Recovering scaling function from auxiliary function. Cascade algorithm.


iven MATH satisfying the definition ( QMF conditions ) on may construct the auxiliary function (see the proposition ( Scaling equation )) MATH If the scaling function $\phi$ exists then it would satisfy MATH Then, assuming convergence of the product, MATH

Proposition

(Convergence of product) If the series MATH converge absolutely then the product $\prod _{n}z_{n}$ converges absolutely.

Proof

We calculate MATH Since MATH starting from some $n$ MATH and MATH for some $c=const$ .

Proposition

(Finite QMF convergence) Let MATH be a finite QMF. Then for any $R>0$ the product MATH converges absolutely and in MATH .

Proof

We estimate MATH and utilize the proposition ( QMF property 2 )-a: MATH MATH MATH Therefore MATH Since MATH is finite, the sum MATH has some finite value MATH . We use the proposition ( Convergence of product ), convergence of MATH is investigated by looking at MATH and the statement follows.

Proposition

(Cascade algorithm) Let MATH be a finite QMF. Define operator $A$ : MATH and let MATH be a sequence such that MATH Then MATH

Proof

Note that by proposition ( QMF property 2 )-d and formulas ( Property of scale and transport 2 ),( Property of scale and transport 3 ), MATH Thus MATH

By calculations of the proof of the proposition ( Scaling equation ), MATH thus MATH and by the proposition ( Finite QMF convergence ) MATH Combine this with $\left( \#\right) $ , proposition ( Basic properties of Fourier transform ) and the desired conclusion follows.

Proposition

A QMF MATH is finite if and only if $\phi$ has finite support.

Proof

( $\Rightarrow$ ). $\phi$ is obtained by iterations MATH of the proposition ( Cascade algorithm ). The scaling within the operator $A$ halves the support of $\eta_{m}$ and the summation increases it linearly. Such operation, when applied repeatedly, leads to compact support.

( $\Leftarrow$ ) If $\phi$ has compact support then MATH is finite by the defining formula of the proposition ( Scaling equation ).
