    Abstract:
    By analyzing chaotic states of the one-dimensional Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation for system sizes~$L$ in the range~$79 \le L \le 93$, we show that the Lyapunov fractal dimension~$D$ scales {\em microextensively}, increasing linearly with~$L$ even for increments~$\DeltaL$ that are small compared to the average cell size of~$9$ and to various correlation lengths. This suggests that a spatially homogeneous chaotic system does not have to increase its size by some characteristic amount to increase its dynamical complexity.
