Estimation of dimension functions of band-limited wavelets

The dimension function D_ψ of a band-limited wavelet ψ is bounded by n if its Fourier transform is supported in −(2ⁿ⁺²/3)π,(2ⁿ⁺²/3)π]. For each and for each , 0<<δ=δ(n), we construct a wavelet ψ with supp

such that D_ψ>n on a set of positive measure, which proves that −(2ⁿ⁺²/3)π,(2ⁿ⁺²/3)π] is the largest symmetric interval for estimating the dimension function by n. This construction also provides a family of (uncountably many) wavelet sets each consisting of infinite number of intervals.
