Abstract

The power-law dependence of the angle in the angular projection of galaxy distribution is explained by assuming that in the spherical shells within a small angle the distributions are also fractal. If this local angular fractal is possessed, a fractal structure is angularly-isotropic at each occupied point though inhomogeneous, and is compatible with the present evidence claimed to be of homogeneity for galaxy distribution. Further, it is most likely to be isotropic rather than only angularly-isotropic. Several related issues are discussed.
