Wilson Bases and Ultramodulation Spaces (Q4545937)

A modulation space \(M^{w}_{p,q}\) is defined to be the space \[ M^w_{p,q} = \left\{ f \in {\mathcal S}': \int_{{\mathbb R}^d} \left( \int_{{\mathbb R}^d} |\langle \overline{T_x M_y g}, f \rangle|^p w(x,y)^p dx \right)^{q/p} dy < \infty \right\}, \] where \(T_x\) is a translation by \(x\), \(M_y\) is a modulation by \(y\), \(g \in {\mathcal S}({\mathbb R}^d)\), \(1 \leq p,q < \infty\), and \(w\) is a strictly positive and continuous function on \({\mathbb R}^{2d}\). In this paper the authors consider special type of weights \(w\) which satisfy the condition \(w(x+y, \xi+\eta) \leq Ce^{s(|x|^2 + |\xi|^2)^{\gamma/2}}\) and an additional technical symmetry condition. Spaces \(M^w_{p,q}\) with such defined weights \(w\) are called \textit{ultramodulation spaces}. If \(w\) is of the form \(e^{s|\xi|^\gamma}\), for \(\gamma \in (0,1)\) and \(s \geq 0\), then \(M^w_{p,q}\) is a coorbit space associated with a space of Gelfand-Shilov type. The authors prove that for such spaces the Wilson bases with exponential decay, of Daubechies, Jaffard, and Journé, are their unconditional bases. Further, it is shown that the spaces of Gelfand-Shilov type (called the spaces of \textit{tempered ultradistributions}) and their duals can be characterized through unconditional expansions of their elements in Wilson bases.
