N-dimensional affine Weyl-Heisenberg wavelets
Classical notions of wavelets and multiresolution analyses deal with the Hilbert space L²(ℝ) and the standard translation and dilation operators. Key in the study of these subjects is the low-pass filter, which is a periodic function h ∈ L²([0,1)) that satisfies the classical quadrature mirror filter equation |h(x)|²+|h(x+1/2)|² = 2. This equation is satisfied almost everywhere with respect to Lebesgue measure on the torus. Generalized multiresolution analyses and wavelets exist in abstract Hilbert...
All wavelets constructed so far for the Hardy space H²(ℝ) are MSF wavelets. We construct a family of H²-wavelets which are not MSF. An equivalence relation on H²-wavelets is introduced and it is shown that the corresponding equivalence classes are non-empty. Finally, we construct a family of H²-wavelets with Fourier transform not vanishing in any neighbourhood of the origin.
We build orthonormal and biorthogonal wavelet bases of L2(R2) with dilation matrices of determinant 2. As for the one dimensional case, our construction uses a scaling function which solves a two-scale difference equation associated to a FIR filter. Our wavelets are generated from a single compactly supported mother function. However, the regularity of these functions cannot be derived by the same approach as in the one dimensional case. We review existing techniques to evaluate the regularity of...
