J. Luevano, V. Penne, S. Vaienti Multifractal spectrum via return times. (40K, LATeX 2e) ABSTRACT. A multifractal spectrum related to return times is exhibited: the method consists in computing the sum of the first returns of the center of balls in a covering of the invariant set. This spectrum partly recovers that of the generalized dimensions for the invariant measure. Some numerical examples are presented and the comparison with the usual multifractal analysis for measures is discussed.
