Cheeger Bounds for Stable Phase Retrieval in Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces

Abstract

Phase retrieval seeks to reconstruct a signal from phaseless intensity measurements and, in applications where measurements contain errors, demands stable reconstruction. We study local stability of phase retrieval in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Motivated by Grohs-Rathmair's Cheeger-type estimate for Gabor phase retrieval, we introduce a kernel Cheeger constant that quantifies connectedness relative to kernel localization. This notion yields a clean stability certificate: we establish a unified lower bound over both real and complex fields, and in the real case also an upper bound, each in terms of the reciprocal kernel Cheeger constant. Our framework treats finite- and infinite-dimensional settings uniformly and covers discrete, semi-discrete, and continuous measurement domains. For generalized wavelet phase retrieval from (semi-)discrete frames, we bound the kernel Cheeger constant by the Cheeger constant of a data-dependent weighted graph. We further characterize phase retrievability for generalized wavelet transforms and derive a simple sufficient criterion for wavelet sign retrieval in arbitrary dimension for transforms associated with irreducibly admissible matrix groups.

Typical dynamical properties of operators on $\ell_p$

We investigate the typical dynamical properties of hypercyclic operators in $\mathcal{L}_M(X)$, the set of all bounded linear operators on $X$ whose norms are at most $M$, when $X=\ell_p$, $1< p<\infty$. We show that, with respect to SOT$^*$, a typical operator $T\in \mathcal{L}_M(X)$ is weakly mixing, is weakly disjoint from a given hypercyclic operator $S$, is not topologically ergodic, and satisfies $(T,T^2,\dotsc,T^k)$ is disjoint hypercyclic for any $k\geq 2$. We also study the typical dynamical properties for the concrete family $\mathcal{M}=\{I+B_w\in \mathcal{L}(X)\colon w\in c_0(\mathbb{Z})\}$, endowed with the norm topology, where $B_w$ is a bilateral weighted backward shift.

A bi-Lipschitz characterization of strong minimum-attainment for Lipschitz maps

We completely characterize the denseness of strongly minimum-attaining Lipschitz functions, a minimum analogue for strongly norm-attaining Lipschitz functions, in terms of bi-Lipschitz embeddings. More precisely, our main result shows that the set of strongly minimum-attaining Lipschitz functions defined on a complete metric space $M$ fails the denseness if and only if $M$ is bi-Lipschitz equivalent to a subset of $\mathbb{R}$ with positive Lebesgue measure, or equivalently, if $M$ admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into $\mathbb{R}$ and $M$ has positive 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure. As a consequence, we provide an isometric characterization of the pure 1-unrectifiability of $M$ in terms of strongly minimum-attaining Lipschitz maps defined on bi-Lipschitz copies of closed subsets of $M$. Several counterexamples showing that the main result cannot be naturally extended to the vector-valued setting are also presented.

On weak dominance of t-conorms over t-norms

The weak dominance of aggregation operators, particularly between triangular norms (t-norms) and triangular conorms (t-conorms), has attracted considerable attention in aggregation operator theory. While several characterizations have been obtained for Archimedean and continuous cases, a general criterion for continuous t-conorms over continuous t-norms remains to be fully clarified. In this paper, we provide a complete characterization of a continuous t-conorm weakly dominating a continuous t-norm. We first reduce the problem for ordinal sum operators to that for their single Archimedean components, and then express the weak dominance condition entirely in terms of the additive generators of these components. Our approach covers both strict and nilpotent cases uniformly, and recovers the known results for Archimedean operators as a special case.
