The characterization of a class of multivariate MRA and semi-orthogonal parseval frame wavelets

Let A be a d × d expansive matrix with ∣detA∣ = 2. This paper addresses Parseval frame wavelets (PFWs) in the setting of reducing subspaces of L2(Rd). We prove that all semi-orthogonal PFWs (semi-orthogonal MRA PFWs) are precisely the ones with their dimension functions being non-negative integer-valued (0 or 1). We also characterize all MRA PFWs. Some examples are provided.
