Control barrier functions guarantee safety but typically require accurate system models. Parametric uncertainty invalidates these guarantees. Existing robust methods maintain safety via worst-case bounds, limiting performance, while modular…

The tight-binding model of a graphene bilayer is used to find the gap between the conduction and valence bands, as a function of both the gate voltage and as the doping by donors or acceptors. The total Hartree energy is minimized and the…

We study the frame properties of the Gabor systems $$\mathfrak{G}(g;\alpha,\beta):=\{e^{2\pi i \beta m x}g(x-\alpha n)\}_{m,n\in\mathbb{Z}}.$$ In particular, we prove that for Herglotz windows $g$ such systems always form a frame for…

Using a variant of the Sobolev Embedding Theorem, we prove an uncertainty principle related to Gabor systems that generalizes the Balian-Low Theorem. Namely, if $f\in H^{p/2}(\R)$ and $\hat f\in H^{p'/2}(\R)$ with $1<p<\infty$,…

We show that every rationally sampled dilation-and-modulation system is unitarily equivalent with a multi-window Gabor system. As a consequence, frame theoretical results from Gabor analysis can be directly transferred to…

In this paper, we investigate the Kaczmarz-Tanabe method for exact and inexact linear systems. The Kaczmarz-Tanabe method is derived from the Kaczmarz method, but is more stable than that. We analyze the convergence and the convergence rate…

In a recent paper in Appl. Comput. Harmon. Anal. 38(2), 196--221 (2014) we have introduced and studied the notion of weak Hamiltonian deformation of a Gabor (=Weyl-Heisenberg) frame. In this Note we use these results to prove that one can…

The sparse signal processing literature often uses random sensing matrices to obtain performance guarantees. Unfortunately, in the real world, sensing matrices do not always come from random processes. It is therefore desirable to evaluate…
