%0 Journal Article %T A Fractal Galaxy Distribution in a Homogeneous Universe? %A Ruth Durrer %A Francesco Sylos Labini %J Physics %D 1998 %I arXiv %X In this letter we present an idea which reconciles a homogeneous and isotropic Friedmann universe with a fractal distribution of galaxies. We use two observational facts: The flat rotation curves of galaxies and the (still debated) fractal distribution of galaxies with fractal dimension D=2. Our idea can also be interpreted as a redefinition of the notion of bias. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/9804171v2
