On some identities and inequalities for frames in Hilbert spaces (Q2497375)

The author reviews and extends results on some recently obtained equalities and inequalities for frames, in particular proves that if \((f_i)_{i\in I}\) is a frame with canonical dual frame \((\tilde f_i)_{i\in I}\), then \[ \sum_{i\in J}| \langle f,f_i\rangle| ^2 + \sum_{i\in I} | \langle S_{J^c}f,f_i\rangle| ^2 = \sum_{i\in J^c}| \langle f,f_i\rangle| ^2 + \sum_{i\in I} | \langle S_{J}f,f_i\rangle| ^2 \geq {3\over 4}\sum_{i\in I}| \langle f,f_i\rangle| ^2, \] where \(J\subset I\) and \(S_J=\sum_{i\in J}\langle f,f_i\rangle f_i\). In addition the author studies corresponding results for alternate dual frames, that is, cases where \(\tilde f_i\) is replaced by \(g_i\) so that \(f=\sum_{i\in I} \langle f,g_i\rangle f_i\).
