We discuss some general aspects of 'multifractal scaling' in the context of continuum Lagrangian field theories and, in particular, an observation of Duplantier and Ludwig that sequences of scaling variables which couple additively in their operator product expansion (OPE) exhibit multifractal scali

In fully developed turbulence, intermittency is classically characterized by z E Γ°qΓ, the Eulerian scaling exponent of structure functions. The same approach can be used in a Lagrangian framework, using z L Γ°qΓ to characterize the temporal intermittency of the velocity of a particle advected by a tu
In the past five to ten years mounting evidence has arisen indicating that the large-scale spatial number density of galaxies may be governed by fractal or multifractal statistics. In this paper we extend this idea by searching for multifractal behaviour in other density fields. Namely, generalized
