BP531 Fractal is tiled by three smaller copies of itself vs. fractal is tiled by five smaller copies of itself.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

More specifically, all left examples shown in this Problem have Hausdorff dimension log2(3) while all right examples have Hausdorff dimension log3(5).


Left examples can tile themselves by any power of 3 smaller same-sized copies of themselves while right examples can tile themselves by any power of 5 smaller same-sized copies of themselves.


Homage to Bongard's original three versus five Problems.

BP532 Self-tiling fractal using one size of tile vs. does not tile itself with a single size of itself.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
CROSSREFS

This is BP344 ("rep-tiles") but for fractals.

See BP1119 for the version with multiple different sizes of tile allowed.

BP543 Image depicting infinitely many objects vs. image depicting finitely many objects.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Another solution is "evokes infinity vs. not so." Or "seen as having arbitrarily fine detail." All left examples show objects getting smaller and smaller and closer and closer together approaching some limit within the box.

BP545 Solution for this problem (BP545) in English text vs. not.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

This Problem admits multiple solutions besides "Solution for this problem in English text vs. not so," some of which are listed as the left examples. Some do not depend on the English language, so this Problem is technically "solvable" without the relevant cultural information.

BP548 Due to pixelation, it is ambiguous whether the middle small shape is a resized version of the left shape or the right shape vs. there is a clear choice.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

A strange Problem relying on pixelation of digital images.
