Abstract

We introduce a fast algorithm for generating long self-affine profiles. The algorithm, which is based on the fast wavelet transform, is faster than the conventional Fourier filtering algorithm. In addition to increased performance for large systems, the algorithm, named the wavelet filtering algorithm, a priori gives rise to profiles for which the long-range correlation extends throughout the entire system independently of the length scale.
