... First we introduce the iteration theory of quadratic polynomials and the classical ?Mandelbrot set? as an area of mathematics that is interesting, deep, and beautiful, but that seems apparently useless. Then we discuss Newton's root-finding methods, especially in order to find roots of complex polynomials: this is a classical theory that is generally known as useful. In particular, we show some very recent results on the theory of Newton's method that remained open for many years. ...
