In this iterated function system, a Möbius transformation is applied in succession to the white circle yielding the blue and yellow circles. Varying the characteristic constant of the transformation gives the different arrangements seen in each frame of the animation. The particular dynamics shown here can be conceived by using a stereographic projection and oscillating the Riemann sphere about...

Calabi-Yau manifold

fewpeoplematter: A spinning 3D model of the 6-dimensional Calabi-Yau manifold. This manifold has been shown by string theory to be the topological shape of extra, curled-up dimensions on the Planck-scale at every point in the universe. It is the extra dimensions of this shape that allow the strings to “wiggle” in the necessary ways to represent all the fundamental particles predicted by the...

A pretty wild narcissistic number is an integer N that can be represented by mathematically manipulating its digits (in order) using only the arithmetical operations of + - x ÷ ^ √ ! . Here are some examples: There are plenty more listed here.
