Exercise 5.4.1

Sketch a graph of ( 1 2 ) h ( 2 x ) on [ 2 , 3 ] . Give a qualitative description of the functions

h n ( x ) = 1 2 n h ( 2 n x )

as n gets larger.

Answers

( 1 2 ) h ( 2 x ) looks like h ( x ) shrunk down by a factor of 2 - both the amplitude and the period of the sawtooth are halved. Similarly, h n ( x ) looks like h ( x ) shrunk down by a factor of 2 n .
