Symmetries and wavelets

Abstract

Wavelet analysis of different patterns reveals some symmetries and singularities otherwise hidden in the pattern. Its general methods are briefly reviewed. Examples from turbulence, cavitation, Cherenkov gluon emission and quark-gluon jets structure in QCD are considered.
