Local dimensions of overlapping self-similar measures

Abstract

We show that any equicontractive, self-similar measure arising from the IFS of contractions (Sj)(S_{j}), with self-similar set [0,1][0,1], admits an isolated point in its set of local dimensions provided the images of Sj(0,1)S_{j}(0,1) (suitably) overlap and the minimal probability is associated with one (resp., both) of the endpoint contractions. Examples include mm-fold convolution products of Bernoulli convolutions or Cantor measures with contraction factor exceeding 1/(m+1)1/(m+1) in the biased case and 1/m1/m in the unbiased case. We also obtain upper and lower bounds on the set of local dimensions for various Bernoulli convolutions.
