Wavelets and quantum algebras

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Wavelets, known to be useful in non-linear multi-scale processes and in multi-resolution analysis, are shown to have a q-deformed algebraic structure. The translation and dilation operators of the theory associate with any scaling equation a non-linear, two parameter algebra. This structure can be mapped onto the quantum group suq(2) in one limit, and approaches a Fourier series generating algebra, in another limit. A duality between any scaling function and its corresponding non-linear algebra is obtained. Examples for the Haar and B-wavelets are worked out in detail.
