We study many properties of level-dependent Hermite subdivision, focusing on schemes preserving polynomial and exponential data. We specifically consider interpolatory schemes, which give rise to level-dependent multiresolution analyses through a prediction-correction approach. A result on the decay of the associated multiwavelet coefficients, corresponding to a uniformly continuous and differentiable function, is derived. It makes use of the approximation of any such function with a generalized Taylor formula expressed in terms of polynomials and exponentials.

The aim of the paper is to present Hermite-type multiwavelets satisfying the vanishing moment property with respect to elements in the space spanned by exponentials and polynomials. Such functions satisfy a two-scale relation which is level-dependent as well as the corresponding multiresolution analysis. An important feature of the associated filters is the possibility of factorizing their symbols in terms of the so-called cancellation operator. A family of biorthogonal multiwavelet system possessing the above property and obtained from a Hermite subdivision scheme reproducing polynomial and exponential data is finally introduced.

Measurements achieved with ptychographic imaging are a special case of diffraction measurements. They are generated by illuminating small parts of a sample with, e.g., a focused X-ray beam. By shifting the sample, a set of far-field diffraction patterns of the whole sample are then obtained. From a mathematical point of view those measurements are the squared modulus of the windowed Fourier transform of the sample. Thus, we have a phase retrieval problem for local Fourier measurements. A direct solver for this problem was introduced by Iwen, Viswanathan and Wang in 2016 and improved by Iwen, Preskitt, Saab and Viswanathan in 2018. Motivated by the applied perspective of ptychographic imaging, we present a generalization of this method and compare the different versions in numerical experiments. The new method proposed herein turns out to be more stable, particularly in the case of missing data.

Mathematical methods of image inpainting involve the discretization of given continuous models. We present a method that avoids the standard pointwise discretization by modeling known variational approaches, in particular total variation (TV), using a finite dimensional spline space. Besides the analysis of the resulting model, we present a numerical implementation based on the alternating method of multipliers. We compare the results numerically with classical TV inpainting and give examples of applications.
