Conformal theory of the dimensions of diffusion-limited aggregates

We employ the recently introduced conformal iterative construction of Diffusion-Limited Aggregates (DLA) to study the multifractal properties of the harmonic measure. The support of the harmonic measure is obtained from a dynamical process which is complementary to the iterative cluster growth. We use this method to establish the existence of a series of random scaling functions that yield, via the thermodynamic formalism of multifractals, the generalized dimensions D-q of DLA for q greater than or equal to 1. The scaling function is determined just by the last stages of the iterative growth process which are relevant to the complementary dynamics. Using the scaling relation D-3 = D-0/2, we estimate the fractal dimension of DLA to be D-0 = 1.69+/-0.03.
