Abstract

We consider the multifractal structure of the Bernoulli convolution νλ, where λ-1 is a Salem number in (1,2). Let τ(q) denote the Lq spectrum of νλ. We show that if α∈ [τ'(+∞), τ'(0+)], then the level set E(α):=x∈ \R: limr→ 0(log νλ([x-r, x+r]))/(log r)=α is non-empty and dimHE(α)=τ^*(α), where τ^* denotes the Legendre transform of τ. This result extends to all self-conformal measures satisfying the asymptotically weak separation condition. We point out that the interval [τ'(+∞), τ'(0+)] is not a singleton when λ-1 is the largest real root of the polynomial xn-xn-1-... -x+1, n≥ 4. An example is constructed to show that absolutely continuous self-similar measures may also have rich multifractal structures.
