A new exact method for obtaining the multifractal spectrum of multiscaled multinomial measures and IFS invariant measures

摘要

In this paper we present a new exact method for obtaining the multifractal spectrum of multiscaled multinomial measures and invariant measures associated with iterated function systems (IFS). A multinomial measure is shown to be generated as the invariant measure of an associated IFS. Then, the multifractal spectrum of the measure is determined by a couple of parametric implicit equations. This analysis generalizes some results previously obtained for the case of single-scaled multinomial measures (e.g., the binomial measure). A geometric interpretation of this new framework working in the space of codes of the IFS gives new insight into the nature of the multifractal formalism. This paper extends the results presented in Gutierrez et. al. Fractals 4, (1996) 17-27. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved. [References: 16]
