Inverse problems in multifractal analysis

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

Multifractal formalism is designed to describe the distribution at small scales of the elements of Mc+(Rd)\mathcal M^+_c(\R^d), the set of positive, finite and compactly supported Borel measures on Rd\R^d. It is valid for such a measure μμ when its Hausdorff spectrum is the upper semi-continuous function given by the concave Legendre-Fenchel transform of the free energy function τμτ_μ associated with μμ; this is the case for fundamental classes of exact dimensional measures. For any function ττ candidate to be the free energy function of some μ∈Mc+(Rd)μ\in \mathcal M^+_c(\R^d), we build such a measure, exact dimensional, and obeying the multifractal formalism. This result is extended to a refined formalism considering jointly Hausdorff and packing spectra. Also, for any upper semi-continuous function candidate to be the lower Hausdorff spectrum of some exact dimensional μ∈Mc+(Rd)μ\in\mathcal M^+_c(\R^d), we build such a measure. Our results transfer to the analoguous inverse problems in multifractal analysis of Hölder continuous functions.
