Abstract: We construct frames of wavepackets produced by parabolic dilation, rotation and translation of (a finite sum of) Gaussians and give asymptotics on the analogue of Daubechies frame criterion. We show that the coefficients in the corresponding approximate expansion decay fast away from the wavefront set of the original data.

Review text

Wave packets as generalisations of wavelet approximations are a most successful tool in the approximation especially of Fourier integral operators. In this paper, wave packets from function spaces spanned by Gaussian functions (exponentials) are constructed and analysed just for this purpose. Among other subjects, frame operators using the said wave packets are studied, asymptotical estimates are made, expansions are considered and decay estimates are provided. The use especially of parabolic dilation and rotation on top of translation makes this article particularly interesting.
