The investigation of phenomena involving complex geometry, patterns and scaling has gone through a spectacular development and applications in the past decades. For this relatively short time, geometrical and/or temporal scaling have been shown to represent the common aspects of many processes occurring in an unusually diverse range of fields including physics, mathematics, biology, chemistry, economics, engineering and technology, and human behavior. As a rule, the complex nature of a phenomenon is manifested in the underlying intricate geometry which in most of the cases can be described in terms of objects with non-integer (fractal) dimension. In other cases, the distribution of events in time or various other quantities show specific scaling behavior, thus providing a better understanding of the relevant factors determining the given processes.

Using fractal geometry and scaling as a language in the related theoretical, numerical and experimental investigations, it has been possible to get a deeper insight into previously intractable problems. Among many others, a better understanding of growth phenomena, turbulence, iterative functions, colloidal aggregation, biological pattern formation, stock markets and inhomogeneous materials has emerged through the application of such concepts as scale invariance, self-affinity and multifractality.

The main challenge of the journal devoted exclusively to the above kinds of phenomena lies in its interdisciplinary nature; it is our commitment to bring together the most recent developments in these fields so that a fruitful interaction of various approaches and scientific views on complex spatial and temporal behaviors in both nature and society could take place.

過去幾十年，對涉及復(fù)雜幾何、圖案和縮放的現(xiàn)象的研究經(jīng)歷了驚人的發(fā)展和應(yīng)用。在這相對較短的時間內(nèi)，幾何和/或時間縮放已被證明代表了許多過程的共同方面，這些過程發(fā)生在異常多樣化的領(lǐng)域，包括物理、數(shù)學(xué)、生物、化學(xué)、經(jīng)濟學(xué)、工程和技術(shù)以及人類行為。通常，現(xiàn)象的復(fù)雜性質(zhì)體現(xiàn)在底層的復(fù)雜幾何中，在大多數(shù)情況下，可以用非整數(shù)（分形）維數(shù)的對象來描述。在其他情況下，事件隨時間或其他各種量的分布顯示出特定的縮放行為，從而更好地理解決定給定過程的相關(guān)因素。

在相關(guān)的理論、數(shù)值和實驗研究中使用分形幾何和縮放作為語言，可以更深入地了解以前難以解決的問題。除其他外，通過應(yīng)用諸如尺度不變性、自親和性和多重分形性等概念，人們對增長現(xiàn)象、湍流、迭代函數(shù)、膠體聚集、生物模式形成、股票市場和非均質(zhì)材料有了更好的理解。

該期刊專門針對上述現(xiàn)象，其主要挑戰(zhàn)在于其跨學(xué)科性質(zhì)；我們致力于匯集這些領(lǐng)域的最新發(fā)展，以便各種方法和科學(xué)觀點在自然和社會的復(fù)雜空間和時間行為上進行富有成效的互動。
