Super Gabor frames on discrete periodic sets

Due to its potential applications in multiplexing techniques such as time division multiple access and frequency division multiple access, superframe has interested some mathematicians and engineering specialists. In this paper, we investigate super Gabor systems on discrete periodic sets in terms of a suitable Zak transform matrix, which can model signals to appear periodically but intermittently. Complete super Gabor systems, super Gabor frames and Gabor duals for super Gabor frames on discrete periodic sets are characterized; An explicit expression of Gabor duals is established, and the uniqueness of Gabor duals is characterized. On the other hand, discrete periodic sets admitting complete super Gabor systems, super Gabor frames, super Gabor Riesz bases are also characterized. Some examples are also provided to illustrate the general theory.     

On Various R-duals and the Duality Principle

The duality principle states that a Gabor system is a frame if and only if the corresponding adjoint Gabor system is a Riesz sequence. In general Hilbert spaces and without the assumption of any particular structure, Casazza, Kutyniok and Lammers have introduced the so-called R-duals that also lead to a characterization of frames in terms of associated Riesz sequences; however, it is still an open question whether this abstract theory is a generalization of the duality principle. In this paper we prove that a modified version of the R-duals leads to a generalization of the duality principle that keeps all the attractive properties of the R-duals. In order to provide extra insight into the relations between a given sequence and its R-duals, we characterize all the types of R-duals that are available in the literature for the special case where the underlying sequence is a Riesz basis.     

Gabor systems on discrete periodic sets

Due to its good potential for digital signal processing, discrete Gabor analysis has interested some mathematicians. This paper addresses Gabor systems on discrete periodic sets, which can model signals to appear periodically but intermittently. Complete Gabor systems and Gabor frames on discrete periodic sets are characterized; a sufficient and necessary condition on what periodic sets admit complete Gabor systems is obtained; this condition is also proved to be sufficient and necessary for the existence of sets E such that the Gabor systems generated by χ _E are tight frames on these periodic sets; our proof is constructive, and all tight frames of the above form with a special frame bound can be obtained by our method; periodic sets admitting Gabor Riesz bases are characterized; some examples are also provided to illustrate the general theory.

Rational time-frequency multi-window subspace Gabor frames and their Gabor duals

This paper addresses the theory of multi-window subspace Gabor frame with rational time-frequency parameter products.With the help of a suitable Zak transform matrix,we characterize multi-window subspace Gabor frames,Riesz bases,orthonormal bases and the uniqueness of Gabor duals of type I and type II.Using these characterizations we obtain a class of multi-window subspace Gabor frames,Riesz bases,orthonormal bases,and at the same time we derive an explicit expression of their Gabor duals of type I and type II.As an application of the above results,we obtain characterizations of multi-window Gabor frames,Riesz bases and orthonormal bases for L2(R),and derive a parametric expression of Gabor duals for multi-window Gabor frames in L2(R).     

Density of Gabor Systems Via the Short Time Fourier Transform

We apply a new approach to the study of the density of Gabor systems, and obtain a simple and straightforward proof to Ramanathan and Steger’s well-known result regarding the density of Gabor frames and Gabor Riesz sequences. Moreover, this point of view allows us to extend this result in several directions. The approach we use was first observed by Olevskii and the third author in their study of exponential systems, here we develop and simplify it further.     

Beurling Dimension of Gabor Pseudoframes for Affine Subspaces

Pseudoframes for subspaces have been recently introduced by Li and Ogawa as a tool to analyze lower dimensional data with arbitrary flexibility of both the analyzing and the dual sequence. In this paper we study Gabor pseudoframes for affine subspaces by focusing on geometrical properties of their associated sets of parameters. We first introduce a new notion of Beurling dimension for discrete subsets of ℝ ^d by employing a certain generalized Beurling density. We present several properties of Beurling dimension including a comparison with other notions of dimension showing, for instance, that our notion includes the mass dimension as a special case. Then we prove that Gabor pseudoframes for affine subspaces satisfy a certain Homogeneous Approximation Property, which implies invariance under time–frequency shifts of an approximation by elements from the pseudoframe. The main result of this paper is a classification of Gabor pseudoframes for affine subspaces by means of the Beurling dimension of their sets of parameters. This provides us, in particular, with a Nyquist dimension which separates sets of parameters of pseudoframes from those of non-pseudoframes and which links a fixed value to sets of parameters of pseudo-Riesz sequences. These results are even new for the special case of Gabor frames for an affine subspace.      

