Assuming that quantum dots are treated as artificial impurities we consider the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida interaction between their localized magnetic moments. We prove that due to the quantum confinement the carriers that mediate interactions can exhibit fractional spectral dimension. Basing on this result we discuss magnetic interactions in coupled system of quantum dots and leads.
