Abstract
Under the heading of similar relationships between variables, the previous chapter reconciled some phenomena which appeared at first sight to be different. In a complementary manner, this chapter will go into the theme of links: here we are dealing with a single phenomenon, or context at least, bringing our thoughts together. This will involve different approaches, especially in terms of the scale of the description used: macroscopic, mesoscopic, or even particle-based. Once again, the example will be taken from everyday life and the physics simple.
