Linear Independence of Finite Gabor Systems Determined by Behavior at Infinity

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We prove that the HRT (Heil, Ramanathan, and Topiwala) conjecture holds for finite Gabor systems generated by square-integrable functions with certain behavior at infinity. These functions include functions ultimately decaying faster than any exponential function, as well as square-integrable functions ultimately analytic and whose germs are in a Hardy field that is closed under translations. Two classes of the latter type of functions are the set of square-integrable logarithmico-exponential functions and the set of square-integrable Pfaffian functions. We also prove the HRT conjecture for certain finite Gabor systems generated by positive functions.

The authors gratefully acknowledge the support from the AFOSR-MURI Grant FA9550-05-1-0443. The first-named author is also appreciative of the support of ARO-MURI Grant W911NF-09-1-0383 and NGA Grant HM-1582-08-1-0009. The authors also had the good fortune to obtain expert background and insights from Chris Heil. We note that the results herein were all obtained by early 2008. The authors were motivated to publish upon hearing a beautiful lecture in 2012 by Darrin Speegle reporting on his work [] with Marcin Bownik on the HRT conjecture. Further, we received invaluable assistance from Travis Andrews. Finally, we want to thank the referee for an authoritative, constructive, incisive, thorough review.
