Complex equiangular tight frames and erasures

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this paper we demonstrate that there are distinct differences between real and complex equiangular tight frames (ETFs) with regards to erasures. For example, we prove that there exist arbitrarily large non-trivial complex equiangular tight frames which are robust against three erasures, and that such frames come from a unique class of complex ETFs. In addition, we extend certain results in cite{BP} to complex vector spaces as well as show that other results regarding real ETFs are not valid for complex ETFs.


The authors extent certain results on real equiangular tight frames (ETFs) to complex ETFs. They demonstrate that there are distinct differences between real and complex ETFs. For example, the real 3-uniform frames correspond precisely to the so-called trivial real ETFs. However, there exist arbitrarily large non-trivial complex 3-uniform frames, and such frames come from a unique class of complex ETFs. Consequently, there exist complex ETFs which are optimal against three erasures.
