The local integrability condition for wavelet frames

In this article we study finitely generated wavelet systems with arbitrary dilation sets. In 2002 Hernández et al. gave a characterization of when such a system forms a Parseval frame, assuming that a certain hypothesis known as the local integrability condition (LIC) holds. We show that, under some mild regularity assumption on the wavelets, the LIC is solely a density condition on the dilation sets. Using this new interpretation of the LIC, we further discuss when the characterization result holds.     

Multilinear Calderón-Zygmund Operators and Their Commutators with BMO Functions in Herz-Morrey Spaces with Variable Smoothness and Integrability

In this paper, we obtain that multilinear Calderón-Zygmund operators and their commutators with BMO functions are bounded on products of Herz-Morrey spaces with variable smoothness and integrability. The vector-valued setting of multilinear Calderón-Zygmund operators is also considered.     

Perturbation of wavelet and Gabor frames

In this work two aspects of theory of frames are presented: a side necessary condition on irregular wavelet frames is obtained, another perturbation of wavelet and Gabor frames is considered. Specifically,we present the results obtained on frame stability when one disturbs the mother of wavelet frame, or the parameter of dilatation, and in Gabor frames when the generating function or the parameter of translation are perturbed. In all cases we work without demanding compactness of the support, neither on the generating function, nor on its Fourier transform.     

Bessel sequences,wavelet frames,duals and extensions

From the perspectives of duality and extensions, Gabor frames and wavelet frames have contrasting behaviour. Our chief concern here is about duality. Canonical duals of wavelet frames may not be wavelet frames, whereas canonical duals of Gabor frames are Gabor frames. Keeping these in view, we give several constructions of wavelet frames with wavelet canonical duals. For this, a simple characterisation of Bessel sequences and a general commutativity result are given, the former also leading naturally to some extension results.     

Smooth Functions Associated with Wavelet Sets on ℝ d , d≥1, and Frame Bound Gaps

The theme is to smooth characteristic functions of Parseval frame wavelet sets by convolution in order to obtain implementable, computationally viable, smooth wavelet frames. We introduce the following: a new method to improve frame bound estimation; a shrinking technique to construct frames; and a nascent theory concerning frame bound gaps. The phenomenon of a frame bound gap occurs when certain sequences of functions, converging in L ² to a Parseval frame wavelet, generate systems with frame bounds that are uniformly bounded away from 1. We prove that smoothing a Parseval frame wavelet set wavelet on the frequency domain by convolution with elements of an approximate identity produces a frame bound gap. Furthermore, the frame bound gap for such frame wavelets in L ²(? ^d ) increases and converges as d increases.     

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.

Frames and Coorbit Theory on Homogeneous Spaces with a Special Guidance on the Sphere

The topic of this article is a generalization of the theory of coorbit spaces and related frame constructions to Banach spaces of functions or distributions over domains and manifolds. As a special case one obtains modulation spaces and Gabor frames on spheres. Group theoretical considerations allow first to introduce generalized wavelet transforms. These are then used to define coorbit spaces on homogeneous spaces, which consist of functions having their generalized wavelet transform in some weighted L_p space. We also describe natural ways of discretizing those wavelet transforms, or equivalently to obtain atomic decompositions and Banach frames for the corresponding coorbit spaces. Based on these facts we treat aspects of nonlinear approximation and show how the new theory can be applied to the Gabor transform on spheres. For the S¹ we exhibit concrete examples of admissible Gabor atoms which are very closely related to uncertainty minimizing states.     

New Wavelet Bases and Isometric Between Symbolic Operators Spaces $$ {\text{OP}}S^{m}_{{1,\delta }} $$ and Kernel Distributions Spaces

In the fifties, Calderón established a formal relation between symbol and kernel distribution, but it is difficult to establish an intrinsic relation. The Calderón-Zygmund (C-Z) school studied the C-Z operators, and Hörmander, Kohn and Nirenberg, et al. studied the symbolic operators. Here we apply a refinement of the Littlewood-Paley (L-P) decomposition, analyse under new wavelet bases, to characterize both symbolic operators spaces \({\text{OP}}S^{m}_{{1,\delta }} \) and kernel distributions spaces with other spaces composed of some almost diagonal matrices, then get an isometric between \({\text{OP}}S^{m}_{{1,\delta }} \) and kernel distribution spaces     

Affine Density,Frame Bounds,and the Admissibility Condition for Wavelet Frames

For a large class of irregular wavelet frames we derive a fundamental relationship between the affine density of the set of indices, the frame bounds, and the admissibility constant of the wavelet. Several implications of this theorem are studied. For instance, this result reveals one reason why wavelet systems do not display a Nyquist phenomenon analogous to Gabor systems, a question asked in Daubechies' Ten Lectures book. It also implies that the affine density of the set of indices associated with a tight wavelet frame has to be uniform. Finally, we show that affine density conditions can even be used to characterize the existence of wavelet frames, thus serving, in particular, as sufficient conditions.     

