Trees in art, as well as life, often follow simple mathematical rules, study finds
Like the branches, twigs and leaves of a tree, fractals repeat the same patterns across different scales. Snowflakes, ...

Branching channels: How tree-structured representations in the brain maintain and update information
Tree structures have been widely used to model ... dynamic neural representation in the network's state space, called a "branching channel." The network's state "flows" in this channel and is ...

Under the electron microscope, DNA molecules undergoing transcription exhibit Christmas-tree-like structures.
the tree branches (granular strings attached to the DNA) are RNA molecules that have been transcribed from the DNA. As the transcription apparatus moves down the DNA, transcribing more of the ...

Scientists uncover hidden maths depicted in da Vinci and Mondrian artwork
Trees in nature follow a “self-similar” branching pattern called a fractal, in which the same structures repeat at smaller and smaller scales from the trunk to the branch tip. In the new study ...

Art and science illuminate the same subtle proportions in tree branches
My colleagues and I try to explain how treelike structures such as veins ... heal themselves and predict how trees will respond to a changing climate. Branching also shows up in ant foraging ...
