Real Clifford Algebra Cl(n,0), n=2,3(mod 4) Wavelet Transform

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show how for n=2,3(mod  4)n=2,3 (\mod 4) continuous Clifford (geometric) algebra (GA) ClnCl_n-valued admissible wavelets can be constructed using the similitude group SIM(n)SIM(n). We strictly aim for real geometric interpretation, and replace the imaginary unit $i \in \C$ therefore with a GA blade squaring to −1-1. Consequences due to non-commutativity arise. We express the admissibility condition in terms of a ClnCl_{n} Clifford Fourier Transform and then derive a set of important properties such as dilation, translation and rotation covariance, a reproducing kernel, and show how to invert the Clifford wavelet transform. As an example, we introduce Clifford Gabor wavelets. We further invent a generalized Clifford wavelet uncertainty principle.
