dc.descriptionWe examine the proposal that a model of the large-scale matter distribution consisting of randomly placed haloes with power-law profile, as opposed to a fractal model, can account for the observed power-law galaxy-galaxy correlations. We conclude that such model, which can actually be considered as a degenerate multifractal model, is not realistic but suggests a new picture of multifractal models, namely, as sets of fractal distributions of haloes. We analyse, according to this picture, the properties of the matter distribution produced in cosmological N-body simulations, with affirmative results; namely, haloes of similar mass have a fractal distribution with a given dimension, which grows as the mass diminishes.
