Construction of wavelet sets with certain self-similarity properties

A measurable set Q ⊂ R ⁿ is a wavelet set for an expansive matrix A if F ⁻¹ _(ΧQ) is an A-dilation wavelet. Dai, Larson, and Speegle [7] discovered the existence of wavelet sets in R _n associated with any real n ×n expansive matrix. In this work, we construct a class of compact wavelet sets which do not contain the origin and which are, up to a certain linear transformation, finite unions of integer translates of an integral selfaffine tile associated with the matrix B = A ^t. Some of these wavelet sets may have good potential for applications because of their tractable geometric shapes.
