Field theoretic operators for multifractal moments

Condensed Matter 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

While multifractal spectra are convex, general field theoretic arguments show that power of field operators ϕf\phi^f yield a concave spectrum of exponents as function of ff. This is resolved by appropriate choice of operators to describe multifractal moments. In a Lagrangian field theory of two mutually interacting species of fields ϕ,ψ\phi,\psi, operators Off=ψfϕfO_{f'f}=\psi^{f'}\phi^f with traceless symmetry give rise to multifractal spectra of harmonic diffusion near absorbing fractals when evaluated for zero component fields.
