Multifractal analysis of Bernoulli measures on a class of homogeneous Cantor sets (Q2207662)

The present paper is devoted to investigations of multifractal properties for a class of homogeneous Cantor sets with Bernoulli measures. One can note authors' abstract: ``We study multifractal properties of Bernoulli measure \(\mu_p\) supported on homogeneous Cantor set determined by \(([0, 1], (2)_{k\ge 1}, (c_k)_{k\ge 1})\), where \(0 < p < 1/2\) and \(c_k\) is either \(d_1\) or \(d_2\) with \(0 < d_1 < d_2 < 1/2\). Let \(\underline{\theta}\) and \(\overline{\theta}\) be the lower and upper limits of the occurrence frequency of \(d_1\) in \((c_k)_{k\ge 1}\), respectively. It is proved by \textit{M. Wu} [Sci. China Ser. A 48, No. 8, 1097--1112 (2005; Zbl 1126.28010)] that, if \(\underline{\theta}=\overline{\theta}\) then the multifractal formalism holds. After given some conditions on \((c_k)_{k\ge 1}\), we get multifractal spectra for any \(0 \le \underline{\theta} < \overline{\theta} \le 1\). We show that if \(\underline{\theta}=0\) and \(\overline{\theta}=1\), the refined formalism does not hold, while Olsen's concave multifractal formalism holds in some cases. This answers a question asked by \textit{L. Olsen} [Adv. Math. 116, No. 1, 82--196 (1995; Zbl 0841.28012)]. We also show that if \(0 < \underline{\theta} < \overline{\theta} < 1\), Olsen's concave multifractal formalism does not hold.'' The notion of level sets is considered. The authors note that computing dimensions of level sets is an important problem in multifractal analysis. Special attention is given to the multifractal, singularity spectra of the Borel probability measure on a metric space. For completeness of this research, the notions of a homogeneous Moran set and of a homogeneous Cantor set are recalled, some known results are noted, and several technical lemmas are proven. Conditions under which the Borel probability measure on a metric space satisfies the multifractal formalism are discussed. Connections between investigations presented in this paper and other researches are explained.
