Abstract

We investigate the Fourier dimension, dimFμ\dim_F\mu, of Mandelbrot multiplicative cascade measures μ\mu on the dd-dimensional unit cube. We show that if μ\mu is the cascade measure generated by a sub-exponential random variable then dimFμ=min{2,dim2μ},\dim_F\mu=\min\{2,\dim_2\mu\}\,, where dim2μ\dim_2\mu is the correlation dimension of μ\mu and it has an explicit formula. For cascades on the circle SR2S\subset\mathbb{R}^2, we obtain dimFμdim2μ2+dim2μ.\dim_F\mu\ge\frac{\dim_2\mu}{2+\dim_2\mu}\,.
