Abstract: The R'enyi function plays an important role in the analysis of multifractal random fields. For random fields on the sphere, there are three models in the literature where the R'enyi function is known explicitly. The theoretical part of the article presents multifractal random fields on the sphere and develops specific models where the R'enyi function can be computed explicitly. Then these results are applied to the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation data collected from the Planck mission. The main statistical model used to describe these data in the literature is isotropic Gaussian fields. We present numerical multifractality studies and methodology based on simulating random fields, computing the R'enyi function and the multifractal spectrum for different scenarios and actual CMB data.
