Phase retrieval has become a very active area of research. We will classify when phase retrieval by Parseval frames passes to the Naimark complement and when phase retrieval by projections passes to the orthogonal complements. We introduce…
While characterization of coherent wavefields is essential to laser, x-ray and electron imaging, sensors measure the squared magnitude of the field, rather than the field itself. Holography or phase retrieval must be used to characterize…

This paper is about randomized iterative algorithms for solving a linear system of equations $X \beta = y$ in different settings. Recent interest in the topic was reignited when Strohmer and Vershynin (2009) proved the linear convergence…
We propose a new iteration scheme, the Cauchy-Simplex, to optimize convex problems over the probability simplex $\{w\in\mathbb{R}^n\ |\ \sum_i w_i=1\ \textrm{and}\ w_i\geq0\}$. Specifically, we map the simplex to the positive quadrant of a…
We consider the phase retrieval problem for signals that belong to a union of subspaces. We assume that amplitude measurements of the signal of length $n$ are observed after passing it through a random $m \times n$ measurement matrix. We…
We study a phase retrieval problem in the Poisson noise model. Motivated by the PhaseLift approach, we approximate the maximum-likelihood estimator by solving a convex program with a nuclear norm constraint. While the Frank-Wolfe algorithm,…
Phase retrieval is a nonlinear inverse problem that arises in a wide range of imaging modalities, from electron microscopy to Fourier ptychography. In particular, the reconstruction is facilitated when the sensing matrix is i.i.d. random,…

In this paper, we study the phase retrieval problem in the situation where the vector to be recovered has an a priori structure that can encoded into a regularization term. This regularizer is intended to promote solutions conforming to…
This paper deals with sparse phase retrieval, i.e., the problem of estimating a vector from quadratic measurements under the assumption that few components are nonzero. In particular, we consider the problem of finding the sparsest vector…
We show that an idea, originating initially with a fundamental recursive iteration scheme (usually referred as "the" Kaczmarz algorithm), admits important applications in such infinite-dimensional, and non-commutative, settings as are…
We develop a novel, fundamental and surprisingly simple randomized iterative method for solving consistent linear systems. Our method has six different but equivalent interpretations: sketch-and-project, constrain-and-approximate, random…
In this paper, an extension of Kaczmarz method, the Kaczmarz method with oblique projection (KO), is introduced and analyzed. Using this method, a number of iteration steps to solve the over-determined systems of linear equations are…
We consider the recovery of a (real- or complex-valued) signal from magnitude-only measurements, known as phase retrieval. We formulate phase retrieval as a convex optimization problem, which we call PhaseMax. Unlike other convex methods…
The randomized sparse Kaczmarz method, designed for seeking the sparse solutions of the linear systems $Ax=b$, selects the $i$-th projection hyperplane with likelihood proportional to $\|a_{i}\|_2^2$, where $a_{i}^T$ is $i$-th row of $A$.…
For the first time, this paper investigates the phase retrieval problem with the assumption that the phase (of the complex signal) is sparse in contrast to the sparsity assumption on the signal itself as considered in the literature of…
In this article we propose a dynamic approach to complex vector reconstruction in the context of quantum tomography. There are two underlying assumptions behind our reasoning. The first one claims that the evolution of a d-level pure…
We consider the phase retrieval problem of reconstructing a $n$-dimensional real or complex signal $\mathbf{X}^{\star}$ from $m$ (possibly noisy) observations $Y_\mu = | \sum_{i=1}^n \Phi_{\mu i} X^{\star}_i/\sqrt{n}|$, for a large class of…
