Many authors have established rigorously multifractal formalism for a number of deterministic and random self-similar measures under the open set condition of \textit{J. E. Hutchinson} [Indiana Univ. Math. J. 30, 713-747 (1981; Zbl 0598.28011)] and its variants. In this paper, the authors consider the \(L^q\)-spectrum of the Bernoulli convolution measure. Let \(S_1(x) = \rho x\) and \(S_2(x) = \rho x +(1 - \rho)\), where \(1/2 < \rho < 1\), be two similitudes. Then \(S_1\) and \(S_2\) do not satisfy the open set condition. Let \(\mu\) be the associated infinitely convolved Bernoulli measure (ICBM), i.e., \(\mu\) is the self-similar measure that satisfies \[ \mu = {1 \over 2} \mu \circ S_1^{-1} + {1 \over 2} \mu \circ S_2^{-1}. \] They prove an exact formula for the \(L^q\)-spectrum (\(q > 0\)) for the ICBM \(\mu\) when \(\rho = {\sqrt{5} - 1 \over 2}\). Their argument is based on a set of higher order self-similar identities for \(\mu\) with \(\rho = {\sqrt{5} - 1 \over 2}\) given by \textit{R. S. Strichartz, A. Taylor} and \textit{T. Zhang} [Exp. Math. 4, No. 2, 101-128 (1995; Zbl 0860.28005)].
