Analysis of spherical monofractal and multifractal random fields
2020
The Renyi function plays an important role in the analysis of multifractal random fields. For random fields on the sphere, there are three models in the literature where the Renyi function is known explicitly. The theoretical part of the article presents multifractal random fields on the sphere and develops specific models where the Renyi function can be computed explicitly. For all considered models explicit expressions of their multifractal spectrum are obtained. Properties of the models and dependencies of their characteristics on parameters are investigated. Then these results are applied to the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation data collected from the Planck mission. The main statistical model used to describe these data in the literature is isotropic Gaussian fields. We present numerical multifractality studies and methodology based on simulating random fields, computing the Renyi function and the multifractal spectrum for different scenarios and actual CMB data. The obtained results can also find numerous potential applications for other geoscience, environmental and directional data.
