Discrete uniqueness sets for the two-sided Laplace transform?
Let $f : \mathbb R_+ \to \mathbb C$ be a measurable and integrable function where $\mathbb R_+ = [0,\infty)$. The Laplace transform of $f$ is given by
$$
Lf(s) = \int_0^\infty f(x)e^{-sx} \, dx.

Selecting some linearly independent columns of a particular matrix
Let us consider the matrix $C=A_1+A_2$ where :
$A_1=(a_{k,l})_{k,l=0}^{n-1}$ is the $n$ by $n$ matrix given by $a_{k,l}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{n}}(\cos\frac{2kl\pi}{n})$
$A_2$ is the the $n$ by $n$ block ...

A particular commutator of the discrete Fourier matrix
For $N$ be a fixed natural number, define $w=e^{\frac{2\pi i}{N}}$ and $z=e^{\frac{\pi i}{N}}$, so that $z^2=w$. Let $D$ be the diagonal matrix $D=\operatorname{diag}(1,z,z^2,\ldots,z^{N-1})$ and $F$ ...

Consistent approximation of weighted Radon transform of smooth probability density, using kernel density estimation
Let $X$ be a random vector in $\mathbb R^d$, with "sufficiently smooth" probability density function on $\rho$. For unit-vectors $w$ and $u$ in $\mathbb R^d$, and a scalar $b \in \mathbb R$, ...

Continuous wavelet transform of a periodic function
I have a question regarding the Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) of non finite energy functions, such as $g(t) = a\exp(i\omega_0t)$. We know that the CWT is defined for functions in the Hilbert ...

Is there a way to reconstruct the convolution $(f * g)(x)$ of $f$ with a Gaussian $g$ from sampled values, $(f*g)(a), a \in A$?
Suppose that $f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{C}$ is a function which has support in $[-1,1]$. Let $g = g_\sigma$ be a centered Gaussian with variance $\sigma^2$. Is there a way to reconstruct the ...

Are the Prolate Spheroidal Wave Functions absolutely integrable?
I would like to know if the Prolate Spheroidal Wavefunctions (PSWFs, defined below) are in $L^1(\mathbb{R})$. I know that they are square integrable, but cannot decide about absolute integrability.

How far can the domain of definition of multiplier operators be extended?
Given any $g \in L^\infty(\mathbb{R})$, we define the associated multiplier operator $T_g \colon L^2(\mathbb{R}) \to L^2(\mathbb{R})$ by
$$ \mathcal{F}(T_g f) \ = \ g.\mathcal{F}f $$
where $\mathcal{F}...

When is a mapping the proximity operator of some convex function?
Is there a characterization of mappings $p : \mathbb R^n \rightarrow \mathbb R^n$ which are proximity operators (in the sense of Moreau) of l.s.c (extended) real-valued functions ?
That is, given $p : ...

In which sense Daubechies wavelets converge to the Shannon wavelet?
My question is about wavelets theory. Consider $\psi_n$ the Daubechies wavelet of order $n \geq 1$; that is, the Daubechies wavelet with $n$ vanishing moments. We also define the Shannon wavelet in ...
