Frisch–Parisi conjecture for prescribed multifractal spectra

About 6 years old · traced to

Let dd be a positive integer, and let Sd\mathscr{S}_{d} be the set of functions σ:R→[0,d]∪{−∞}\sigma:\mathbb{R}\to [0,d]\cup\{-\infty\} such that σ\sigma is concave and continuous, has compact support contained in (0,+∞)(0,+\infty), and has maximum dd. For every σ∈Sd\sigma\in\mathscr{S}_{d}, there exists a Baire functional space of functions defined on Rd\mathbb{R}^{d}.

Frisch–Parisi conjecture. In that Baire functional space, any typical element ff obeys some multifractal formalism and satisfies

σf=σ.\sigma_f=\sigma.

This conjecture concerns the inverse problem of constructing Baire spaces in which typical functions have a prescribed singularity spectrum and satisfy a multifractal formalism. The source describes it as a formulation considered by Jaffard and notes that Jaffard obtained a partial solution, so the full assertion is not established here.
