Implementation of discretized Gabor frames and their duals

The usefulness of Gabor frames depends on the easy computability of a suitable dual window. This question is addressed under several aspects: several versions of Schulz's iterative algorithm for the approximation of the canonical dual window are analyzed for their numerical stability. For Gabor frames with totally positive windows or with exponential B-splines a direct algorithm yields a family of exact dual windows with compact support. It is shown that these dual windows converge exponentially fast to the canonical dual window.

Zeros of the Zak transform of totally positive functions

We study the Zak transform of totally positive (TP) functions. We use the convergence of the Zak transform of TP functions of finite type to prove that the Zak transforms of all TP functions without Gaussian factor in the Fourier transform have only one zero in their fundamental domain of quasi-periodicity. Our proof is based on complex analysis, especially the Theorem of Hurwitz and some real analytic arguments, where we use the connection of TP functions of finite type and exponential B-splines.

Zak transforms and Gabor frames of totally positive functions and exponential B-splines

We study totally positive (TP) functions of finite type and exponential B-splines as window functions for Gabor frames. We establish the connection of the Zak transform of these two classes of functions and prove that the Zak transforms have only one zero in their fundamental domain of quasi-periodicity. Our proof is based on the variation-diminishing property of shifts of exponential B-splines. For the exponential B-spline B_m of order m, we determine a large set of lattice parameters a,b>0 such that the Gabor family of time-frequency shifts is a frame for L^2(R). By the connection of its Zak transform to the Zak transform of TP functions of finite type, our result provides an alternative proof that TP functions of finite type provide Gabor frames for all lattice parameters with ab<1. For even two-sided exponentials and the related exponential B-spline of order 2, we find lower frame-bounds A, which show the asymptotically linear decay A (1-ab) as the density ab of the time-frequency lattice tends to the critical density ab=1.
