When a Fourier series is used to approximate a function with a jump discontinuity, the Gibbs phenomenon always exists. This similar phenomenon exists for wavelets expansions. Based on the Gibbs phenomenon of a Fourier series and wavelet expansions of a function with a jump discontinuity, in this paper, we consider that a Gibbs phenomenon occurs for the p-ary subdivision schemes. Similar to the method of (Appl. Math. Lett. 76:157-163, 2018), we generalize the results about the stationary binary subdivision schemes in (Appl. Math. Lett. 76:157-163, 2018) to the case of p-ary subdivision schemes. By considering the masks of subdivision schemes, we obtain a sufficient condition to determine whether there exists a Gibbs phenomenon for p-ary subdivision schemes in the limit function close to the discontinuous point. This condition consists of the positivity of the partial sums of the values of the masks. By applying this condition, we can avoid the Gibbs phenomenon for p-ary subdivision schemes near discontinuity points. Finally, some examples in classical subdivision schemes are given to illustrate the results in this paper.
The family of exponential pseudo-splines is the non-stationary counterpart of the pseudo-splines and includes the exponential B-spline functions as special members. Among the family of the exponential pseudo-splines, there also exists the subclass consisting of interpolatory cardinal functions, which can be obtained as the limits of the exponentials reproducing subdivision. In this paper, we mainly focus on this subclass of exponential pseudo-splines and propose their dual refinable functions with explicit form of symbols. Based on this result, we obtain the corresponding biorthogonal wavelets using the non-stationary Multiresolution Analysis (MRA). We verify the stability of the refinable and wavelet functions and show that both of them have exponential vanishing moments, a generalization of the usual vanishing moments. Thus, these refinable and wavelet functions can form a non-stationary generalization of the Coifman biorthogonal wavelet systems constructed using the masks of the D-D interpolatory subdivision.
