Synopsis:

Introduction to fractal theory. Fractals are sets in the plane or Euclidean spaces whose mathematical and esthetical paradigm substantially differs from that of classical geometry of smooth curves and surfaces. The original fantasies of mathematicians - Koch island, Mandelbrot set and the like surprisingly found analogies in physics, biology geography, astronomy...
