Mandelbrot (Benoit) papers, circa 1932-2010

Series 8. Research Articles and Other Writings

Identifier:
2102465
Scope and content:

This series consists of materials realted to Mandelbrot's research articles, chapters, forewords and other writings. Many drafts are heavily edited, and at times a single draft will contain both handwritten and computer-generated or typescript components cut and pasted together. Multiple drafts/versions of papers are often present and the writings may have a number of title variations due to frequent and extensive editing. It is not always clear which drafts were written for original publication or for later use in his Selecta or other publications such as Mandelbrot's web book on his website. The materials are arranged in alphabetical order by article title and are written solely by Mandelbrot unless otherwise noted.
