Continuous Wavelets and Frames on Stratified Lie Groups I

Abstract

Let G be a stratified Lie group and L be the sub-Laplacian on G. Let 0 \neq f\in S(R^+). We show that Lf(L)δ, the distribution kernel of the operator Lf(L), is an admissible function on G. We also show that, if ξf(ξ) satisfies Daubechies' criterion, then L f(L)δgenerates a frame for any sufficiently fine lattice subgroup of G.
