We study sharp frame bounds of Gabor frames with the standard Gaussian window and prove that the square lattice optimizes both the lower and the upper frame bound among all rectangular lattices. This proves a conjecture of Floch, Alard &…
Redundant Gabor frames admit an infinite number of dual frames, yet only the canonical dual Gabor system, constructed from the minimal l2-norm dual window, is widely used. This window function however, might lack desirable properties, e.g.…
We give an explicit criterion for a rational lattice in the time-frequency plane to admit a Gabor frame with window in the Schwartz class. The criterion is an inequality formulated in terms of the lattice covolume, the dimension of the…
In this work we study families of pairs of window functions and lattices which lead to Gabor frames which all possess the same frame bounds. To be more precise, for every generalized Gaussian $g$, we will construct an uncountable family of…
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 usefulness of Gabor frames depends on the easy computability of a suitable dual window. This question is addressed under several aspects: several versions of Schulz's iterative algorithm for the approximation of the canonical dual…
We investigate sharp frame bounds of Gabor frames with chirped Gaussians and rectangular lattices or, equivalently, the case of the standard Gaussian and general lattices. We prove that for even redundancy and standard Gaussian window the…
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…
Nonstationary Gabor frames, recently introduced in adaptive signal analysis, represent a natural generalization of classical Gabor frames by allowing for adaptivity of windows and lattice in either time or frequency. Due to the lack of a…
We report on initial findings on Gabor systems with multivariate Gaussian window. Unlike the existing characterisation for dimension one in terms of lattice density, our results indicate that the behavior of Gaussians in higher-dimensional…
Nonstationary Gabor frames were recently introduced in adaptive signal analysis. They represent a natural generalization of classical Gabor frames by allowing for adaptivity of windows and lattice in either time or frequency. In this paper…
In this paper, we investigate the robustness of structured frames to measurement noise and erasures, with the focus on Gabor frames $(g, \Lambda)$ with arbitrary sets of time-frequency shifts $\Lambda$. This property of frames is important…
We study the frame property of the Gabor system corresponding to an irregular lattice with a single Cauchy kernel as the generating window.
In this article we are going to discuss the conjecture of Strohmer and Beaver for Gaussian Gabor systems. It asks for an optimal sampling pattern in the time-frequency plane, where optimality is measured in terms of the condition number of…
We provide a construction of Gabor frames that encode local linearizations of a signal detected on a curved smooth manifold of arbitrary dimension, with Gabor filters that can detect the presence of higher-dimensional boundaries in the…
Although frames, which are a generalization of bases, are important tools used in signal processing, their potential in other fields of engineering and applied mathematics (e.g. acoustics) has not been fully explored yet. Gabor frames, that…
We investigate vector-valued Gabor frames (sometimes called Gabor superframes) based on Hermite functions $H_n$. Let $h= (H_0, H_1, ..., H_n)$ be the vector of the first $n+1$ Hermite functions. We give a complete characterization of all…
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 extra time-frequency shift invariance properties of Gabor spaces. For a Gabor space generated by an integer lattice, we state and prove several characterizations for its time-frequency shift invariance with respect to a finer…
We prove fourteen equivalent conditions for a set of timefrequency shifts on a lattice to be a frame for L^2. Remarkably, several of these conditions can be formulated without an inequality. In particular, instead of checking the…
