It is proved that if ${\phi }_n$ is a complete orthonormal system of bounded functions and ɛ>0, then there exists a measurable set E ⊂ [0,1] with measure |E|>1-ɛ, a measurable function μ(x), 0 < μ(x) ≤ 1, μ(x) ≡ 1 on E, and a series of the form ${\sum }_{k=1}^{\infty }{c}_k{\phi }_k\left(x\right)$, where $c_k\in l_q$ for all q>2, with the following properties: 1. For any p ∈ [1,2) and $f\in L_{\mu }^p[0,1]=f:{ʃ}_0^1{\left|f\left(x\right)\right|}^p\mu \left(x\right)dx<\infty$ there are numbers ${\varepsilon }_k$, k=1,2,…, ${\varepsilon }_k$ = 1 or 0, such that $li{m}_{n\to \infty }{ʃ}_0^1{|{\sum }_{k=1}^n{\varepsilon }_k{c}_k{\phi }_k\left(x\right)-f\left(x\right)|}^p\mu \left(x\right)dx=0.$ 2. For every p ∈ [1,2) and $f\in L_{\mu }^p[0,1]$ there are a function $g\in L^1[0,1]$ with g(x) = f(x) on E and numbers ${\delta }_k$, k=1,2,…, ${\delta }_k=1$ or 0, such that $li{m}_{n\to \infty }{ʃ}_0^1{|{\sum }_{k=1}^n{\delta }_k{c}_k{\phi }_k\left(x\right)-g\left(x\right)|}^p\mu \left(x\right)dx=0$,...

The single underlying method of averaging the wavelet functional over translates yields first a new completeness criterion for orthonormal wavelet systems, and then a unified treatment of known results on characterization of wavelets on the Fourier transform side, on preservation of frame bounds by oversampling, and on equivalence of affine and quasiaffine frames. The method applies to multiwavelet systems in all dimensions, to dilation matrices that are in some cases not expanding, and to dual...

We show that there are Hilbert spaces constructed from the Hausdorff measures Hs on the real line R with 0 &lt; s &lt; 1 which admit multiresolution wavelets. For the case of the middle-third Cantor set C ⊂ [0,1], the Hilbert space is a separable subspace of L2(R, (dx)s) where s = log3(2). While we develop the general theory of multiresolutions in fractal Hilbert spaces, the emphasis is on the case of scale 3 which covers the traditional Cantor set C.
