%0 Journal Article %T Charaterisation of function spaces via mollification; fractal quantities for distributions %A Hans Triebel %J Journal of Function Spaces and Applications %D 2003 %I Hindawi Publishing Corporation %R 10.1155/2003/951862 %X The aim of this paper is twofold. First we characterise elements f belonging to the Besov spaces Bpqs(ℝn) with s∈ℝ,  0<p≤∞,  0<q≤∞, in terms of their mollifications. Secondly we use these results to study multifractal quantities for distributions generalising well-known corresponding quantities for Radon measures. %U http://www.hindawi.com/journals/jfsa/2003/951862/abs/
