Abstract

With motivation from the theory of Hilbert-Schmidt operators we review recent topics concerning frames in L2(ℝ) and their duals. Frames are generalizations of orthonormal bases in Hilbert spaces. As for an orthonormal basis, a frame allows each element in the underlying Hilbert space to be written as an unconditionally convergent infinite linear combination of the frame elements; however, in contrast to the situation for a basis, the coefficients might not be unique. We present the basic facts from frame theory and the motivation for the fact that most recent research concentrates on tight frames or dual frame pairs rather than general frames and their canonical dual. The corresponding results for Gabor frames and wavelet frames are discussed in detail.KeywordsFramesHilbert-Schmidt integral operatorsGabor systemswaveletsgeneralized shift-invariant spaces
