In this paper, we mainly establish the uncertainty principle (UP) for a function and its quaternion Fractional Fourier transform (QFrFT), as well as the UP for two QFrFTs. Using the polar representation of quaternion-valued signals, we give…

The entropy/influence conjecture, raised by Friedgut and Kalai in 1996, seeks to relate two different measures of concentration of the Fourier coefficients of a Boolean function. Roughly saying, it claims that if the Fourier spectrum is…

Motivated by problems in control theory concerning decay rates for the damped wave equation $$w_{tt}(x,t) + \gamma(x) w_t(x,t) + (-\Delta + 1)^{s/2} w(x,t) = 0,$$ we consider an analogue of the classical Paneah-Logvinenko-Sereda theorem for…

In many applications, the observations can be represented as a signal defined over the vertices of a graph. The analysis of such signals requires the extension of standard signal processing tools. In this work, first, we provide a class of…

The time-frequency uncertainty principle states that the product of the temporal and frequency extents of a signal cannot be smaller than $1/(4\pi)$. We study human ability to simultaneously judge the frequency and the timing of a sound.…
