Abstract: We present the characterization of metric spaces that are micro-, macro- or bi-uniformly equivalent to the extended Cantor set sumi=ninftyfrac2xi3i:ninIN,;(xi)iinIZin0,1IZsubsetIR, which is bi-uniformly equivalent to the Cantor bi-cube 2<IZ=(xi)iinIZin0,1IZ:existsn;foralligen;xi=0 endowed with the metric d((xi),(yi))=maxiinIZ2i|xiyi|. Those characterizations imply that any two (uncountable) proper isometrically homogeneous ultrametric spaces are coarsely (and bi-uniformly) equivalent. This implies that any two countable locally finite groups endowed with proper left-invariant metrics are coarsely equivalent. For the proof of these results we develop a technique of towers which can have an independent interest.
