Abstract
We show that there are Hilbert spaces constructed from the Hausdorff measures on the real line with which admit multiresolution wavelets. For the case of the middle-third Cantor set , the Hilbert space is a separable subspace of where . While we develop the general theory of multi-resolutions in fractal Hilbert spaces, the emphasis is on the case of scale which covers the traditional Cantor set . Introducing
we first describe the subspace in which has the following family as an orthonormal basis (ONB):
where , . Since the affine iteration systems of Cantor type arise from a certain algorithm in which leaves gaps at each step, our wavelet bases are in a sense gap-filling constructions.
