The famous KPZ formula was first derived by \textit{V. G. Knizhnik, A. M. Polyakov} and \textit{A. B. Zamolodchikov} [``Fractal structure of 2D-quantum gravity'', Modern Phys. Lett. A 3, 819--826 (1988), MR0947880] via Liouville quantum gravity in a light cone gauge, building upon an earlier work of \textit{A. M. Polyakov} [``Quantum gravity in two dimensions'', Modern Phys. Lett. A 2, 893--898 (1987), MR0913671]. Shortly after, \textit{F. David} [``Conformal field theories coupled to 2-D gravity in the conformal gauge'', Modern Phys. Lett. A 3, No. 17 1651--1656 (1988), MR0981529] provided an alternative heuristic derivation of the KPZ formula by using Liouville field theory in the so-called conformal gauge. The KPZ formula has had great influence on string theory and conformal field theory, and it plays a core role in studying the connections of two-dimensional quantum gravity to random planar maps, two-dimensional lattice models, random matrix theory and Schramm-Loewner evolution. In a recent inspiring paper [Invent. Math. 185, No.~2, 333--393 (2011; Zbl 1226.81241), \url{arXiv:0808.1560}], \textit{B. Duplantier} and \textit{S. Sheffield} have provided (in a mathematically rigorous way) a geometrical KPZ formula under a similar framework as used in [MR0981529]. In the present paper, the author proves a Hausdorff dimension result for the image of two-dimensional multiplicative cascade processes, and obtains from this result a KPZ-type formula which normally has one point of phase transition.
