The equivalence is not that obvious, have you any refs? The picture represents a rotated square/fractal but, actually, the corners are not removed as suggested in your edit.

The equivalence becomes clear if you consider the two alternative self-similarities of the image - see diagrams below. I imagine Mandelbrot or Barnsley mentions the alternative construction - I will look it up when I have more time. Gandalf61 (talk) 11:29, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• 
  Self-similarities I - removing corner squares.
• 
  Self-similarities II - keeping corner squares.

Fair enough, restoring the edit. Actually, copying the diagrams to the article.

Thank you ! I couldn't find a reference in either Mandelbrot or Barnsley, but I will keep looking. Gandalf61 (talk) 09:00, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
