Tensor product \(K\)-dual frames (Q6164063)

\textit{R. J. Duffin} and \textit{A. C. Schaeffer} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 72, 341--366 (1952; Zbl 0049.32401)] introduced the concept of frame in the context of nonharmonic Fourier series. Later, \textit{I. Daubechies} et al. [J. Math. Phys. 27, 1271--1283 (1986; Zbl 0608.46014)] reintroduced and investigated frames, as a generalization of orthonormal basis, in any separable Hilbert space \(\mathcal{H}\). A sequence \(\{x_{n}\}_{n=1}^{\infty}\) in \(\mathcal{H}\) is a frame for \(\mathcal{H}\) if there exist \(A, B > 0\) such that \[ A\|x\|^{2} \leq \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}|\langle x, x_{n}\rangle|^{2} \leq B\|x\|^{2} \] for all \(x \in \mathcal{H}\). \textit{L. Găvruţa} [Appl. Comput. Harmon. Anal. 32, No. 1, 139--144 (2012; Zbl 1230.42038)] introduced \(K\)-frames for \(\mathcal{H}\) where \(K\in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})\). A sequence \(\{x_{n}\}_{n=1}^{\infty}\) in \(\mathcal{H}\) is a \(K\)-frame if there exist \(A, B > 0\) such that \[ A\|K^{\ast}x\|^{2} \leq \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}|\langle x, x_{n}\rangle|^{2} \leq B\|x\|^{2} \] for all \(x \in \mathcal{H}\). A \(K\)-frame is a frame for the range of \(K\). In this paper, results concerning the tensor product of frames are generalized to the tensor product of \(K\)-frames. Some characterizations are given. Duals of the tensor product of \(K\)-frames are also investigated.
