On the multifractal spectrum of the branching measure on a Galton–Watson tree

Abstract

Suppose that μ is the branching measure on the boundary of a supercritical Galton–Watson tree with offspring distribution N such that E[N log N] < ∞ and P{N = 1} > 0. We determine the multifractal spectrum of μ using a method different from that proposed by Shieh and Taylor, which is flawed.
