by
Benoit Mandelbrot, Richard Hudson
Mathematical superstar and inventor of fractal geometry, Benoit Mandelbrot, has spent the past forty years studying the underlying mathematics of space and natural patterns. What many of his followers don't realize is that he has also been watching patterns of market change. In "The (Mis)Behavior of Markets," Mandelbrot joins with science ...

by
Michael McGuire, Benoit B. Mandelbrot (Designed by)
Fractional geometry posits that a natural visual complexity can arise from iteration of simple rules and simple shapes. An Eye for Fractals is a fascinating study of the converse premise: that natures complexity implies an underlying simplicity that can be traced back to fractal geometry.The book effectively integrates art with science, ...

by
Benoit Mandelbrot, Michael Frame
Fractal Geometry is a recent edition to the collection of mathematical tools for describing nature, and is the first to focus on roughness. Fractal geometry also appears in art, music and literature, most often without being consciously included by the artist. Consequently, through this we may uncover connections between the arts and sciences, ...

To observe nature means to recognize and be fascinated by patterns, to see symmetries and simple transformation laws. Since Mandelbrot recognized the unifying concept of "fractal", practically everyone in the scientific community has become aware of the ubiquity of these structures with their peculiar symmetry, where their components reproduce ...

Benoit Mandelbrot, C J G Evertsz, M C Gutzwiller
It has only been a couple of decades since Benoit Mandelbrot published his famous picture of what is now called the Mandelbrot set. That picture, now seeming graphically primitive, has changed our view of the mathematical and physical universe. The properties and circumstances of the discovery of the Mandelbrot Set continue to generate much ...

by
Benoit B Mandelbrot, J M Berger (Contributions by), J -P Kahane (Contributions by)
Certain noises, many aspects of turbulence, and almost all aspects of finance exhibit a level of temporal and spatial variability whose "wildness" impressed itself vividly upon the author, Benoit Mandelbrot, in the early 1960's. He soon realized that those phenomena cannot be described by simply adapting the statistical techniques of earlier ...

The (Mis)Behaviour of Markets
by
Richard L. Hudson Benoit B. Mandelbrot
Fractal geometry is the mathematics of roughness: how to reduce the outline of a jagged leaf, a rocky coastline or a static in a computer connection to a few simple mathematical properties - to make the complex simple. With his fractal tools, Benoit Mandelbrot has got to the bottom of how financial markets really work. He finds they have a ...
