When randomness is introduced in multifractals, the sample-to-sample fluctuations of multifractal spectra emerge inevitably, which has motivated various studies in this field. In this work, we study a class of multinomial measures and argue the asymptotic behaviors of the multifractal function as . The so-called latent dimensions condition (LDC) is presented which states that latent dimensions may be absent in discrete random multinomial measures. In order to clarify the discovery, several examples are illustrated.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-01-06T01:20:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "multifractals imply latent dimensions", "randomness", "discrete random multinomial measures", "latent dimensions condition", "multifractal spectra emerge" ], "tags": [ "conference paper", "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
