Interpolatory Band-Limited Wavelet Bases on the Sphere

Constructive Approximation Aims and scope

Abstract

In the present paper, we construct space-localized bases for the space $W_n^n:=\oplus_{k=n+1}^{2n} Harm_k({\Bbb S}^2)$ of band-limited functions on the sphere. Each of the basis functions is a zonal polynomial centered at a point $\eta_i\in{\Bbb S}^2$. The goal of this work is to describe explicit fundamental systems $\lbrace\eta_j\rbrace_{j=1,\dots,M_n}$ for the space $W_n^n$ which finally lead to space- and frequency-localized polynomial bases for $L^2({\Bbb S}^2)$.
