Gabor-type Frames from Generalized Weyl-Heisenberg Groups
Abstract
Description
We present in this paper a construction for Gabor-type frames built out of generalized Weyl-Heisenberg groups. These latter are obtained via central extensions of groups which are direct products of locally compact abelian groups and their duals. Our results generalize many of the results, appearing in the literature, on frames built out of the Schrödinger representation of the standard Weyl-Heisenberg group. In particular, we obtain a generalization of the result in \cite{PO}, in which the product $ab$ determines whether it is possible for the Gabor system $\{E_{mb}T_{na}g \}_{m,n\in \mathbb Z}$ to be a frame for $L^2(\mathbb R)$. As a particular example of the theory, we study in some detail the case of the generalized Weyl-Heisenberg group built out of the $d$-dimensional torus. In the same spirit we also construct generalized shift-invariant systems.
