Honors Thesis Presentation: "The Asymptotics of Filter and Wavelet Coefficients"

Speaker: Matthew Stone, Washington University in Saint Louis

Abstract: We present results of Strang and Shen that locate with high precision the zeros of high degree polynomials used in the construction of an important class of orthogonal wavelets known as the Daubechies wavelets. We then give applications to problems in wavelet analysis and present similar analyses of zeros of polynomials used in the construction of filters.
