The permanence of some structural or functional property at different levels (say micro-, macro-, mega-).
'Fractals are scale invariant. WEIERSTRASS' renormalization equation is a formalization of scale invariance. See: “Self-similarity in'WEIERSTRASS function”.
D. RUELLE observes that scale invariance in space is related to scale invariance in time (1991, p. 98).
