Abstract
For time-frequency localization operators, related to the short-time Fourier transform, with symbol , we work out the exact large eigenvalue behavior for rotationally invariant and conjecture that the same relation holds for all scaled symbols as long as the window is the standard Gaussian. Specifically, we conjecture that the -th eigenvalue of the localization operator with symbol converges to as . To support the conjecture, we compute the eigenvalues of discrete frame multipliers with various symbols using LTFAT and find that they agree with the behavior of the conjecture to a large degree.
