Summary
Wavelets adapted to a given self-adjoint elliptic operator are characterized by the requirement that they block-diagonalize the operator intouniformly well-conditioned and sparse blocks. These operator-adapted wavelets (gamblets) are constructed as orthogonalized hierarchies of nested optimal recovery splines obtained fromclassical/simple prewavelets(e.g., ~Haar) used as hierarchies of measurement functions. The resulting gamblet decomposition of an element in a Sobolev space is described andanalyzed.
