Mandelbulb

Common card · No. 276965

The Mandelbulb is a three-dimensional fractal developed in 2009 by Daniel White and Paul Nylander using spherical coordinates. A canonical 3-dimensional Mandelbrot set does not exist, since there is no 3-dimensional analogue of the 2-dimensional space of complex numbers. It is possible to construct Mandelbrot sets in 4 dimensions using quaternions and bicomplex numbers. White and Nylander's formula for the "nth power" of the vector v = ⟨ x , y , z ⟩ {\displaystyle \mathbf {v} =\langle x,y,z\rangle } in ℝ3 is v n := r n ⟨ sin ⁡ ( n θ ) cos ⁡ ( n ϕ ) , sin ⁡...
