Classification of General Sequences by Frame-Related Operators

This note is a survey and collection of results, as well as presenting some original research. For Bessel sequences and frames, the analysis, synthesis and frame operators as well as the Gram matrix are well-known, bounded operators. We investigate these operators for arbitrary sequences, which in general lead to possibly unbounded operators. We characterize various classes of sequences in terms of these operators and vice-versa. Finally, we classify these sequences by operators applied on orthonormal bases

On Various R-duals and the Duality Principle

The duality principle states that a Gabor system is a frame if and only if the corresponding adjoint Gabor system is a Riesz sequence. In general Hilbert spaces and without the assumption of any particular structure, Casazza, Kutyniok and Lammers have introduced the so-called R-duals that also lead to a characterization of frames in terms of associated Riesz sequences; however, it is still an open question whether this abstract theory is a generalization of the duality principle. In this paper we prove that a modified version of the R-duals leads to a generalization of the duality principle that keeps all the attractive properties of the R-duals. In order to provide extra insight into the relations between a given sequence and its R-duals, we characterize all the types of R-duals that are available in the literature for the special case where the underlying sequence is a Riesz basis

Operator representations of sequences and dynamical sampling

This paper is a contribution to the theory of dynamical sampling. Our purpose is twofold. We first consider representations of sequences in a Hilbert space in terms of iterated actions of a bounded linear operator. This generalizes recent results about operator representations of frames, and is motivated by the fact that only very special frames have such a representation. As our second contribution we give a new proof of a construction of a special class of frames that are proved by Aldroubi et al. to be representable via a bounded operator. Our proof is based on a single result by Shapiro \& Shields and standard frame theory, and our hope is that it eventually can help to provide more general classes of frames with such a representation.Comment: Accepted for publication in Sampl.

Fr\'echet frames, general definition and expansions

We define an {\it $(X_1,\Theta, X_2)$-frame} with Banach spaces $X_2\subseteq X_1$, $|\cdot|_1 \leq |\cdot|_2$, and a $BK$-space (\Theta, \snorm[\cdot]). Then by the use of decreasing sequences of Banach spaces ${X_s}_{s=0}^\infty$ and of sequence spaces ${\Theta_s}_{s=0}^\infty$, we define a general Fr\' echet frame on the Fr\' echet space $X_F=\bigcap_{s=0}^\infty X_s$. We give frame expansions of elements of $X_F$ and its dual $X_F^*$, as well of some of the generating spaces of $X_F$ with convergence in appropriate norms. Moreover, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a general pre-Fr\' echet frame to be a general Fr\' echet frame, as well as for the complementedness of the range of the analysis operator $U:X_F\to\Theta_F$.Comment: A new section is added and a minor revision is don
