The spectrum of the wavelet Galerkin operator (Q1764273)

Let \(\{V_j:j\in {\mathbb Z}\}\) be an \(N\)-scale multiresolution analysis with a scaling function \(\phi\) and a low pass filter \(m_0\). We define the associated wavelet Galerkin operator \(R_{m_0}\) by \[ R_{m_0}(f)(z) = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{w^N=z} | m_0| ^2(w) f(w). \] With some additional assumptions on the function \(m_0\), the paper under review describes the spectra and eigenvalues of \(R_{m_0}\) on the spaces \(C({\mathbb T})\) and \(L^p({\mathbb R})\), \(1\leq p \leq \infty\).
