Smooth dyadic decompositions of unity are classical and very applicable tools in analysis. This is usually an identity of the form
$$
sum_j in mathbbZ varphi(t/2^j) = 1
$$
for all $t in mathbbR$ (except possibly when $t=0$) and some $varphi$ smooth compactly supported on (say) $[2^-1, 2]$ and with bounded derivatives. Thus $varphi(t/2^j)$ is supported on $[2^j-1, 2^j+1]$.
I wonder how one could go about generalizing this to the case when $2$ is replaced with some large $q$. Thus something of the form
$$
sum_j in mathbbZvarphi(t/q^j) = 1.
$$
However I want that each $varphi(t/q^j)$ has derivatives decaying proportionately with the length of its support. If one were to follow the dyadic example above, one should expect $varphi(t/q^j)$ to be supported on an interval of length $asymp q^j+1$ but its first derivative is $ll 1/q^j$ (if I'm not mistaken). Can we construct $varphi$ in such a way that we also get $|(varphi(cdot/q^j))^(k)|_infty ll_k |textsupp(varphi(cdot/q^j))|^-k$ for each $k geq 0$. Here $|textsupp(varphi(cdot/q^j))| $ denotes the length of the support of $t mapsto varphi(t/q^j)$. Thanks.
