A fixation on ‘scaling up’ has captured current innovation discourses and, with it, political and economic life at large. Perhaps most visible in the rise of platform technologies, big data and concerns about a new era of monopolies, scalability thinking has also permeated public policy in the search for solutions to ‘grand societal challenges ...

Scaling Back on Scales with a Scale of Scales [PDF]
An ever-increasing number of articles are published introducing clinical scales to describe neurovascular diseases. Unfortunately, unless you are some kind of idiot savant, there are now too many scales to remember.

We present a new correspondence between a d-dimensional dynamical system and a whole family of (d+1)-dimensional systems. This new scale-holographic relation is built by the explicit introduction of a dimensionful constant which determines the size of the additional dimension.

The scales of the infrared [PDF]
Abstract In theories with long-range forces like QED or perturbative gravity, loop corrections lead to vanishing amplitudes. There are two well-known procedures to address these infrared divergences: dressing of asymptotic states and inclusion of soft emission.

Fractional Derivatives and Integrals: What Are They Needed For?
The question raised in the title of the article is not philosophical. We do not expect general answers of the form “to describe the reality surrounding us”.

Is this scaling nonlinear? [PDF]
One of the most celebrated findings in complex systems in the last decade is that different indexes y (e.g. patents) scale nonlinearly with the population x of the cities in which they appear, i.e. y ∼ x β

Rural to Urban Population Density Scaling of Crime and Property Transactions in English and Welsh Parliamentary Constituencies [PDF]
Urban population scaling of resource use, creativity metrics, and human behaviors has been widely studied. These studies have not looked in detail at the full range of human environments which represent a continuum from the most rural to heavily urban ...

Metal-halide perovskites are promising photovoltaic materials, but fundamental questions remain open due to their structural complexity. Here the authors show, by correlated microscopy and spectroscopy methods, that epitaxially induced lattice ...

Scaling properties of scale-free networks in degree-thresholding renormalization flows [PDF]
We study the statistical properties of observables of scale-free networks in the degree-thresholding renormalization (DTR) flows. For BA scale-free networks with different sizes, we find that their structural and dynamical observables have similar scaling behavior in the DTR flow.
