Weighted Alpert wavelets

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this paper we construct a wavelet basis in weighted L^2 of Euclidean space possessing vanishing moments of a fixed order for a general locally finite positive Borel measure. The approach is based on a clever construction of Alpert in the case of Lebesgue measure that is appropriately modified to handle the general measures considered here. We then use this new wavelet basis to study a two-weight inequality for a general Calder'on-Zygmund operator on the real line and show that under suitable natural conditions, including a weaker energy condition, the operator is bounded from one weighted L^2 space to another if certain stronger testing conditions hold on polynomials. An example is provided showing that this result is logically different than existing results in the literature.


In the paper the construction of Alpert wavelets is generalized to wavelet bases defined on the multidimensional Euclidean space \(\mathbb{R}^n\) equipped with a locally finite positive Borel measure. Resulting systems are called weighted Alpert wavelets. They possess vanishing moments of a fixed order. In the case of dimension 1, the authors study uniqueness and degeneracy of the wavelets and provide additional moment conditions. In the final section weighted Alpert wavelets are used to investigate weighted inequalities for Calderón-Zygmund operators on \(\mathbb{R}.\)
