Extract

In this note, we investigate those Hausdorff measures which obey a simple scaling law. Consider a continuous increasing function θ defined on with θ(0)= 0 and let be the corresponding Hausdorff measure. We say that obeys an order α scaling law provided whenever K⊂ and c> 0, then

or, equivalently, if T is a similarity map of with similarity ratio c:
