  • Welcome to part 4 of our little Mandelbrot Explained series. In this video we explore the bulbs around the main cardioid, and find that they contain number sequences such as the natural numbers, Fibonacci sequence, and the rational numbers. We then investigate them in terms of their Julia Sets to try and understand visually why they are there. Finally, we look at precisely where the bulbs are attached to the cardioid.

    You should really put together a fifth video in this series, dealing with other concepts connected to the Mandelbrot set, such as finding other number sequences in the bulbs like the powers of two, external rays, equipotential curves, Misiurewicz points, Siegel discs, how you can derive a bifurcation diagram from the set, the Buddhabrot variation, and even how you can calculate π just by using the set.

    Could you do the internet favor and just post images of that mandelbrot set made out of a circle with degree marks to as many social media sites as you can?
    That is probably one of the best and most important visuals I got out of this entire fantastic series.

    The thing about the bulbs matching with the internal angle of the cardioid is insane

    • @denelson83
      @denelson83 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Here's a conjecture: Call the centre of the inner circle "O" and the point where the outer circle is tangent to the inner circle "A". When the outer circle is at 0°, the highlighted point on the outer circle-the point that traces out the boundary of the cardioid, which we will call "B"-is exactly at 0.25, which we will call "C". Now roll the outer circle around the inner circle through a certain angle. The conjecture states that line segments OA and BC are always parallel. Can you come up with a proof for this conjecture?

      @@denelson83 worked on it for a while, and decided I may just give up on this one. what I did was I first sized up the circles to have a radius of 1 (this also meant C became 1 + 0i) to make things easier, then created the variable z to represent the measure of the angle of the outer circle, or more accurately angle AOC, in radians. all I needed to prove OA and BC were parallel was a proof that their slopes were equal. OA's slope ended up being (sin z)/(cos z), and for BC it was (2 sin z + sin (2z + pi))/(2 cos z + cos(2z + pi) - 1). this was a really good start, but no matter how I approached it, I couldn't simplify BC's slope adequately due to that pesky -1. (note, the -1 is because of C)
      Edit: that last bit can be simplified in some way, but not in a way that helps. (sin z/cos z) can become tan z, and then we can invert that tan function so the equation becomes "tan^-1 of the slope of BC = z" but thats essentially just a rewording of the conjecture.

    Hey Mr. Mathemagicians Guild, when you get back into making mandelbrot set videos, can you please talk about Mandelbrots of different exponents (Zn=Z^X+C), what happens as the exponent N approaches infinity, and what a mandelbrot set looks like with a imaginary/complex exponent? I tried making a imaginary mandelbrot using the fractal imaging software Xaos and posted my findings on my channel, however i think a proper hand coded imaging method is needed to properly view them in good quality. Finally i would love to hear your take on how the mandelbrot set and bifuration diagram/logistic map are connected. Thank you!

    Imagine a VR Mandelbrot in 3D where you can also see the values for each point you follow.
    Although math is conceptual, we clearly see the corresponding mirror in tangible nature such as crystal formation, plant formation, and interstellar body formations. Is this by accident or design? 🤔

    Something doesn't make sense here. Look at 1:01. We have a cycle of 3 points but one of those points is NOT in the Mandelbrot set. How is that possible. If one iteration is not in the set then it goes off to infinity. All iterations MUST be in the set. You can't get bigger than 2 and then shrink back down again.

    • @denelson83
      @denelson83 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In order for a point _c_ to be in the Mandelbrot set, the orbit of _z_ that it makes has to stay within the circle of radius 2 centred on 0, e.g., all values that _z_ takes on must have a magnitude of 2 or less.
