Decomposition of weighted Triebel-Lizorkin and Besov spaces on the ball

Weighted Triebel–Lizorkin and Besov spaces on the unitball B^d in ^d with weights w_µ(x)=(1–|x|²)^µ–1/2,µ0, are introduced and explored. A decomposition schemeis developed in terms of almost exponentially localized polynomialelements (needlets) {}, {} and it is shown that the membershipof a distribution to the weighted Triebel–Lizorkin orBesov spaces can be determined by the size of the needlet coefficients{f, } in appropriate sequence spaces.
