Scale Relativity and Fractal Space-Time: Theory and Applications

Abstract: In the first part of this contribution, we review the development of the theory of scale relativity and its geometric framework constructed in terms of a fractal and nondifferentiable continuous space-time. This theory leads (i) to a generalization of possible physically relevant fractal laws, written as partial differential equation acting in the space of scales, and (ii) to a new geometric foundation of quantum mechanics and gauge field theories and their possible generalisations.In the second part, we discu… Show more

“…According to our understanding of the basic concepts of the theory [10], such an artificial tuning is unnecessary in the case of a natural fractal geometry being present along with the presence of dynamic potentials driving the transfer processes. The latter involve oscillators of different sizes and scales.…”
