The Mandelbrot set is a compact set, since it is closed and contained in the closed disk of radius 2 around the origin. More specifically, a point {\displaystyle c}{ displaystyle c } belongs to the Mandelbrot set if and only if<math>|P_c^n(0)|\leq 2</math> for all {\displaystyle n\geq 0.} | The Mandelbrot set is a compact set, since it is closed and contained in the closed disk of radius 2 around the origin.
