Approximation by Spherical Waves in Lp-Space

Abstract

We prove that functions of the form f(1x-a1), a in a closed surface, are dense in the space of all functions in Lp, for zn/(n+1). This property fails for 1zn/(n+1). By letting f be a Gsussian, we obtain a result about approximation by wavelets generated by the Gaussian.
