Abstract

In this paper, we study some aspects related to college grammar. A collage consists essentially of a set of parts being geometric objects and a set of hyperedges being subjects of further replacement. A set of collages represents a set of geometric patterns where each pattern is just the union of the parts of a collage. By overlay of the represented patterns, a set of collages yields a fractal pattern.
