Abstract

For a partition of [0,1][0,1] into intervals I1,,InI_1,\ldots,I_n we prove the existence of a partition of Z\mathbb{Z} into Λ1,,Λn\Lambda_1,\ldots, \Lambda_n such that the complex exponential functions with frequencies in Λk \Lambda_k form a Riesz basis for L2(Ik)L^2(I_k), and furthermore, that for any J{1,2,,n}J\subseteq\{1,\,2,\,\dots,\,n\}, the exponential functions with frequencies in jJΛj \bigcup_{j\in J}\Lambda_j form a Riesz basis for L2(I)L^2(I) for any interval II with length I=jJIj|I|=\sum_{j\in J}|I_j|. The construction extends to infinite partitions of [0,1][0,1], but with size limitations on the subsets JZJ\subseteq \mathbb{Z}; it combines the ergodic properties of subsequences of Z\mathbb{Z} known as Beatty-Fraenkel sequences with a theorem of Avdonin on exponential Riesz bases.
