Scale Invariance and Beyond [E-Book] : Les Houches Workshop, March 10–14, 1997 / edited by B. Dubrulle, F. Graner, D. Sornette.
This book is an excellent introduction to the concept of scale invariance, which is a growing field of research with wide applications. It describes where and how symmetry under scale transformation (and its various forms of partial breakdown) can be used to analyze solutions of a problem without th...
