Let $\mathcal F_0=\{f_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{I}_{n_0}}$ be a finite sequence of vectors in $\mathbb C^d$ and let $\mathbf{a}=(a_i)_{i\in\mathbb{I}_k}$ be a finite sequence of positive numbers. We consider the completions of $\cal F_0$ of the form…
A Parseval frame is a spanning set for a Hilbert space which satisfies the Parseval identity: a vector can be expressed as a linear combination of the frame whose coefficients are inner products with the frame vectors. There is considerable…

An algorithm which computes a solution of a set optimization problem is provided. The graph of the objective map is assumed to be given by finitely many linear inequalities. A solution is understood to be a set of points in the domain…
We introduce the $q$-potential as an extension of the Benedetto-Fickus frame potential, defined on general reconstruction systems and we show that protocols are the minimizers of this potential under certain restrictions. We extend recent…
Optimization of frame structures is formulated as a~non-convex optimization problem, which is currently solved to local optimality. In this contribution, we investigate four optimization approaches: (i) general non-linear optimization, (ii)…
This paper concerns the geometric structure of optimizers for frame potentials. We consider finite, real or complex frames and rotation or unitarily invariant potentials, and mostly specialize to Parseval frames, meaning the frame potential…

Estimation of convex functions finds broad applications in engineering and science, while convex shape constraint gives rise to numerous challenges in asymptotic performance analysis. This paper is devoted to minimax optimal estimation of…
Frames have established themselves as a means to derive redundant, yet stable decompositions of a signal for analysis or transmission, while also promoting sparse expansions. However, when the signal dimension is large, the computation of…
In this paper we are interested in "optimal" universal geometric inequalities involving the area, diameter and inradius of convex bodies. The term "optimal" is to be understood in the following sense: we tackle the issue of…
