The Distance Estimate for Quaternion Mandelbrot Sets This book is based on the authors' research on rendering images of higher dimensional fractals by a distance estimation technique. It is self-contained, giving a careful treatment of both the known techniques and the authors' new methods. The distance estimation technique was originally applied to Julia sets and the Mandelbrot set in the complex plane. It was justified, through the work of Douady and Hubbard, by deep results in complex analysis. In this book the authors generalise the distance estimation to quaternionic and other higher dimensional fractals, including fractals derived from itK & E series on knots and everything ;v. 17.Distance estimation and higher dimensional fractalsIterative methods (Mathematics)QuaternionsMandelbrot setsFractalsIterative methods (Mathematics)Quaternions.Mandelbrot sets.Fractals.514.742Dang Yumei1679903Kauffman Louis H.1945-57757Sandin Daniel J1679904MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818582103321Hypercomplex iterations4048506UNINA
