Here is what we have in the text right now: "One of them, his nephew Benoit Mandelbrot, was to discover the Mandelbrot set...". This seems to be wrong. If you go to the same Wikipedia and read the entry "Mandelbrot set" you will learn that what is called today the Mandelbrot set was not discovered by Mandelbrot (and the discoverers are given). You can also find the information there that the name "Mandelbrot set" was coined later by Adrien Douady (in order to honor Mandelbrot).Math45-oxford (talk) 13:47, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
