We show that there exists a frame wavelet ψ with fast decay in the time domain and compact support in the frequency domain generating a wavelet system whose canonical dual frame cannot be generated by an arbitrary number of generators. On the other hand, there exists infinitely many alternate duals of ψ generated by a single function. Our argument closes a gap in the original proof of this fact...

The variety of Heyting algebras has a nice property that HS = SH. Heyting algebras are the algebraic dual of intuitionistic descriptive frames. The goal of this paper is to define proper dual notions so as to formulate this algebraic properties in the frame language, and to give a frame-based proof of this property and some other duality theorems.

Frames are the foundation of the linear operators used in the decomposition and reconstruction of signals, such as the discrete Fourier transform, Gabor, wavelets, and curvelet transforms. The emergence of sparse representation models has shifted of the emphasis in frame theory toward sparse l1-minimization problems. In this paper, we apply frame theory to the sparse representation of signals i...

OBJECTIVES We assessed the comparability of self-reported smoking prevalence estimates from a dual-frame survey with those from two large-scale, national surveys. METHODS The Social Climate Survey of Tobacco Control (SCS-TC) obtained self-reported current smoking status via a dual-frame methodology in the fall of 2010. One frame used random digit dialling procedures and consisted of household...

We consider three problems for Gabor frames that have recently received much attention. The first problem concerns the approximation of dual Gabor frames in L2(R) by finite-dimensional methods. Utilizing Wexler-Raz type duality relations we derive a method to approximate the dual Gabor frame, that is much simpler than previously proposed techniques. Furthermore it enables us to give estimates f...

We design alternative dual frames for linearly reconstructing signals from Sigma-Delta (Σ∆) quantized finite frame coefficients. In the setting of sampling expansions for bandlimited functions, it is known that a stable rth order Sigma-Delta quantizer produces approximations where the approximation error is at most of order 1/λ , and λ > 1 is the oversampling ratio. We show that the counterpart...

Weighted and controlled frames have been introduced recently to improve the numerical efficiency of iterative algorithms for inverting the frame operator. In this paper we develop systematically these notions, including their mutual relationship. We will show that controlled frames are equivalent to standard frames and so this concept gives a generalized way to check the frame condition, while ...

In this paper, we define super Hilbert module and investigate frames in this space. Super Hilbert modules are  generalization of super Hilbert spaces in Hilbert C*-module setting. Also, we define frames in a super Hilbert module and characterize them by using of the concept of g-frames in a Hilbert C*-module. Finally, disjoint frames in Hilbert C*-modules are introduced and investigated.
