Abstract: | In this paper we use the concept of wavelet sets, as introduced by X. Dai and D. Larson, to decompose the wavelet representation of the discrete group associated to an arbitrary integer dilation matrix as a direct integral of irreducible monomial representations. In so doing we generalize a result of F. Martin and A. Valette in which they show that the wavelet representation is weakly equivalent to the regular representation for the Baumslag-Solitar groups. |
