We study the Zak transform of totally positive (TP) functions. We use the convergence of the Zak transform of TP functions of finite type to prove that the Zak transforms of all TP functions without Gaussian factor in the Fourier transform…

The frame set of a window $\phi\in L^2(\mathbb{R})$ is the subset of all lattice parameters $(\alpha, \beta)\in \mathbb{R}^2_+$ such that $\mathcal{G}(\phi,\alpha,\beta)=\{e^{2\pi i\beta m\cdot}\phi(\cdot-\alpha k) : k, m\in\mathbb{Z}\}$…

Let $g$ be a totally positive function of finite type. Then the Gabor set $\{e^{2\pi i \beta l t} g(t-\alpha k), k,l \in Z \}$ is a frame for $L^2(R)$, if and only if $\alpha \beta <1$. This result is a first positive contribution to a…

We show that $(g_2,a,b)$ is a Gabor frame when $a>0, b>0, ab<1$ and $g_2(t)=({1/2}\pi \gamma)^{{1/2}} (\cosh \pi \gamma t)^{-1}$ is a hyperbolic secant with scaling parameter $\gamma >0$. This is accomplished by expressing the Zak transform…

Let $a,b,c\in\mathbb C$ with $\re(a)<0$, we show that the extended Gaussian $e^{ax^2+bx+c}$ has maximal frame set (i.e., its frame set consists of precisely all positive pairs $(\alpha,\beta)$ with $\alpha\beta<1$), and its Zak transform…

We investigate the completeness of Gabor systems with respect to several classes of window functions on rational lattices. Our main results show that the time-frequency shifts of every finite linear combination of Hermite functions with…

A Gabor system generated by a window function $g\in L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ and a separable set $\Lambda\times \Gamma \subset \mathbb{R}^{2d}$ is the collection of time-frequency shifts of $g$ given by $\mathcal G(g, \Lambda\times \Gamma) =…

We show that for an arbitrary totally positive function $g\in L^1(\mathbb{R} )$ and $\alpha \beta$ rational, the Gabor family $\{e^{2\pi i \beta l t} g(t-\alpha k): k,l \in \mathbb{Z} \}$ is a frame for $L^2(\mathbb{R})$, if and only if…

We develop an alternative approach to the study of Fourier series, based on the Short-Time-Fourier Transform (STFT) acting on $L_{\nu }^{2}(0,1)$, the space of measurable functions $f$ in ${R}$, square-integrable in $ (0,1)$, and…

We give a general construction of entire functions in $d$ complex variables that vanish on a lattice of the form $L = A (Z + i Z )^d$ for an invertible complex-valued matrix. As an application we exhibit a class of lattices of density >1…

Let $g\in L^2(\mathbb{R})$ be a strictly decreasing continuous function supported on $\mathbb{R}_+$ such that for all $t > 0$ we have $g(x+t)\le q(t)g(x)$ for some $q(t)<1$. We prove that the Gabor system…

We show that a sufficient density condition for Gabor systems with Hermite functions over lattices is not sufficient in general. This follows from a result on how zeros of the Zak transform determine the frame property of integer…

The topic of this paper are (multi-window) Gabor frames for signals over finite Abelian groups, generated by an arbitrary lattice within the finite time-frequency plane. Our generic approach covers simultaneously multi-dimensional signals…

A Gabor system generated by a window function $\phi$ and a rectangular lattice $a \Z\times \Z/b$ is given by $${\mathcal G}(\phi, a \Z\times \Z/b):=\{e^{-2\pi i n t/b} \phi(t- m a):\ (m, n)\in \Z\times \Z\}.$$ One of fundamental problems in…

We consider a variant of the Zak transform for a finite group $G$ with respect to a fixed abelian subgroup $H$, and demonstrate a relationship with representations of $G$ induced from characters of $H$. We also show how the Zak transform…

We establish novel uniqueness results for the Gabor phase retrieval problem: if $\mathcal{G} : L^2(\mathbb{R}) \to L^2(\mathbb{R}^2)$ denotes the Gabor transform then every $f \in L^4[-\tfrac{c}{2},\tfrac{c}{2}]$ is determined up to a…

Let $(g_{nm})_{n,m\in Z}$ be a Gabor frame for $L_2(R)$ for given window $g$. We show that the window $h^0=S^{-1/2} g$ that generates the canonically associated tight Gabor frame minimizes $\|g-h\|$ among all windows $h$ generating a…

We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for a principal shift invariant space of $L^2(\mathbb{R})$ to be invariant under translations by the subgroup $\frac{1}{N} \mathbb{Z}, N>1$. This condition is given in terms of the Zak transform…
