Multifractal Properties of Convex Hulls of Typical Continuous Functions

Abstract: We study the singularity (multifractal) spectrum of the convex hull of the typical/generic continuous functions defined on

[0, 1]^{d}

. We denote by

{m a t h b f E}_{v a r p h i}^{h}

the set of points at which

v a r p h i : [0, 1]^{d} o m a t h b b R

has a pointwise H"older exponent equal to

h

. Let

H_{f}

be the convex hull of the graph of

f

, the concave function on the top of

H_{f}

is denoted by

{v a r p h i}_{1, f} (m a t h b f x) = m a x y : (m a t h b f x, y) i n H_{f}

and

{v a r p h i}_{2, f} (m a t h b f x) = m i n y : (m a t h b f x, y) i n H_{f}

denotes the convex function on the bottom of

H_{f}

. We show that there is a dense

G_{d} e l t a

subset

c a l G s u b s e t C [0, 1]^{d}

such that for

f i n c a l G

the following properties are satisfied. For

i = 1, 2

the functions

{v a r p h i}_{i, f}

and

f

coincide only on a set of zero Hausdorff dimension, the functions

{v a r p h i}_{i, f}

are continuously differentiable on

(0, 1)^{d}

,

{m a t h b f E}_{{v a r p h i}_{i, f}}^{0}

equals the boundary of

[0, 1]^{d}

,

d i m_{H} {m a t h b f E}_{{v a r p h i}_{i, f}}^{1} = d - 1

,

d i m_{H} {m a t h b f E}_{{v a r p h i}_{i, f}}^{+ i n f t y} = d

and

{m a t h b f E}_{{v a r p h i}_{i, f}}^{h} = e m p t y s e t

if

h i n (0, + i n f t y) s e t m i n u s 1

.
