A Conversation for Fractals - Beautiful Mathematics
Matter of Fractal
Dad n Dave Started conversation Nov 30, 2001
I suspect that what we perceive as particles and waves of energy and matter can be better viewed in a mathematical sense as a fractals. The apparent strangeness of the wave/particle duality of light and matter (eg as demonstrated in the famous double slit experiment) may arise form the same sort of connundrum presented by an infinite perimeter being bound within a finite area. Hence, for example, particles of matter might in a sense be continuous when viewed from the right perspective.
