I would appreciate people's opinion on Nottale's ideas. It looks fascinating to me. The more I read his papers, the less I understand the general indifference his work seems to be plagued with. I admit that his ambitions are huge. Nevertheless, his proposals are very elegant and natural, and also lead effective results, such as :
Gravitational structure formation in scale relativity (http://www.arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0310036) and On the morphogenesis of stellar flows - Application to planetary nebulae (http://www.arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0310031)
A scale-relativistic derivation of the Dirac Equation (http://www.arxiv.org/abs/hep-th/0210027)
"[...] we propose here a derivation of the Dirac equation also from a geodesic equation [...]"
Gauge field theory in scale relativity (http://www.arxiv.org/abs/hep-th/0307093)
"The aim of the present article is to give physical meaning to the ingredients of standard gauge field theory in the framework of the scale relativity theory. [...]"
cited twice by Robert Carroll (Un. of Illinois) (http://arxiv.org/find/grp_physics/1/au:+Carroll_Robert/0/1/0/all/0/1) especially in his Fisher, Kaehler, Weyl and the quantum potential (http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0406203)
Also, other authors have followed his steps :
Phase Transition in Gauge Theories and the Planck Scale Physics (http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-th/0110127)
L. V. Laperashvili (ITEP, Moscow, Russia), D. A. Ryzhikh (ITEP, Moscow, Russia)
You can find more on his homepage (http://wwwusr.obspm.fr/~nottale/), especially many papers to download. The equations work. The interpretation is doubtlessly debatable.
