The factor has a simple zero at , and makes the zero of there exactly order . The quadrature mirror filter construction gives a high-pass symbol , up to a constant phase, and
The normalized scaling function has , so has a zero of exactly order at zero. Compact support of the Daubechies wavelet permits differentiation under its Fourier transform:
Hence
There are exactly vanishing moments, rather than just at least .
