Abstract

In this paper we formulate a weighted version of minimum problem (1.4) on the sphere and we show that, for KLK\le L, if {ϕk}k=1K\set{\phi_k}^K_{k=1} consists of the spherical functions with degree less than NN we can localize the points (ξ1,...,ξL)(\xi_1,...,\xi_L) on the sphere so that the solution of this problem is the simplest possible. This localization is connected to the discrete orthogonality of the spherical functions which was proved in [3]. Using these points we construct a frame system and a wavelet system on the sphere and we study the properties of these systems. For K>LK>L a similar construction was made in paper [4], but in that case the solution of the minimum problem (1.4) is not as efficient as it is in our case. The analogue of Fej\'er and de la Val\'ee-Poussin summation methods introduced in [3] can be expressed by the frame system introduced in this paper.
