Helge von Koch captured the idea of an infinite length surrounding a finite area with his so-called Koch curve . This is created by beginning with an equilateral triangle and adding another equilateral triangle to the middle third of each side. This bifurcation rule can be applied infinitely many times in principle, and the result is as shown: A magnification of the Koch curve will look exactly the same as the original and this property is known as self-similiarity The Koch curve can be classified as fractal because it cannot be visualised in integer dimensions: it is 'rougher' than a smooth curve or line (which has 1 dimension) so is better at 'taking up space', but is not as good at filling up space as a square (which has 2 dimensions) since it doesn't really have any area. The Koch curve is said to have a fractal dimension of around 1.2618. However, fractals are not just an abstract construction - they are also found in real-world systems such as blood vessels, the internal structure of the lungs, graphs of stock market data, and so on. Nowadays, using computer programming, mathematicians can produce very realistic images of extremely complicated structures. Patterns in nature from bacteria and fern growth, to clouds and mountains can now be created by using simple formulas which are very close to repeating themselves but never actually do.

Mendelbrot
Benoit Mandelbrot was a mathematician studying this self-similarity. One of the areas he was studying was
cotton price fluctuation. He noticed the numbers that produced aberrations from the point of view of normal
distribution produced symmetry from the point of view of scaling. Each particular price change was
random and unpredictable. But the sequence of changes was independent on scale: curves for daily price
changes and monthly price changes matched perfectly. Incredibly, analysed Mandelbrot's way, the degree
of variation had remained constant over a tumultuous sixty-year period that saw two World Wars and a
depression
Mandelbrot analysed not only cotton prices, but many other phenomena as well. At one point, he was
wondering about the length of a coastline. A map of a coastline will show many bays. However, measuring
the length of a coastline off a map will miss minor bays that were too small to show on the map. Likewise, walking along the coastline misses microscopic bays in between grains of sand. No matter how much a coastline is magnified, there will be more bays visible if it is magnified more.

Lindenmayer
Der Biologe Aristid Lindenmayer (1925-1989) führte aufgrund seiner Untersuchungen zum Pflanzenwachstum ein Rückkopplungsprinzip ein, das unter dem Namen L-System in die Fraktalgeometrie Einzug gehalten hat. Lindenmayer entwickelte die Theorie zu diesem L-System 1968 aufgrund seiner Erkenntnisse bezüglich der kontextfreien Chromsky-Grammatiken. Eine Definitionsgleichung besteht aus einer Folge von Zeichen der Menge:
F, +, - und weiteren mit folgender Bedeutung:
F = Forward respektive vorwärts, + = Drehen um einen fixen Winkel nach oben, - = Drehen um einen fixen Winkel nach unten.
Diese Syntax wurde in den 80er Jahren durch Papert in der bekannten Turtle-Graphik (Programmiersprache LOGO) interpretiert.

Lite fakta om Helge von Koch.
Helge von Koch var en svensk matematiker som levde år 1870-1924.
Vid den ringa åldern av 22 år disputerade von Koch år 1892. Drygt 10 år senare blev han professor vid Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan i Stockholm. Där arbetade han som professor år 1905 till år 1911, då han istället blev professor vid Stockholms högskola.
Helge von Koch har givit namn åt den så kallade von Kochs kurva, samt von Kochs snöflinga.
Även Helges syskon är väl kända. Helge är bror till Sigurd och Gerard Halfred (G.H.) von Koch. Se hur Helge von Koch såg ut.

He was a student of Mittag-Leffler at Stockholm University. Von Koch's first results were on infinitely many linear equations in infinitely many unknowns. In 1891 he wrote the first of two papers on applications of infinite determinants to solving systems of differential equations with analytic coefficients. The methods he used were based on those published by about six years earlier. The second of von Koch's papers was published in 1892, the year in which von Koch was awarded a doctorate for his thesis which contained the results of the two papers. Von Koch was awarded a doctorate in mathematics by Stockholm University on 26 May 1892. Garding writes in [2] that his doctoral thesis was:-

    A line is divided into three equal sections. The central one is removed, and two lines of equal length are put in its place. In this way the figure below is generated.
    In the center is now an equilateral triangle, with its lowest side removed. What would happen if you were to divide every line into three pieces, remove the central piece, and replace it with two other ones of equal length just like was done with the first line? You would see the situation below.
    If one did the same again:
    After 100 iterations I had the following picture:
    Now suppose that the length op the first line was 1 dm (=10cm). Then the length of the segments in the second picture would be 1/3 dm. The total length of the segments would be 4*1/3 dm=4/3dm. After the second iteration there are already 16 segments in the curve. With each iteration a segment gets 3 times as small, but 4 times as many segments are created. The total length of the 16 segments is therefore (4/3) ~ 1,78 dm.
