Abstract
Scalable sets are defined and their properties studied, It is shown th at the set of scalable sets is the isomorphism closure of the set of r ankable sets and that every scalable set is P-isomorphic to some ranka ble set. Scalable sets coincide with P-printable sets when sparse, and with P-paddable sets when thick. Using scalability as a tool, the P-i somorphism question for polynomial-time computable sets of similar den sities is examined.
