Multifractal Fluctuations in Seismic Interspike Series
  Multifractal fluctuations in the time dynamics of seismicity data have been analyzed. We investigated the interspike intervals (times between successive earthquakes) of one of the most seismically active areas of central Italy by using the Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (MF-DFA). Analyzing the time evolution of the multifractality degree of the series, a loss of multifractality during the aftershocks is revealed. This study aims to suggest another approach to investigate the complex dynamics of earthquakes.
