Ultrametric, binary tree, Haar basisAbstract
We introduce and study a relation of refinement between compact ultrametrics. Efficient methods to determine ultrametrics by functions on binary trees and by symmetric bilinear forms that attain a diagonal form in a basis of Haar-like wavelets, are also proposed.
