Orbits of bounded bijective operators and Gabor frames

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: This paper is a contribution to frame theory. Frames in a Hilbert space are generalizations of orthonormal bases. In particular, Gabor frames of L2(mathbbR), which are made of translations and modulations of one or more windows, are often used in applications. More precisely, the paper deals with a question posed in the last years by Christensen and Hasannasab about the existence of overcomplete Gabor frames, with some ordering over mathbbZ, which are orbits of bounded operators on L2(mathbbR). Two classes of overcomplete Gabor frames which cannot be ordered over mathbbZ and represented by orbits of operators in GL(L2(mathbbR)) are given. Some results about operator representation are stated in a general context for arbitrary frames, covering also certain wavelet frames.


The present paper is concerned with the answer of an open question posed by \textit{O. Christensen} and \textit{M. Hasannasab} [``Operator representations of frames, in: Proc. 2017 International Conference on Sampling Theory and Applications (SampTA). 207--211 (2017)] for \(I=\mathbb{Z}\) under the additional condition \(T\in GL(L^{2}(\mathbb{R}))\), where \(GL(L^{2}(\mathbb{R}))\) is the subset of operators \(T\in B(L^{2}(\mathbb{R}))\) (the set of bounded operators). It has been shown that if the Gabor frame \(G(g,a,b)=\{e^{2i\pi mbx}g(x-na)\}_{m,n\in\mathbb{Z}}\), with some window \(g\in L^{2}(\mathbb{R})\) and \(a,b>0\), for \(L^{2}(\mathbb{R})\) is an overcomplete Gabor frame, then there is no ordering of a frame \((f_{n})_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\) of \(G(g,a,b)\) such that \(\{T^{n}f_{0}\}_{n\in \mathbb{Z}}\) holds with \(T\in GL(L^{2}(\mathbb{R}))\) if at least one of the following condition is satisfied: 1.) The window \(g\) has support in a finite interval of length \(a\). 2.) \(ab\in\mathbb{R}\setminus Q\).
