ON the self-similarity of the logistic map

The self-similarity of a quadratic, one parameter logistic map was shown. Depending on the value of a constant, four different patterns were obtained and analysed. Only for the chaotic region (R = 4) the obtained patterns were almost independent of the resolution used (the frequency of probing). Some of the analytical operations used as standard tools in investigating the maps properties were also analysed and suitably altered, where necessary.
