Extractions: Mandelbrot wurde 1924 in Polen in eine Familie mit akademischer Tradition geboren. Sein Vater verdiente seinen Lebensunterhalt durch Kauf und Verkauf von Bekleidung, seine Mutter war Ärztin. Mandelbrot wurde als Junge von zwei Onkeln in die Mathematik eingeführt. Die Mandelbrots wanderten 1936 nach Frankreich aus. Benoits Onkel Szolem Mandelbrojt, der Mathematikprofessor im Collège de France und Nachfolger Hadamards war, übernahm seine Ausbildung. Der Einfluss von Szolem Mandelbrojt war sowohl positiv als auch negativ, da er ein großer Bewunderer von Hardy und seiner mathematischen Philosophie war. So er selbst sagte, er könne nun verstehen, wieso Hardy als überzeugter Pazifist gegen die Angewandte Mathematik war, die in falschen Händen während des Krieges zu einem gefährlichen Werkzeug werden könnte. Mandelbrot besuchte bis zum Anfang des 2. Weltkrieges das Lycée Rolin in Paris. Dann zog seine Familie nach Tulle in Zentralfrankreich. Der Krieg verhinderte einen regelmäßigen Schulbesuch, so dass er sich Vieles selbst beibrachte. Diese ungewöhnliche Ausbildung erwies sich als ein großer Vorteil. Sie erlaubte es ihm, unkonventionell zu denken, und half ihm, einen sehr geometrischen Zugang zur Mathematik zu entwickeln. Seine bemerkenswerte geometrische Intuition und sein Vorstellungsvermögen erlaubten ihm ungewöhnliche Einsichten in mathematische Probleme. Nach dem Studium in Lyon wurde Mandelbrot an der Ecole Normale in Paris aufgenommen. Er verließ sie allerdings gleich nach dem ersten Tag. Nach sehr gut bestandener Aufnahmeprüfung begann er 1944 an der Ecole Polytechnique zu studieren. Hier hatte Paul Lévy einen starken Einfluss auf ihn. Danach ging Mandelbrot zum California Institute of Technology in den USA und anschließend zum Institute of Advanced Study nach Princeton, wo er von John von Neumann gefördert wurde.

http://domino.watson.ibm.com/Comm/bios.nsf/pages/mandelbrot.bio.page.html

Extractions: His creation of fractal geometry and the concept that simple rules can generate infinitely complex structures and behaviors defines a paradigm rooted in the fact that fractals "are irregular geometric shapes having identical structure at all scales.'' According to Mandelbrot, their irregular and complex behavior is echoed from scale to scale. Mandelbrot's multi-disciplinary explorations began with his doctoral thesis in 1952, which combined linguistics (a mathematical analysis of the distribution of words) with the tools of statistical thermodynamics. In the early 1960s, he moved to study finance, demonstrating that price fluctuations in markets are not smooth, as economists thought, but are often choppy, discontinuous and always concentrated in time.

http://www.fractsurf.de/e_bios.html

Extractions: Benoit Mandelbrot was largely responsible for the present interest in fractal geometry. He showed how fractals can occur in many different places in both mathematics and elsewhere in nature. Mandelbrot was born in Poland in 1924 into a family with a very academic tradition. His father, however, made his living buying and selling clothes while his mother was a doctor. As a young boy, Mandelbrot was introduced to mathematics by his two uncles. Hadamard in this post, took responsibility for his education. In fact the influence of Szolem Mandelbrojt was both positive and negative since he was a great admirer of Hardy and Hardy 's philosophy of mathematics. This brought a reaction from Mandelbrot against pure mathematics, although as Mandelbrot himself says, he now understands how Hardy 's deep felt pacifism made him fear that applied mathematics, in the wrong hands, might be used for evil in time of war.

