The equality of scaling, geometric and symbolic multifractal spectra

Let (Φ,p)(\mathbf{\Phi},\mathbf{p}) be a weighted self-similar system, let μ\mu be its associated self-similar measure, and let [tmin,tmax][t_{\min},t_{\max}] be the interval of relevant scaling regularity values. Write f(α)f(\alpha) for the scaling multifractal spectrum, f^(t)\hat{f}(t) for its concave envelope on [tmin,tmax][t_{\min},t_{\max}], and fgf_g and fsf_s for the geometric and symbolic Hausdorff multifractal spectra, respectively.

Spectrum equality conjecture. For a self-similar measure μ\mu and all t[tmin,tmax]t\in[t_{\min},t_{\max}],

f^(t)=fg(t)=fs(t).\hat{f}(t)=f_g(t)=f_s(t).

This conjecture concerns the agreement of the scaling, geometric and symbolic approaches to the multifractal analysis of self-similar measures. It was originally stated in a similar but more restrictive setting in Conjecture 5.8 of the cited work, and is not addressed further in the present paper.
