Abstract

In the paper, we consider bivariate isotropic dilation matrices that are similar (up to constant factors) to rotation matrices; and we show that, in this case, the two-scale relation can be considered also as the relation between not only dilated but also rotated scaling functions. We present sufficient conditions on a dilation matrix to be similar to a rotation matrix, where the similarity transformation matrix is symmetric positive definite. Also we present a simple test that the dilation matrix performs the rotation by an incommensurable to π\pi angle. We show that if a dilation matrix is similar to a rotation matrix, then an ellipse defined by the similarity transformation matrix is invariant (up to a homogeneous dilation) under the transformation by the dilation matrix.
