We provide conditions under which a generalized shift-invariant (GSI) system can be approximated by a GSI system for which the generators have compact support in the Fourier domain. The approximation quality will be measured in terms of the Bessel bound (upper frame bound) for the difference between the two GSI systems. In particular, this leads to easily verifiable conditions for a perturbation of a GSI system to preserve the frame property.

Although Naimark dilation theorem was originally stated in 1940, it still finds many important applications in various areas. The objective of this paper is to introduce a method for explicitly constructing the vectors of complementary frames in the Naimark dilation theorem, specifically in cases where the initial Parseval frame contains a Riesz basis as a subset. These findings serve as a foundation for the construction of dual frames.

We consider a general twisted shift-invariant system, $V^{t}(\mathcal {A})$, consisting of twisted translates of countably many generators and study the problem of obtaining a characterization for the system $V^{t}(\mathcal {A})$ to form a frame sequence or a Riesz sequence. We illustrate our theory with some examples. In addition to these results, we study a dual twisted shift-invariant system and also obtain an orthonormal sequence of twisted translates from a given Riesz sequence of twisted translates.

In this paper, we construct explicit exponential bases of unions of segments of total measure one. Our construction applies to finite or infinite unions of segments, with some conditions on the gaps between them. We also construct exponential bases on finite or infinite unions of cubes in $\mathbb {R}^d$ and prove a stability result for unions of segments that generalize Kadec’s $\frac 14$-theorem.

We provide a general program for finding nice arrangements of points in real or complex projective space from transitive actions of finite groups. In many cases, these arrangements are optimal in the sense of maximizing the minimum distance. We introduce our program in terms of general Schurian association schemes before focusing on the special case of Gelfand pairs. Notably, our program unifies a variety of existing packings with heretofore disparate constructions. In addition, we leverage our program to construct the first known infinite family of equiangular lines with Heisenberg symmetry.

We give a characterization of all Parseval wavelet frames arising from a given frame multiresolution analysis. As a consequence, we obtain a description of all Parseval wavelet frames associated with a frame multiresolution analysis. These results are based on a version of Oblique Extension Principle with the assumption that the origin is a point of approximate continuity of the Fourier transform of the involved refinable functions. Our results are written for reducing subspaces.

We show the existence of a measurable selector in Carpenter’s Theorem due to Kadison. This solves a problem posed by Jasper and the first author in an earlier work. As an application we obtain a characterization of all possible spectral functions of shift-invariant subspaces of $L^{2}(\mathbb{R}^{d})$ and Carpenter’s Theorem for type $\text{I}_{\infty }$ von Neumann algebras.

We investigate the Gibbs–Wilbraham phenomenon for generalized sampling series, and related interpolation series arising from cardinal functions. We prove the existence of the overshoot characteristic of the phenomenon for certain cardinal functions, and characterize the existence of an overshoot for sampling series.

We consider three special and significant cases of the following problem. Let $D\subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$ be a (possibly unbounded) set of finite Lebesgue measure. Let $E(\mathbb{Z}^{d})=\{e^{2\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}ix\cdot n}\}\text{}_{n\in \mathbb{Z}^{d}}$ be the standard exponential basis on the unit cube of $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. Find conditions on $D$ for which $E(\mathbb{Z}^{d})$ is a frame, a Riesz sequence, or a Riesz basis for $L^{2}(D)$.

In this article, we give necessary and sufficient conditions on a function to be a low-pass filter on a local field $K$ of positive characteristic associated with the scaling function for multiresolution analysis of ${{L}^{2}}\left( K \right)$. We use probability and martingale methods to provide such a characterization.

Frame theory, which contains wavelet analysis and Gabor analysis, has become a powerful tool for many applications of mathematics, engineering and quantum mechanics. The study of extension principles of Bessel sequences to frames is important in frame theory. This paper studies transformations on Bessel sequences to generate frames and Riesz bases in terms of operators and scalability. Some characterizations of operators that mapping Bessel sequences to frames and Riesz bases are given. We introduce the definitions of F-scalable and P-scalable Bessel sequences. F-scalability and P-scalability of Bessel sequences are discussed in this paper, then characterizations of scalings of F-scalable or P-scalable Bessel sequences are established. Finally, a perturbation result on F-scalable Bessel sequences is derived.

We give a constructive proof of the carpenter's theorem due to Kadison. Unlike the original proof, our approach also yields the real case of this theorem.

