Abstract: | In recent years, a rapidly growing literature has focussed on the construction of wavelet systems to analyze functions defined
on the sphere. Our purpose in this paper is to generalize these constructions to situations where sections of line bundles,
rather than ordinary scalar-valued functions, are considered. In particular, we propose needlet-type spin wavelets as an extension of the needlet approach recently introduced by Narcowich et al. in SIAM J. Math. Anal. 38, 574–594 (2006) and J. Funct. Anal. 238, 530–564 (2006) and then considered for more general manifolds by Geller and Mayeli in Math. Z. 262, 895–927 (2009), Math. Z. 263, 235–264 (2009), and Indiana Univ. Math. J. (2009). We discuss localization properties in the real and harmonic domains, and investigate stochastic properties for the analysis
of spin random fields. Our results are strongly motivated by cosmological applications, in particular in connection to the
analysis of Cosmic Microwave Background polarization data. |