Hodge polynomials and birational types of moduli spaces of coherent systems on elliptic curves

In this paper we consider moduli spaces of coherent systems on an elliptic curve. We compute their Hodge polynomials and determine their birational types in some cases. Moreover we prove that certain moduli spaces of coherent systems are isomorphic. This last result uses the Fourier-Mukai transform of coherent systems introduced by Hernández Ruipérez and Tejero Prieto.     

Maximally Equiangular Frames and Gauss Sums

In a finite-dimensional complex Euclidean space, a maximally equiangular frame is a tight frame which has a number of elements equal to the square of the dimension of the space, and in which the inner products of distinct elements are of constant magnitude. Though the general question of their existence remains open, many examples of maximally equiangular frames have been constructed as finite Gabor systems. These constructions involve number theory, specifically Schaar’s identity, which provides a reciprocity formula for quadratic Gauss sums. To be precise, Zauner used Schaar’s identity to compute the spectrum of a chirp-Fourier operator, the eigenvectors of which he conjectured to be well-suited for the construction of maximally equiangular Gabor frames. We provide two new characterizations of such frames, both of which further confirm the relevance of the theory of Gauss sums to this area of frame theory. We also show how the unique time-frequency properties of a particular cyclic chirp function may be exploited to provide a new, short and elementary proof of Schaar’s identity.      

A unified characterization of reproducing systems generated by a finite family

This article presents a general result from the study of shift-invariant spaces that characterizes tight frame and dual frame generators for shift-invariant subspaces of L²(ℝⁿ). A number of applications of this general result are then obtained, among which are the characterization of tight frames and dual frames for Gabor and wavelet systems.     

On Dual Gabor Frame Pairs Generated by Polynomials

We provide explicit constructions of particularly convenient dual pairs of Gabor frames. We prove that arbitrary polynomials restricted to sufficiently large intervals will generate Gabor frames, at least for small modulation parameters. Unfortunately, no similar function can generate a dual Gabor frame, but we prove that almost any such frame has a dual generated by a B-spline. Finally, for frames generated by any compactly supported function φ whose integer-translates form a partition of unity, e.g., a B-spline, we construct a class of dual frame generators, formed by linear combinations of translates of φ. This allows us to chose a dual generator with special properties, for example, the one with shortest support, or a symmetric one in case the frame itself is generated by a symmetric function. One of these dual generators has the property of being constant on the support of the frame generator.     

Wavelet Frame Bijectivity on Lebesgue and Hardy Spaces

We prove a sufficient condition for frame-type wavelet series in L ^p , the Hardy space H ¹, and BMO. For example, functions in these spaces are shown to have expansions in terms of the Mexican hat wavelet, thus giving a strong answer to an old question of Meyer. Bijectivity of the wavelet frame operator acting on Hardy space is established with the help of new frequency-domain estimates on the Calderón–Zygmund constants of the frame kernel.     

Computing the girth of knots

We introduce a method to compute the girth of knots, defined by Hernndez and Lin, using the Jones and BrandtLickorishMillettHo polynomial. We determine the girth of all knots up to 10 crossings.     

Complexity analysis of an interior-point algorithm for linear optimization based on a new proximity function

In this paper, we focus on a family of modified Chebyshev methods and study the semilocal convergence for these methods. Different from the results in reference (Hernández and Salanova, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 126:131–143, 2000), the Hölder continuity of the second derivative is replaced by its generalized continuity condition, and the latter is weaker than the former. Using the recurrence relations, we establish the semilocal convergence of these methods and prove a convergence theorem to show the existence-uniqueness of the solution. The R-order of these methods is also analyzed. Especially, when the second derivative of the operator is Hölder continuous, the R-order of these methods is at least 3 + 2p, which is higher than the one of Chebyshev method considered in reference (Hernández and Salanova, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 126:131–143, 2000) under the same condition. Finally, we give some numerical results to show our approach.     

Discrete Calderón-type Reproducing Formula

In this paper we use the Calderón-Zygmund operator theory to provide a discrete Calderón-type reproducing formula. Since translation, dilation and, in particular, the Fourier transform are never used in the proofs, all results still hold on spaces of homogenous type introduced by Coifman and Weiss. As a consequence, we obtain a class of frames with the minimum regularity properties. Received: July 27, 1999, Accepted: October 15, 1999     

Generalized super Gabor duals with bounded invertible operators

In this paper, we introduce generalized super Gabor duals with bounded invertible operators by combining ideas concerning super Gabor frames with the idea of g-duals as proposed by Dehgham and Fard in 2013. Given a super Gabor frame and a bounded invertible operator A, we characterize its generalized super Gabor duals with A, and derive a parametric expression of all its generalized super Gabor duals with A. The perturbation of generalized super Gabor duals is considered as well.     

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.
