Summary
The de Vaucouleurs mass density relation is interpreted in terms of a fractaland cellular structure of the Universe: the relation between this fractal and cellular structure and the usually adopted cosmological conditions of homogenity and isotropy, in three-dimensional space, are critically discussed.
