Why is it called the Newton Fractal? Did Newton create this method of finding fractals? Qwepoi 07:17, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have seen a claim (by himself) that John H. Hubbard was the first to investigate the chaotic behavior of Newton's Method. Anyone have info on the history? Also, it's not clear to me why the function is specified to be a polynomial in the body of the article, instead of a more general function. -- Spireguy (talk) 02:52, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

the Nova fractal page redirects here, but it is not quite the same as the Newton fractal. I have seen that some editors have zealously deleted any references to the nova fractal on notability grounds. I will add some info about the nova fractal to this page, on the grounds that Nova fractal redirects here, if it is to be deleted please delete the redirection page too, as without information about the nova fractal it is misleading.

I read here[1] that you can approximate julia sets using a newton fractal, can someone add information about that and try to explain it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.238.195.106 (talk) 03:47, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
References
Under section Generalization of Newton fractals there are quite a few images. I believe there should be some, but not 35, as it looks quite cluttered at the moment. I'm not sure what the best course of action would be. Obviously, some could be removed, but another idea is to combine related images (especially p(z) = z6 - 1, a=1 to p(z) = z10 - 1, a=1). Or, maybe most people don't have a problem with its current state. 47.151.142.103 (talk) 00:11, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
