Abstract: Let be a smooth compact oriented Riemannian manifold, and let Delta be the Laplace-Beltrami operator on . Say 0eqfinmathcalS(RR+), and that f(0)=0. For t>0, let Kt(x,y) denote the kernel of f(t2Delta). Suppose f satisfies Daubechies' criterion, and b>0. For each j, write as a disjoint union of measurable sets Ej,k with diameter at most baj, and comparable to baj if baj is sufficiently small. Take xj,kinEj,k. We then show that the functions form a frame for , for b sufficiently small (here P is the projection onto the constant functions). Moreover, we show that the ratio of the frame bounds approaches 1 nearly quadratically as the dilation parameter approaches 1, so that the frame quickly becomes nearly tight (for b sufficiently small). Moreover, based upon how well-localized a function Fin(IP)L2 is in space and in frequency, we can describe which terms in the summation FsimSF=sumjsumk<F,phij,k>phij,k are so small that they can be neglected. If n=2 and is the torus or the sphere, and f(s)=ses (the "Mexican hat" situation), we obtain two explicit approximate formulas for the phij,k, one to be used when t is large, and one to be used when t is small. Finally we explain in what sense the kernel Kt(x,y) should itself be regarded as a continuous wavelet on , and characterize the H"older continuous functions on by the size of their continuous wavelet transforms, for H"older exponents strictly between 0 and 1.