The unitary extension principle $\left( \text{UEP} \right)$ by A. Ron and Z. Shen yields a sufficient condition for the construction of Parseval wavelet frames with multiple generators. In this paper we characterize the $\text{UEP}$-type wavelet systems that can be extended to a Parseval wavelet frame by adding just one $\text{UEP}$-type wavelet system. We derive a condition that is necessary for the extension of a UEP-type wavelet system to any Parseval wavelet frame with any number of generators and prove that this condition is also sufficient to ensure that an extension with just two generators is possible.

In this work we introduce a class of discrete groups containing subgroups of abstract translations and dilations, respectively. A variety of wavelet systems can appear as $\pi \left( \Gamma \right)\psi $, where $\pi $ is a unitary representation of a wavelet group and $\Gamma $ is the abstract pseudo-lattice $\Gamma $. We prove a sufficent condition in order that a Parseval frame $\pi \left( \Gamma \right)\psi $ can be dilated to an orthonormal basis of the form $\tau \left( \Gamma \right)\Psi $, where $\tau $ is a super-representation of $\pi $. For a subclass of groups that includes the case where the translation subgroup is Heisenberg, we show that this condition always holds, and we cite familiar examples as applications.

Two algorithms for constructing a class of compactly supported conjugate symmetric complex tight wavelet frames ψ = {ψ1, ψ2} are derived. Firstly, a necessary and sufficient condition for constructing the conjugate symmetric complex tight wavelet frames is established. Secondly, based on a given conjugate symmetric low pass filter, a description of a family of complex wavelet frame solutions is provided when the low pass filter is of even length. When one wavelet is conjugate symmetric and the other is conjugate antisymmetric, the two wavelet filters can be obtained by matching the roots of associated polynomials. Finally, two examples are given to illustrate how to use our method to construct conjugate symmetric complex tight wavelet frames which have some vanishing moments.

Perturbation theory is a fundamental tool in Banach space theory. However, the applications of the classical results are limited by the fact that they force the perturbed sequence to be equivalent to the given sequence. We will develop amore general perturbation theory that does not force equivalence of the sequences.

We define the higher order Riesz transforms and the Littlewood-Paley $g$-function associated to the differential operator ${{L}_{\lambda }}f(\theta )\,=\,-{f}''(\theta )-2\lambda \cot \theta {f}'(\theta )+{{\lambda }^{2}}f(\theta )$. We prove that these operators are Calderón–Zygmund operators in the homogeneous type space $((0,\,\pi ),\,{{(\sin t)}^{2\lambda }}dt)$. Consequently, ${{L}^{p}}$ weighted, ${{H}^{1}}\,-\,{{L}^{1}}$ and ${{L}^{\infty }}\,-\,BMO$ inequalities are obtained.

We show that if is a frame and {ψＱ}Ｑ∈Q ∈ ∩ Mα(ℝn) is its dual frame (for the definition of Mα(ℝn), see Definition 2.1), where Q is the collection of dyadic cubes, then for any f ∈ S′(ℝn), there exists a sequence of polynomials, PL,L′,L″, such that

in the topology of S′(ℝn), where δ(i) = max(2i, 1). We prove this result by explicitly constructing the polynomials PL,L′,L″. Furthermore, using the above result, we assert that the linear span of the one-dimensional wavelet system is dense in a function space if and only if the dual space of this function space has an trivial intersection with the set of polynomials. This is proved by using the annihilator of the one-dimensional wavelet system.

Given a finite group $G$, we examine the classification of all frame representations of $G$ and the classification of all $G$-frames, i.e., frames induced by group representations of $G$. We show that the exact number of equivalence classes of $G$-frames and the exact number of frame representations can be explicitly calculated. We also discuss how to calculate the largest number $L$ such that there exists an $L$-tuple of strongly disjoint $G$-frames.

We consider a unitary representation of a discrete countable abelian group on a separable Hilbert space which is associated to a cyclic generalized frame multiresolution analysis. We extend Robertson’s theorem to apply to frames generated by the action of the group. Within this setup we use Stone’s theorem and the theory of projection valued measures to analyze wandering frame collections. This yields a functional analytic method of constructing a wavelet from a generalized frame multiresolution analysis in terms of the frame scaling vectors. We then explicitly apply our results to the action of the integers given by translations on ${{L}^{2}}(\mathbb{R})$.
