Let $E_f({h}) $ be the set of points at which $f$ has a pointwise exponent equal to $h$. We first obtain general upper bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of these sets $E_f(h)$, for all convex functions $f$ and all $h\\geq 0$. We prove that for typical/generic (in the sense of Baire) continuous convex functions $f:[0,1]^{d}\\to \\mathbb{R} $, one has $\\dim E_f(h) =d-2+h$ for all $h\\in[1,2],$ and in addition, we obtain that the set $ E_f({h} )$ is empty if $h\\in (0,1)\\cup (1,+\\infty)$. Also, when $f$ is typical, the boundary of $[0,1]^{d}$ belongs to $E_{f}({0})$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-04-10T11:58:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "26B25", "28A80" ], "keywords": [ "typical convex functions", "multifractal properties", "continuous convex functions", "general upper bounds", "hausdorff dimension" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
