%0 Journal Article %T Almost Lipschitz-continuous wavelets in metric spaces via a new randomization of dyadic cubes %A Tuomas Hyt£¿nen %A Olli Tapiola %J Mathematics %D 2013 %I arXiv %X In any quasi-metric space of homogeneous type, Auscher and Hyt\"onen recently gave a construction of orthonormal wavelets with H\"older-continuity exponent $\eta>0$. However, even in a metric space, their exponent is in general quite small. In this paper, we show that the H\"older-exponent can be taken arbitrarily close to 1 in a metric space. We do so by revisiting and improving the underlying construction of random dyadic cubes, which also has other applications. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1310.2047v1
