Course Description:
This course will study the emergence of fractal geometries in a variety of contexts. Fractals arising from iterated function systems, Julia and Mandelbrot sets, and strange attractors and bifurcation diagrams will be studied in detail Introductory topics from metric space analysis, complex analysis, and dynamical systems will be presented to allow for a rigorous treatment of each fractal type. |
