We analyze signal recovery when samples are taken concomitantly from a signal and its Fourier transform. This two-sided sampling framework extends classical one-sided reconstruction and is particularly useful when measurements in either…

In this work we develop an algorithm for signal reconstruction from the magnitude of its Fourier transform in a situation where some (non-zero) parts of the sought signal are known. Although our method does not assume that the known part…

Can we recover a complex signal from its Fourier magnitudes? More generally, given a set of $m$ measurements, $y_k = |\mathbf a_k^* \mathbf x|$ for $k = 1, \dots, m$, is it possible to recover $\mathbf x \in \mathbb{C}^n$ (i.e., length-$n$…

We study the phase retrieval problem for the short-time Fourier transform on the groups $\mathbb{Z}$, $\mathbb{Z}_d$ and $\mathbb{R}^d$. As is well-known, phase retrieval is possible, once the window's ambiguity function vanishes nowhere.…

We present a new method for real- and complex-valued image reconstruction from two intensity measurements made in the Fourier plane: the Fourier magnitude of the unknown image, and the intensity of the interference pattern arising from…

In coherent diffraction imaging (CDI) experiments, the intensity of the scattered wave impinging on an object is measured on an array of detectors. This signal can be interpreted as the square of the modulus of the Fourier transform of the…

Phase-retrieval techniques aim to recover the original signal from just the modulus of its Fourier transform, which is usually much easier to measure than its phase, but the standard iterative techniques tend to fail if only part of the…

The observables in a single-channel $2$-body scattering problem remain invariant once the amplitude is multiplied by an overall energy- and angle-dependent phase. This invariance is known as the continuum ambiguity. Also, mostly in…
