Osgood curve

Example of an Osgood curve, constructed by recursively removing wedges from triangles. The wedge angles shrink exponentially, as does the fraction of area removed in each level, leaving nonzero area in the final curve.

In mathematical analysis, an Osgood curve is a non-self-intersecting curve that has positive area. Despite its area, it is not possible for such a curve to cover any two-dimensional region, distinguishing them from space-filling curves. Osgood curves are named after William Fogg Osgood.