http://www.umich.edu/~lowbrows/reflections/1998/dsnyder.3.html

Extractions: Printed in Reflections: November, 1998. Fractals are mathematical objects with strange properties. They have been known for many years, but had been relegated to an obscure corner of mathematics. In the beginning fractals were curiosities, very few people thought they had any real applications (Ludwig Boltzmann and Jean Perrin were among the exceptions). All that changed when Benoit Mandelbrot began his career. Mandelbrot discovered that complex phenomenon in a variety of sciences, including astronomy, could be understood in terms of fractals. Fractal geometry along with several other sciences were motivated by examining human senses. For example, the sense of sight led to the study of electromagnetic radiation and the sense of hearing led to the study of acoustics. However until recently, there had never been any science of roughness. Starting in the late 1800's and into the early 1900's, a number of strange mathematical objects were developed by Georg Cantor, Helge von Koch, David Hilbert, Giuseppe Peano, Carl Ludwig Sierpinski and others. They were called "monster curves" as if they were unruly beasts who needed to be locked up before they did some real damage (the word fractal would come later). Unlike other objects like circles and sine curves which are smooth, these objects are rough and this roughness persists even as the object is magnified. As the object is magnified more and more, the same amount of roughness is present. They are created using a simple process known as aggregate replacement. By repeating this process indefinitely images of these objects form, showing that a complex object can result from a simple procedure.

Extractions: In fractal geometry, objects may have "fractional" dimensions. For example, a fractal image such as that of the Mandelbrot set has a border that is infinitely detailed, and has a dimension between one and two. M andelbrot, Benoit B. (1924- ), Polish-born French mathematician who developed fractal geometry as a separate field of mathematics. Born in Warsaw, Mandelbrot attended universities in France and the United States, obtaining his doctorate in mathematics from the University of Paris in 1952. He has taught economics at Harvard University, engineering at Yale, physiology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and mathematics in Paris and Geneva. Since 1958 he has worked as an IBM Fellow at the Thomas B. Watson Research Center in New York. Fractal geometry is distinguished by its more abstract approach to dimension than is observed in conventional geometry. It is finding increasing applications in many different areas of science and technology.

Extractions: Back to the Table of Contents Biographies of Mathematicians - Benoit Mandelbrot Benoit Mandelbrot was born in Warsaw, Poland, in 1924. His education consisted largely of being self-taught, because his family emigrated to France, he was often endangered due to WWII and was unable to attend very much college. Mandelbrot, after moving with his family to France in 1936, attended the Lycée Rolin and the Ecole Polytechnique (a pair of French colleges), as well as Caltech and Princeton, which he was recommended to by John von Neumann. He then found work at IBM, where he used the computers there to create his famous Mandelbrot Set. Creations Mandelbrot is responsible for most of the creation of fractal geometry and chaos theory; two concepts that threaten to change the way mathematics is viewed in the world today. The Concept of Fractals A fractal is a shape that is self similar: i.e. the image is made up of an infinite number of copies of itself. The shape you see below is a fractal; if you zoom in on any given point, you will eventually find the shape repeated in the fractal. Fractals are the first nonlinear shapes to be produced: i.e. they cannot be represented with lines. As such, they cannot be displayed with the sciences of calculus, geometry, and algebra. All shapes in reality are fractal in design, as none of them can be reduced to a mere line; hence, the linear logic of Calculus, Geometry and Algebra are relegated to the theoretical planes, and cannot be applied to everyday matter.

Extractions: By changing the generator, several different Koch Islands can be created. In his book "The Fractal Geometry of Nature", Benoit Mandelbrot discusses the property of the generator called self-avoiding (page 39). "A Koch construction using carelessly chosen generators risk self-contact or self-intersection, or even self-overlap. " This aspect of the generator is also noticeable with doing Escher-like tessellations. It is one of the challenges to make the boundary of an Escher-tile to be self-avoiding.

http://www.fortunecity.com/emachines/e11/86/mandel.html

Extractions: Science and geometry have always progressed hand in hand. In the 17th century, Johannes Kepler found that he could represent the orbits of the planets around the Sun by ellipses. This stimulated Isaac Newton to explain these elliptical orbits as following from the law of gravity. Similarly, the back-and-forth motion of a perfect pendulum is represented by a sine wave. Simple dynamics used to be associated with simple geometrical shapes. This kind of mathematical picture implies a smooth relationship between an object's form and the forces acting on it. In the examples of the planets and the pendulum, it also implies that the physics is deterministic, meaning that you can predict the future of these systems from their past. Two recent developments have deeply affected the relationship between geometry and physics, however. The first comes from the recognition that nature is full of something called deterministic chaos. There are many apparently simple physical systems in the Universe that obey deterministic laws but nevertheless behave unpredictably . A pendulum acting under two forces, for example.
