Abstract: | Recently, Barreira and Schmeling (2000) [1] and Chen and Xiong (1999) [2] have shown, that for self-similar measures satisfying the SSC the set of divergence points typically has the same Hausdorff dimension as the support K. It is natural to ask whether we obtain a similar result for self-similar measures satisfying the OSC. However, with only the OSC satisfied, we cannot do most of the work on a symbolic space and then transfer the results to the subsets of Rd, which makes things more difficult. In this paper, by the box-counting principle we show that the set of divergence points has still the same Hausdorff dimension as the support K for self-similar measures satisfying the OSC. |
