The Universe isn’t a true fractal, but even in the realms where it’s only approximately a fractal, there are still some compelling cosmic lessons just waiting to be learned. Editorial ...

If fractals are everywhere, Mandelbrot guessed, then perhaps the entire universe is a fractal. Maybe what we saw as the pattern in the arrangement of galaxies was the beginning steps of the ...

For decades, cosmologists have wondered if the large-scale structure of the universe is a fractal: if it looks the same no ...

A new paper confirms a conventional picture of the universe, one that is smooth and homogeneous at very large scales, losing its fractal structure when we zoom out far enough. The finding means ...

Is the matter in the universe arranged in a fractal pattern? A new study of nearly a million galaxies suggests it is – though there are no well-accepted theories to explain why that would be so.

Some scientists wondered whether the universe is a fractal: a mathematical object that looks the same at any scale, whether you zoom in or out, which would have profound implications for ...

The universe is fractal-like out to many distance scales, but at a certain point, the mathematical form breaks down. There are no more Russian nesting dolls — i.e., ...

Fractal Holographic Universe is an extraordinary exploration of the interconnectedness of the universe, where Billy Carson masterfully delves into the complex relationship between fractals ...

If you take a look at the structures that form in the Universe, many of the things we see on large scales appear at smaller scales, too. The dark matter halos that form around the largest bound ...
