Using Coherent-State (CS) techniques, we prove a sampling theorem for holomorphic functions on the hyperboloid (or its stereographic projection onto the open unit disk $\mathbb D_1$), seen as a homogeneous space of the pseudo-unitary group…

We consider the problem, where a camera is tasked with determining one of two hypotheses: first with an incoherently-radiating quasi-monochromatic point source and the second with two identical closely spaced point sources. We are given…

This paper develops a mathematical theory of super-resolution. Broadly speaking, super-resolution is the problem of recovering the fine details of an object---the high end of its spectrum---from coarse scale information only---from samples…

The discrete curvelet transform decomposes an image into a set of fundamental components that are distinguished by direction and size as well as a low-frequency representation. The curvelet representation is approximately sparse; thus, it…

Compressive sampling is a new paradigm for sampling, based on sparseness of signals or signal representations. It is much less restrictive than Nyquist-Shannon sampling theory and thus explains and systematises the widespread experience…
