We consider two models (A and B) which can describe both two dimensional fragmentation and stochastic fractals. Model A exhibits multifractality on a unique support when describing a fragmentation process and on one of infinitely many possible supports when describing stochastic fractals. Model B obeys simple scaling.
We introduce three models of fragmentation in which the largest fragment in the system can be broken at each time step with a fixed probability, p. We solve these models exactly in the long time limit to reveal stable time invariant (scaling) solutions which depend on p and the precise details of the fragmentation process. Various features of these models are compared with those of conventional fragmentation models.
