Approximation studies have of late become very interesting and practically useful in several areas of research and applications. Especially the wavelet analysis has turned out to be a fast-expanding field of mathematical investigations having direct applications in many directions such as image analysis, image compression, numerical analysis etc. Here, the authors have defined generalized cardinal B-splines as convolution products of characteristic functions of self-affine lattice tiles with respect to a given integer scaling matrix. A multi-resolution analysis is defined. In this paper, the questions of stability and linear independence properties of the integer translates of the generalized spline functions are worked out. A characterization of the scaling matrices to which the construction procedure of the generalized spline function can be applied, is also given. After an introduction, the generalized cardinal B-splines, stability and independence are defined. Then classification of the scaling matrices and the shape of the self-affine tiles are discussed. Four explicit explanatory examples are treated in detail. Finally, the wavelets are explained and illustrated at length. The authors, with several relevant theorems, lemmas, remarks and pictorial representations have brought out the significance of the topics briefly, but clearly.
