- Hello
- I have to give a presentation about fractals for my
- non-Euclidean geometry class. Rather than just recite pretty much
- what I already know about IFS's created with dilations, rotations, and
- translations, I thought it would be much more interesting if I studied
- IFS's in a geometry other than Euclidean.
- Plane hyperbolic geometry looks very promising, since it has
- the addition of another type of transform. However, I haven't found
- any references to this. Eventually, I would like to prove the theorem
- that says the random algorithm is equivalent to the deterministic
- algorithm in non-euclidean geometries. If anyone has any help to give
- me, or any sources of information, I would be very grateful.
-
- Thanks,
- -matt hall
