This paper introduces multiresolution analyses with composite dilations (AB-MRAs) and addresses frame multiresolution analyses with composite dilations in the setting of reducing subspaces ofL2(ℝn)(AB-RMRAs). We prove that an AB-MRA can induce an AB-RMRA on a given reducing subspaceL2(S)∨. For a general expansive matrix, we obtain the characterizations for a scaling function to generate an AB-RMRA, and the main theorems generalize the classical results. Finally, some examples are provided to illustrate the general theory.

Oriented Approach

In The Enterprise of Knowledge (Levi, 1980a), I proposed a general theory of rational choice which I intended as a characterization of a prescriptive theory of ideal rationality. A cardinal tenet of this theory is that assessments of expected value or expected utility in the Bayesian sense may not be representable by a numerical indicator or indeed induce an ordering of feasible options in a context of deliberation. My reasons for taking this position are related to my commitment to the inquiry-oriented approach to human knowledge and valuation favored by the American pragmatists, Charles Peirce and John Dewey. A feature of any acceptable view of inquiry ought to be that during an inquiry points under dispute ought to be kept in suspense pending resolution through inquiry.

The Scaling Function

In this paper, under a mild condition, the construction of compactly supported [Formula: see text]-wavelets is obtained. Wavelets inherit the symmetry of the corresponding scaling function and satisfy the vanishing moment condition originating in the symbols of the scaling function. An example is also given to demonstrate the general theory.

AbstractThe present note is part of a series of articles targeting the theory of Abel maps associated with complex normal surface singularities with rational homology sphere links (Nagy and Némethi in Math Annal 375(3):1427–1487, 2019; Nagy and Némethi in Adv Math 371:20, 2020; Nagy and Némethi in Pure Appl Math Q 16(4):1123–1146, 2020). Besides the general theory, by the study of specific families we wish to show the power of this new method. Indeed, using the general theory of Abel maps applied for elliptic singularities in this note we are able to prove several key properties for elliptic singularities (e.g. the statements of the next paragraph), which by ‘old’ techniques were not reachable. If $$({\widetilde{X}},E)\rightarrow (X,o)$$ ( X ~ , E ) → ( X , o ) is the resolution of a complex normal surface singularity and $$c_1:{\mathrm{Pic}}({\widetilde{X}})\rightarrow H^2({\widetilde{X}},{\mathbb {Z}})$$ c 1 : Pic ( X ~ ) → H 2 ( X ~ , Z ) is the Chern class map, then $${\mathrm{Pic}}^{l'}({\widetilde{X}}):= c_1^{-1}(l')$$ Pic l ′ ( X ~ ) : = c 1 - 1 ( l ′ ) has a (Brill–Noether type) stratification $$W_{l', k}:= \{{\mathcal {L}}\in {\mathrm{Pic}}^{l'}({\widetilde{X}})\,:\, h^1({\mathcal {L}})=k\}$$ W l ′ , k : = { L ∈ Pic l ′ ( X ~ ) : h 1 ( L ) = k } . In this note we determine it for elliptic singularities together with the stratification according to the cycle of fixed components. E.g., we show that the closure of any $$W(l',k)$$ W ( l ′ , k ) is an affine subspace. For elliptic singularities we also characterize the End Curve Condition and Weak End Curve Condition in terms of the Abel map, we provide several characterization of them, and finally we show that they are equivalent.

<p>In this paper we present an example in the setting of closure spaces that fits in the general theory on “complete objects” as developed by G. C. L. Brümmer and E. Giuli. For V the class of epimorphic embeddings in the construct Cl<sub>0</sub> of T<sub>0</sub> closure spaces we prove that the class of V-injective objects is the unique firmly V-reflective subconstruct of Cl0. We present an internal characterization of the Vinjective objects as “complete” ones and it turns out that this notion of completeness, when applied to the topological setting is much stronger than sobriety. An external characterization of completeness is obtained making use of the well known natural correspondence of closures with complete lattices. We prove that the construct of complete T<sub>0</sub> closure spaces is dually equivalent to the category of complete lattices with maps preserving the top and arbitrary joins.</p>

Five Disciplines

During ambulation, every maneuver causes the feet to impose a tangential loading at each contact with the floor. If the frictional resistance at the contact point is less than the associated tangential loading, slipping occurs and sometimes falling. There are five disciplines, some recently developed, that enable one to develop the general theory for predicting the number of walkers who will slip within a given time period on a statistically homogeneous and isotropic floor. These include force-plate studies, floor duty cycles, tribometry, extreme value theory of slipperiness, and floor reliability theory. When used with some additional bookkeeping notions, the general theory will be extended to real floors traversed by walkers with multiple ambulation styles and wearing a variety of footwear. In contrast, conventional slip and fall theory does not account for floor usage, different footwear and various ambulation styles, nor can it be used to determine the number of walkers who actually slip on a given floor.

Reducing Subspaces

We consider the reducing subspaces ofMzNonAα2(Dk), wherek≥3,zN=z1N1⋯zkNk, andNi≠Njfori≠j. We prove that each reducing subspace ofMzNis a direct sum of some minimal reducing subspaces. We also characterize the minimal reducing subspaces in the cases thatα=0andα∈(-1,+∞)∖Q, respectively. Finally, we give a complete description of minimal reducing subspaces ofMzNonAα2(D3)withα>-1.

It can be seen from the literature that nonhomogeneous wavelet frames are much simpler to characterize and construct than homogeneous ones. In this work, we address such problems in reducing subspaces of L2ℝd. A characterization of nonhomogeneous wavelet dual frames is obtained, and by using the characterization, an MOEP and an MEP are derived under general assumptions for such wavelet dual frames.

The Given

In real life application all signals are not obtained from uniform shifts; so there is a natural question regarding analysis and decompositions of these types of signals by a stable mathematical tool.  This gap was filled by Gabardo and Nashed [11]   by establishing a constructive algorithm based on the theory of spectral pairs for constructing non-uniform wavelet basis in \(L^2(\mathbb R)\). In this setting, the associated translation set \(\Lambda =\left\{ 0,r/N\right\}+2\,\mathbb Z\) is no longer a discrete subgroup of \(\mathbb R\) but a spectrum associated with a certain one-dimensional spectral pair and the associated dilation is an even positive integer related to the given spectral pair. In this paper, we characterize the scaling function for non-uniform multiresolution analysis on local fields of positive characteristic (LFPC). Some properties of wavelet scaling function associated with non-uniform multiresolution analysis (NUMRA) on LFPC are also established.

Band Signal

Frequency domain of bandlimited frame multiresolution analyses (MRAs) plays a key role when derived framelets are applied into narrow-band signal processing and data analysis. In this study, we give a characterization of frequency domain of weakly translation invariant frame scaling functions [Formula: see text] with frequency domain [Formula: see text]. Based on it, we further study convex and ball-shaped frequency domains. If frequency domain of bandlimited frame scaling function [Formula: see text] is convex and completely symmetric about the origin, then it must be weakly invariant and [Formula: see text]. If [Formula: see text] has a ball-shaped frequency domain, the ball radius must be bounded by [Formula: see text]. These frequency domain characters are owned uniquely by frame scaling functions and not by orthogonal scaling functions.