Representation of Operators in the Time-Frequency Domain and Generalized Gabor Multipliers

Starting from a general operator representation in the time-frequency domain, this paper addresses the problem of approximating linear operators by operators that are diagonal or band-diagonal with respect to Gabor frames. A characterization of operators that can be realized as Gabor multipliers is given and necessary conditions for the existence of (Hilbert-Schmidt) optimal Gabor multiplier approximations are discussed and an efficient method for the calculation of an operator’s best approximation by a Gabor multiplier is derived. The spreading function of Gabor multipliers yields new error estimates for these approximations. Generalizations (multiple Gabor multipliers) are introduced for better approximation of overspread operators. The Riesz property of the projection operators involved in generalized Gabor multipliers is characterized, and a method for obtaining an operator’s best approximation by a multiple Gabor multiplier is suggested. Finally, it is shown that in certain situations, generalized Gabor multipliers reduce to a finite sum of regular Gabor multipliers with adapted windows.     

Time-domain characterization of multiwindow Gabor systems on discrete periodic sets

This paper addresses multiwindow Gabor systems on discrete periodic sets, which can model signals to appear periodically but intermittently. We give some necessary and/or sufficient conditions for multiwindow Gabor systems to foe frames on discrete periodic sets, and characterize two multiwindow Gabor Bessel sequences to foe dual frames on discrete periodic sets. For a given multiwindow Gabor frame, we derive all its Gabor duals, among which we obtain an explicit expression of the canonical Gabor dual. In addition, we generalize multiwindow Gabor systems to the case of a different sampling rate for each window, and investigate multiwindow Gabor frames and dual frames in this case. We also show the properties of the multiwindow Gabor systems are essentially not changed by replacing the exponential kernel with other kernels.     

On the Riesz fusion bases in Hilbert spaces

In this paper we investigate the connection between fusion frames and obtain a relation between indexes of the synthesis operators of a Besselian fusion frame and associated frame to it. Next we introduce a new notion of a Riesz fusion bases in a Hilbert space. We show that any Riesz fusion basis is equivalent with a orthonormal fusion basis. We also obtain generalizations of Theorem 4.6 of [1]. Our results generalize results obtained for Riesz bases in Hilbert spaces. Finally we obtain some results about stability of fusion frame sequences under small perturbations.     

EQUIMEASURABLE SETS IN RIESZ SPACES

Abstract

We discuss the notion of equimeasurability in the general setting of Riesz spaces and obtain a characterization for (Carleman) abstract kernel operators in terms of equimea=surable sets.     

Time-frequency partitions and characterizations of modulation spaces with localization operators

We study families of time-frequency localization operators and derive a new characterization of modulation spaces. This characterization relates the size of the localization operators to the global time-frequency distribution. As a by-product, we obtain a new proof for the existence of multi-window Gabor frames and extend the structure theory of Gabor frames.     

Basic definition and properties of Bessel multipliers

This paper introduces the concept of Bessel multipliers. These operators are defined by a fixed multiplication pattern, which is inserted between the analysis and synthesis operators. The proposed concept unifies the approach used for Gabor multipliers for arbitrary analysis/synthesis systems, which form Bessel sequences, like wavelet or irregular Gabor frames. The basic properties of this class of operators are investigated. In particular the implications of summability properties of the symbol for the membership of the corresponding operators in certain operator classes are specified. As a special case the multipliers for Riesz bases are examined and it is shown that multipliers in this case can be easily composed and inverted. Finally the continuous dependence of a Bessel multiplier on the parameters (i.e., the involved sequences and the symbol in use) is verified, using a special measure of similarity of sequences.     

