Frames, semi-frames, and Hilbert scales
Given a total sequence in a Hilbert space, we speak of an upper (resp. lower)
semi-frame if only the upper (resp. lower) frame bound is valid. Equivalently,
for an upper semi-frame, the frame operator is bounded, but has an unbounded
inverse, whereas a lower semi-frame has an unbounded frame operator, with
bounded inverse. For upper semi-frames, in the discrete and the continuous
case, we build two natural Hilbert scales which may yield a novel
characterization of certain function spaces of interest in signal processing.
We present some examples and, in addition, some results concerning the duality
between lower and upper semi-frames, as well as some generalizations, including
fusion semi-frames and Banach semi-frames.Comment: 27 pages; Numerical Functional Analysis and Optimization, 33 (2012)

Lower Semi-frames, Frames, and Metric Operators
This paper deals with the possibility of transforming a weakly measurable function in a Hilbert space into a continuous frame by a metric operator, i.e., a strictly positive self-adjoint operator. A necessary condition is that the domain of the analysis operator associated with the function be dense. The study is done also with the help of the generalized frame operator associated with a weakly measurable function, which has better properties than the usual frame operator. A special attention is given to lower semi-frames: indeed, if the domain of the analysis operator is dense, then a lower semi-frame can be transformed into a Parseval frame with a (special) metric operator
Reproducing pairs of measurable functions and partial inner product spaces
We continue the analysis of reproducing pairs of weakly measurable functions,
which generalize continuous frames. More precisely, we examine the case where
the defining measurable functions take their values in a partial inner product
space (PIP spaces). Several examples, both discrete and continuous, are
presented.Comment: 20 pages, 1 figure. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with

Co-compact Gabor systems on locally compact abelian groups
In this work we extend classical structure and duality results in Gabor
analysis on the euclidean space to the setting of second countable locally
compact abelian (LCA) groups. We formulate the concept of rationally
oversampling of Gabor systems in an LCA group and prove corresponding
characterization results via the Zak transform. From these results we derive
non-existence results for critically sampled continuous Gabor frames. We obtain
general characterizations in time and in frequency domain of when two Gabor
generators yield dual frames. Moreover, we prove the Walnut and Janssen
representation of the Gabor frame operator and consider the Wexler-Raz
biorthogonality relations for dual generators. Finally, we prove the duality
principle for Gabor frames. Unlike most duality results on Gabor systems, we do
not rely on the fact that the translation and modulation groups are discrete
and co-compact subgroups. Our results only rely on the assumption that either
one of the translation and modulation group (in some cases both) are co-compact
subgroups of the time and frequency domain. This presentation offers a unified
approach to the study of continuous and the discrete Gabor frames.Comment: Paper (v2) shortened. To appear in J. Fourier Anal. App
