is it possible to find a function f different from [tex]f(x)=constant[/tex]

with the property [tex]f(kx)=f(x)[/tex] for some real and positive 'k' ?

this is somehow 'dilation periodicity' is the equivalent to the periodic funciton [tex]f(x+k)=f(x)[/tex] for some positive 'k' for the traslation group