Frame expansions for Gabor multipliers

Discrete Gabor multipliers are composed of rank one operators. We shall prove, in the case of rank one projection operators, that the generating operators for such multipliers are either Riesz bases (exact frames) or not frames for their closed linear spans. The same dichotomy conclusion is valid for general rank one operators under mild and natural conditions. This is relevant since discrete Gabor multipliers have an emerging role in communications, radar, and waveform design, where redundant frame decompositions are increasingly applicable.     

Density results for subspace multiwindow Gabor systems in the rational case

Let S be a periodic set in R and L2(S) be a subspace of L2 (R). This paper investigates the density problem for multiwindow Gabor systems in L2(S) for the case that the product of time-frequency shift parameters is a rational number. We derive the density conditions for a multiwindow Gabor system to be complete (a frame) in L2(S). Under such conditions, we construct a multiwindow tight Gabor frame for L2(S) with window functions being characteristic functions. We also provide a characterization of a multiwindow Gabor frame to be a Riesz basis for L2(S), and obtain the density condition for a multiwindow Gabor Riesz basis for L2(S).

Operator Frames for Banach Spaces

In this paper, operator Bessel sequences, operator frames, Banach operator frames, Operator Riesz bases for Banach spaces and dual frames of an operator frame are introduced and discussed. The necessary and sufficient condition for a Banach space to have an operator frame, a Banach operator frame or an operator Riesz basis are given. In addition, operator frames and operator Riesz bases are characterized by the analysis operator of operator Bessel sequences.     

Nonlinear approximation with nonstationary Gabor frames

We consider sparseness properties of adaptive time-frequency representations obtained using nonstationary Gabor frames (NSGFs). NSGFs generalize classical Gabor frames by allowing for adaptivity in either time or frequency. It is known that the concept of painless nonorthogonal expansions generalizes to the nonstationary case, providing perfect reconstruction and an FFT based implementation for compactly supported window functions sampled at a certain density. It is also known that for some signal classes, NSGFs with flexible time resolution tend to provide sparser expansions than can be obtained with classical Gabor frames. In this article we show, for the continuous case, that sparseness of a nonstationary Gabor expansion is equivalent to smoothness in an associated decomposition space. In this way we characterize signals with sparse expansions relative to NSGFs with flexible time resolution. Based on this characterization we prove an upper bound on the approximation error occurring when thresholding the coefficients of the corresponding frame expansions. We complement the theoretical results with numerical experiments, estimating the rate of approximation obtained from thresholding the coefficients of both stationary and nonstationary Gabor expansions.     

Some Supports of Fourier Transforms of Singular Measures are not Rajchman

The notion of Riesz sets tells us that a support of Fourier transform of a measure with non-trivial singular part has to be large. The notion of Rajchman sets tells us that if the Fourier transform tends to zero at infinity outside a small set, then it tends to zero even on the small set. Here we present a new angle of an old question: Whether every Rajchman set should be Riesz.     

Fusion-Riesz frame in Hilbert space

Fusion-Riesz frame (Riesz frame of subspace) whose all subsets are fusion frame sequences with the same bounds is a special fusion frame. It is also considered a generalization of Riesz frame since it shares some important properties of Riesz frame. In this paper, we show a part of these properties of fusion-Riesz frame and the new results about the stabilities of fusion-Riesz frames under operator perturbation (simple named operator perturbation of fusion-Riesz frames). Moreover, we also compare the operator perturbation of fusion-Riesz frame with that of fusion frame, fusion-Riesz basis (also called Riesz decomposition or Riesz fusion basis) and exact fusion frame.
