Bernstein and Jackson inequalities

150 L. Levaggi – A. Tabacco and e V B + = span e ϕ 0k : S ≤ k ≤ e L − 1 : = span e 8 . 87 The systems 8 and e 8 can be biorthogonalized if the matrix X = hϕ 0k , e ϕ 0l i, with k, l = S, . . . , ˜L − 1 is non-singular. For example, this condition is verified in the B-spline case see Proposition 12 and also [16]. As before, we set V j + : = T j 0 V + and e V j + : = e T j 0 e V + . Let us define P : L p + −→ V + as P v = X k≥S ˘v 0k ϕ 0k , ∀v ∈ L p + . 88 For any level j 0, let us set P j = T j ◦ P ◦ T −1 j . 89 Similar definitions hold for the dual operators e P j . These sequences of operators satisfy the requirements 7, 8 and 9. Following the same construction as in Sections 3 and 5, we build a multiresolution analysis that will be used to characterize the Besov spaces B s pq,00 see 3. For the scaling spaces the situation is basically the same, in fact we have only dropped some functions on the boundary. Many results hold in this context; for example, since V + is a subspace of V + , one has kvk L p + ≍   X k≥S | ˘v 0k | p   1 p , for any v ∈ V + see Proposition 5. We note that while the number of boundary wavelets does not change, they are defined in a different way since their definition depends on the projector P . In fact, one has ψ 0,m ∗ −k : = ϕ 1,k−2k+1 [0,+∞ − P ϕ 1,k−2k+1 [0,+∞ = ψ 0,m ∗ −k + S−1 X l=0 D ϕ 1,k−2k+1 , e ϕ 0l E ϕ 0l for k = 1, . . . , m ∗ .

7.1. Bernstein and Jackson inequalities

In order to use the characterization Theorems 1 and 2, we will prove Jackson- and Bernstein-type inequalities for Besov spaces B s pq,0 + or Sobolev spaces W s, p + . Let us observe that the Bernstein inequality follows from 53, because V + ⊂ V + and B s pq,0 + ⊂ B s pq + with the same semi-norms. It only remains to prove a Jackson-type inequality, that cannot be deduced directly from 55 because it depends on the projectors 88. Wavelets on the interval 151 P ROPOSITION 11. For each s such that 0 S ≤ s ≤ s L, we have kv − P j v k L p + 2 − j s |v| B s pq + , ∀v ∈ B s pq,0 + , ∀ j ∈ ✁ . Proof. We can proceed as in Proposition 7, the only difference being on the first interval I = [0, 1] and on the space of polynomials to be considered. Indeed, we consider the subspace ✁ L−1 of ✁ L−1 , i.e., the space of polynomials which are zero at zero with all their derivatives of order less than S. Then, inequality 57 holds for every v ∈ B s pq,0 + straightforward modifications of the proof of Theorem 4.2, p. 183, in [19]. Finally, we state a characterization theorem for Besov spaces B s pq,00 + based on the biorthogonal multilevel decomposition V j + , e V j + as described before. This result immediately follows from Theorem 1. T HEOREM 4. Let ϕ ∈ B s pq + for some 0 s L, 1 p, q ∞. For all 0 s s , we have B s pq,00 + =      v ∈ L p + : X j ≥0 2 sq j   X k≥S | ˆv j k | p   q p ∞      90 and |v| B s pq + ≍    X j ≥0 2 sq j   X k≥S | ˆv j k | p   q p    1 p , ∀v ∈ B s pq,00 + . 91 R EMARK 5. Since, for any s ∈ , 1 p, q ∞, 1 p + 1 p ′ = 1 q + 1 q ′ = 1, B s pq,00 + ′ = B −s p ′ q ′ + , see [23] p. 235 the extension of the previous theorem to the dual spaces negative s gives the same result of Theorem 3. R EMARK 6. As usual, if p = q = 2, s can assume the value 0. In this particular case, if ≤ s L, we get H s 00 + = v ∈ L 2 + : X j ≥0 X k≥S 2 2s j | ˆv j k | 2 +∞ =    H s + if s − 1 2 ∈ ✁ , H s 00 + if s − 1 2 ∈ ✁ , and kvk H s + ≍   X j ≥0 X k≥S 1 + 2 2s j | ˆv j k | 2   12 , ∀v ∈ H s 00 + . 92 152 L. Levaggi – A. Tabacco R EMARK 7. In Theorem 4, we have described how to characterize the family of Besov spaces B s pq,00 + using a scaling fuction ϕ ∈ B s pq + and removing S = [s ] boundary scaling functions. Of course, one can remove only S S boundary scaling functions and pro- ceed as before to construct a multiresolution analysis. In this case we characterize B s pq,00 + with 0 s ≤ S and B S pq,00 + ∩ B s pq + for every S s s .
