Let W be a nonnegative random variable with expectation 1. For all r ⩾ 2, we consider the total mass Z ∞ r of the associated Mandelbrot multiplicative cascade in the r-ary tree. For all n ⩾ 1, we also consider the total mass Z n r of the measure at height n in the r-ary tree. Liu, Rio, Rouault [11, 12, 18] established large deviation results for (Z n r) r⩾2 for all n ∈ 1, ∞ (resp. for n = ∞) in case W has an everywhere finite cumulant generating function Λ W (resp. W is bounded). Here, we extend these results to the case where Λ W is only finite on a neighborhood of zero. And we establish all deviation results (moderate, large, and very large deviations). It is noticeable that we obtain nonconvex rate functions. Moreover, our proof of upper bounds of deviations for (Z ∞ r) r⩾2 rely on the moment bound instead of the standard Chernoff bound.
