Abstract

Methods from noncommutative harmonic analysis are used to develop an abstract theory of orthonormal wavelets. The relationship between the existence of an orthonormal wavelet and the existence of a multi-resolution is clarified, and four theorems guaranteeing the existence of wavelets are proved. As a special case of the fourth theorem, a generalization of known results on the existence of smooth wavelets having compact support is obtained.
