In this work a linearly constrained minimization of a positive semidefinite quadratic functional is examined. Our results are concerning infinite dimensional real Hilbert spaces, with a singular positive operator related to the functional,…
We introduce an extension of the convex potentials for finite frames (e.g. the frame potential defined by Benedetto and Fickus) in the framework of Bessel sequences of integer translates of finite sequences in $L^2(\R^k)$. We show that…
A common optimization problem is the minimization of a symmetric positive definite quadratic form $< x,Tx >$ under linear constrains. The solution to this problem may be given using the Moore-Penrose inverse matrix. In this work we extend…
This work is concerned with the convex analysis of functions defined on (not necessarily finite-dimensional) Hilbert spaces whose values depend solely on a certain ``spectrum'' of the arguments, a class we term ``spectral functions.'' We…
In this paper we study the fusion frame potential, that is a generalization of the Benedetto-Fickus (vectorial) frame potential to the finite-dimensional fusion frame setting. The structure of local and global minimizers of this potential…
We prove minimax theorems for lower semicontinuous functions defined on a Hilbert space. The main tool is the theory of $\Phi$-convex functions and sufficient and necessary conditions for the minimax equality to hold for $\Phi$-convex…
In this paper we consider two problems in frame theory. On the one hand, given a set of vectors $\mathcal F$ we describe the spectral and geometrical structure of optimal completions of $\mathcal F$ by a finite family of vectors with…
This note deals with certain properties of convex functions. We provide results on the convexity of the set of minima of these functions, the behaviour of their subgradient set under restriction, and optimization of these functions over an…
Parallel and cyclic projection algorithms are proposed for minimizing the sum of a finite family of convex functions over the intersection of a finite family of closed convex subsets of a Hilbert space. These algorithms are of…
We study the minimizers of the fusion frame potential in the case that both the weights and the dimensions of the subspaces are fixed and not necessarily equal. Using a concept of irregularity we provide a description of the local (that are…
In this paper, we study the Hilbert$-$Schmidt frame (HS-frame) theory for separable Hilbert spaces. We first present some characterizations of HS-frames and prove that HS-frames share many important properties with frames. Then, we show how…
Entropy functionals (i.e. convex integral functionals) and extensions of these functionals are minimized on convex sets. This paper is aimed at reducing as much as possible the assumptions on the constraint set. Dual equalities and…
Operator-valued frames are natural generalization of frames that have been used in quantum computing, packets encoding, etc. In this paper, we focus on developing the theory about operator-valued frames for finite Hilbert spaces. Some…
In this note, we highlight some properties of the metric projection onto a closed convex in a Hilbert space. In particular, we use some recent results on fixed points of nonexpansive potential operators.
We study functions of bounded variation (and sets of finite perimeter) on a convex open set $\Omega\subseteq X$, $X$ being an infinite dimensional real Hilbert space. We relate the total variation of such functions, defined through an…
In 2003, Benedetto and Fickus introduced a vivid intuition for an objective function called the frame potential, whose global minimizers are fundamental objects known today as unit norm tight frames. Their main result was that the frame…
In information theory, some optimization problems result in convex optimization problems on strictly convex functionals of probability densities. In this note, we study these problems and show conditions of minimizers and the uniqueness of…
In this note we provide a full conjugacy and subdifferential calculus for convex convex-composite functions in finite-dimensional space. Our approach, based on infimal convolution and cone-convexity, is straightforward and yields the…
This paper deals with the possibility of transforming a weakly measurable function in a Hilbert space into a continuous frame by a metric operator, i.e., a strictly positive self-adjoint operator. A necessary condition is that the domain of…
Given a finite sequence of vectors $\mathcal F_0$ in $\C^d$ we describe the spectral and geometrical structure of optimal completions of $\mathcal F_0$ obtained by adding a finite sequence of vectors with prescribed norms, where optimality…
