The Radon transform of functions of matrix argument

Abstract

The monograph contains a systematic treatment of a circle of problems in analysis and integral geometry related to inversion of the Radon transform on the space of real rectangular matrices. This transform assigns to a function $f$ on the matrix space the integrals of $f$ over the so-called matrix planes, the linear manifolds determined by the corresponding matrix equations. Different inversion methods are discussed. They rely on close connection between the Radon transform, the Fourier transform, the Garding-Gindikin fractional integrals, and matrix modifications of the Riesz potentials. A special emphasis is made on new higher rank phenomena, in particular, on possibly minimal conditions under which the Radon transform is well defined and can be explicitly inverted. Apart of the space of Schwartz functions, we also employ $L^p$-spaces and the space of continuous functions. Many classical results for the Radon transform on $R^n$ are generalized to the higher rank case.

Spaces with the maximal projection constant revisited

Let $n \geq 2$ be an integer such that an equiangular set of vectors $w_1, \ldots, w_d$ of the maximal possible cardinality (that is, attaining the classical Gerzon upper bound) exists in $\mathbb{K}^n$, where $\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{C}$ (so that $d=\frac{n(n+1)}{2}$ in the real case and $d=n^2$ in the complex case). We provide a complete characterization of $n$-dimensional normed spaces whose absolute projection constant is maximal among all $n$-dimensional normed spaces over $\mathbb{K}$. The characterization states that $X$ has the maximal projection constant if and only if it is isometric to a space whose dual unit ball is contained between the absolutely convex hull of the vectors $w_1, \ldots, w_d$ and a suitably rescaled zonotope generated by the same vectors. As a consequence, we obtain that, in the considered situations, $n=2$ with $\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}$ is the only case in which there is, up to isometry, a unique norm on $\mathbb{K}^n$ with the maximal projection constant. In this case, the unit ball is a linear image of a regular hexagon in $\mathbb{R}^2$.

Subdyadic time-frequency analysis: Gabor frames, modulation spaces, and Miyachi multipliers

We present a time-frequency framework adapted to dispersive phase functions via a subdyadic geometry in phase space. On top of this geometry we construct stable frequency-adaptive Gabor-type frames with quantitative control of overlap, almost orthogonality, and off-diagonal decay. Based on these frames we introduce modulation spaces consistent with the subdyadic scale and establish window and lattice independence, identifications in the Hilbertian case, duality, and natural inclusion relations. Within this setting we study high-frequency H"ormander--Miyachi multipliers, relying on discrete block almost diagonalization and direct localization estimates for the primal and canonical dual frames, and obtain boundedness on weighted modulation spaces. Finally, we give a subdyadic Gabor-frame characterization of H"ormander's classical local wavefront set and recover the standard microlocality and ellipticity properties of order-zero pseudodifferential operators. Taken together, these results provide a unified analytical framework for time--frequency analysis, dispersive multiplier theory, and local microlocal analysis in the subdyadic geometry.

B-Frames, B-Riesz bases, and Their tensor products

Like g-frames, b-frames were introduced to generalize the concept of frames, allowing for broader applications in signal processing and other fields. The advantage of b-frames resides in their simpler definition, which may lead to reduced processing times. In this paper, we define dual b-frames and b-Riesz bases which were not precisely defined in previous literature and provide several characterizations of b-Riesz bases. We prove that the tensor product of two sequences, each lying in a Hilbert space, constitutes a b-frame (or a b-Riesz basis) if and only if both components of the product are b-frames (or b-Riesz bases). Finally, we establish a correspondence between b-frames and g-frames and propose a process for constructing frames induced by b-frames.
