Abstract

Statistics of the inverse participation ratio (IPR) at the critical point of the localization transition is studied numerically for the power-law random banded matrix model. It is shown that the IPR distribution function is scale-invariant, with a power-law asymptotic ``tail''. This scale invariance implies that the fractal dimensions are non-fluctuating quantities, contrary to a recent claim in the literature. A recently proposed relation between and the spectral compressibility is violated in the regime of strong multifractality, with in the limit .
