We consider the problem of rescaling the lengths of a finite frame thereby transforming it into a tight one. Such frames are called scalable and have received a lot of attention in recent years. In this note we investigate the question in…
Tight frames can be characterized as those frames which possess optimal numerical stability properties. In this paper, we consider the question of modifying a general frame to generate a tight frame by rescaling its frame vectors; a process…
In this paper we define "piecewise scalable frames". This new scaling process allows us to alter many frames to Parseval frames which is impossible by the previous standard scaling. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a frame to…
The recently introduced and characterized scalable frames can be considered as those frames which allow for perfect preconditioning in the sense that the frame vectors can be rescaled to yield a tight frame. In this paper we define…
A (unit norm) frame is scalable if its vectors can be rescaled so as to result into a tight frame. Tight frames can be considered optimally conditioned because the condition number of their frame operators is unity. In this paper we…
We study the problem of determining whether a given frame is scalable, and when it is, understanding the set of all possible scalings. We show that for most frames this is a relatively simple task in that the frame is either not scalable or…
A Hilbert space frame on $R^n$ is {\it scalable} if we can scale the vectors to make them a tight frame. There are known classifications of scalable frames. There are two basic questions here which have never been answered in any $R^n$:…
This paper investigates scalable frame in ${\mathbb R}^n$. We define the reduced diagram matrix of a frame and use it to classify scalability of the frame under some conditions. We give a new approach to the scaling problem by breaking the…
Functions of one or more variables are usually approximated with a basis: a complete, linearly-independent system of functions that spans a suitable function space. The topic of this paper is the numerical approximation of functions using…
Due to their flexibility, frames of Hilbert spaces are attractive alternatives to bases in approximation schemes for problems where identifying a basis is not straightforward or even feasible. Computing a best approximation using frames,…
Tight frames and rank-one quantum measurements are shown to be intimately related. In fact, the family of normalized tight frames for the space in which a quantum mechanical system lies is precisely the family of rank-one generalized…
We solve the problem of best approximation by partial isometries of given rank to an arbitrary rectangular matrix, when the distance is measured in any unitarily invariant norm. In the case where the norm is strictly convex, we parametrize…
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…
For a unit-norm frame $F = \{f_i\}_{i=1}^k$ in $\R^n$, a scaling is a vector $c=(c(1),\dots,c(k))\in \R_{\geq 0}^k$ such that $\{\sqrt{c(i)}f_i\}_{i =1}^k$ is a Parseval frame in $\R^n$. If such a scaling exists, $F$ is said to be scalable.…
Finite frames can be viewed as mass points distributed in $N$-dimensional Euclidean space. As such they form a subclass of a larger and rich class of probability measures that we call probabilistic frames. We derive the basic properties of…
In this paper, we first prove a theorem by a little modification on the Lax-Milgram theorem. Then, using $K$-frames, we obtain lower and upper bounds for the results obtained from this theorem. Also, we present some methods for the…
Weighted and controlled frames have been introduced recently to improve the numerical efficiency of iterative algorithms for inverting the frame operator. In this paper we develop systematically these notions, including their mutual…
Unit norm finite frames are generalizations of orthonormal bases with many applications in signal processing. An important property of a frame is its coherence, a measure of how close any two vectors of the frame are to each other. Low…
Given a frame in a finite dimensional Hilbert space we construct additive perturbations which decrease the condition number of the frame. By iterating this perturbation, we introduce an algorithm that produces a tight frame in a finite…
A measure of quality of a control system is a quantitative extension of the classical binary notion of controllability. In this article we study the quality of linear control systems from a frame-theoretic perspective. We demonstrate that…
