Between Dimensions

Fractals are complex geometric patterns that exhibit self-similarity and infinite detail, making them fascinating objects of study. One of the key properties that characterizes fractals is their Hausdorff dimension, which measures their degree of complexity and determines their scaling behavior. In this talk, we will start with the investigation the concepts of one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional objects, and then we will explore if there exist any in-between dimensions. We will introduce the concept of Hausdorff dimension and explain how it can be computed for various types of fractals.

Participants earn two CPE hours for each session. We request that you register by noon on January 25 so that we have the needed information for your CPE certificate, the food order, and parking validations. 

Free parking is provided in the Speedway Garage (SWG). Enter the garage on Speedway, between Dean Keaton and 27th street. Pull a ticket when you enter the garage. We will give participants cards to exit.
