the 15th century.

I haven’t always had a passion for mathematics. Throughout high school and my first year of college, my only goal was to get a degree with minimal effort. My first year at SUNY Potsdam was dreadful at best. Not only was I miserable taking courses I didn’t enjoy, but my GPA suffered for it. The semester I took Calculus 1 was when everything turned around for me. Starting that semester my GPA stayed consistently above a 3.7. I was finally enjoying learning and doing well in college. It didn’t take
