Fractals deal with special sets that exhibit complicated patterns in every scale. Fractal sets usually have a Hausdorff dimension different from its topological dimension. Examples include Julia sets, the Sierpinski triangle, the Cantor set. Fractals naturally appear in dynamical system, such as iterations in the complex plane, or as strange attractors to continuous dynamical systems, (see Lorentz attractor).

Fractal questions: Weierstraß-Mandelbrot
My question is whether there are nowhere differentiable continuous functions (between real numbers) whose graph are not fractals?
Of course this depends on your definition of fractal. … Added:

Fractal sets and dimensions
Suppose we construct sets $A,B,C$ with
$A \subseteq [0,1]$, $\dim_\mathrm{H}(A) = 1/5$ and $\dim_\mathrm{P}(A) = 4/5$,
$B \subseteq [2,3]$, $\dim_\mathrm{H}(B) = 1/5$ and $\dim_\mathrm{P}(B) = 2/5$,

Hausdorff outer measure is finite if $\sum_{j = 1}^m |f(x_i)-f(x_{i-1})|^s \le c$
Take $s \ge 1$. We will use $(x+y)^s \le x^s+y^s$ for positive $x,y$.
Let $C=2^{1+s/2}(1+c)$. I claim: $\mathcal H^s(G) \le C$.
Let $N \in \mathbb N$. Let $\eta > 0$ be so small that

A calculus question related to quantization dimension
My response to the answer by fedja, Jun 5, 2011. This should be a comment, but won't fit.
It didn't work. Taking values of $A,B,\epsilon$ that satisfy your conditions, then tracing back through u …

Self-similarity of a dendrite fractal
OK, as hinted in my comment. Here is the fractal $J$:
Now choose a branch of the squareroot so that $\sqrt{w-i}$ is continuous on this set. Here is the image of $J$ under the map $\sqrt{w-i}$ …

Fractals of dimension zero
One example: the set of

In number theory, a Liouville number is an irrational number $x$ with the property that, for every positive integer $n$, the …

Angles and proportions occurring in L-system fractals
In your first example, I think the ratio is
$$
\arctan\frac{\sqrt{127+96\sqrt{2}\;}}{7} \approx 66.643774 \text{ degrees}
$$
There is no reason to think this is a rational number of degrees. And: the …

Iterated function system on the plane
partial solution
Something like this should work. We are given $r_1, r_2, r_3 > 0$ with $r_1^2+r_2^2+r_3^2<1$. Let $s$ be such that $r_1^s+r_2^s+r_3^s = 1$; this $s$ is the similarity dimension …
