Abstract:

A connection coefficient is an integral of products of wavelet basis functions, their derivatives and their translates. It is a functional that can be used to solve PDE's by the wavelet-Galerkin method. This paper presents an exact method for evaluating connection coefficients. This is essential for the application of wavelets to the numerical solution of partial differential equations, since numerical approximations of the connection coefficients are in general unstable due to the oscillatory nature of the integrands.
