The lab studies the fractal sets that appear in complex dynamics.

AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the shapes of fractals born from repetition
This lab studies dynamical systems, especially complex dynamics.
Repeatedly composing a polynomial in one complex variable naturally produces complex fractal sets such as Julia sets and the Mandelbrot set.
The lab studies their topological and combinatorial properties, such as self-similarity and local connectivity.
Recently, it has also been working on using VR equipment to make fractal sets in complex 2-dimensional (real 4-dimensional) space visible.
Key terms
- Complex dynamics
- A field that studies how points move when a function of complex numbers is applied repeatedly
- Julia set
- The set of points whose motion becomes unstable under repeated application of a function; it takes the form of a complex fractal
- Fractal
- An intricate shape in which enlarging a part reveals a form similar to the whole
ResearchResearch themes
The lab studies dynamical systems, especially complex dynamics. It investigates the properties of fractal sets that arise from the iterated composition of polynomials, and also works on their visualization by computer.
