Abstract
Self-similar random fractal measures were studied by Hutchinson
and Rüschendorf. Working with probability metric in complete
metric spaces, they need the first moment condition for the
existence and uniqueness of these measures. In this paper, we use contraction
method in probabilistic metric spaces to prove the existence and
uniqueness of self-similar random fractal measures replacing the
first moment condition.
