Abstract
This is not meant to be a self-contained exposition on intermittency and multifractality in fully developed turbulence. For such matters, the reader is referred to Mandelbrot (1974)[15], Monin and Yaglom (1975)[21], Frisch, Sulem and Nelkin (1978)[11], Meneveau and Sreenivasan (1991)[20], Frisch (1991)[9], Aurell et al. (1992)[2] and references therein. A detailed exposition will be found in the forthcoming book by Frisch (1995)[10]. Let us just make some brief preliminary remarks.
