Fractal geometry : mathematical foundations and applications

Responsibility Kenneth Falconer
Material Type Book
Publication Chichester, West Sussex, England : Wiley , c1990
Language English
Size xxii, 288 p. : ill. ; 24 cm
Abstract An accessible introduction to fractals, useful as a text or reference. Part I is concerned with the general theory of fractals and their geometry, covering dimensions and their methods of calculation,...plus the local form of fractals and their projections and intersections. Part II contains examples of fractals drawn from a wide variety of areas of mathematics and physics, including self-similar and self-affine sets, graphs of functions, examples from number theory and pure mathematics, dynamical systems, Julia sets, random fractals and some physical applications. Also contains many diagrams and illustrative examples, includes computer drawings of fractals, and shows how to produce further drawings for themselves.
