For any positive real number @math , the @math -frame potential of @math unit vectors @math is defined as @math . In this paper, we focus on the special case @math and establish the unique minimizer of @math for @math . Our results completely solve the minimization problem of @math -frame potential when @math , which confirms a conjecture posed by Chen, Gonzales, Goodman, Kang and Okoudjou.
For any @math , Ehler and Okoudjou provided another bound in @cite_12 : where the equality holds if and only if @math is an equiangular tight frame (ETF) in @math @cite_1 @cite_15 . We take @math as an example. Since there always exist @math unit vectors in @math forming an ETF @cite_3 , then the set of these @math vectors is the minimizer of the @math -frame potential for @math .

An extension is given of a recent result of Glazyrin, showing that an orthonormal basis @math joined with the vectors @math , where @math minimizes the @math -frame potential for @math over all collections of @math vectors @math in @math . Abstract We investigate the recovery of almost s -sparse vectors x ∈ C N from undersampled and inaccurate data y = A x + e ∈ C m by means of minimizing ‖ z ‖ 1 subject to the equality constraints A z = y . If m ≍ s ln ( N s ) and if Gaussian random matrices A ∈ R m × N are used, this equality-constrained l 1 -minimization is known to be stable with respect to sparsity defects and robust with respect to measurement errors. If m ≍ s ln ( N s ) and if Weibull random matrices are used, we prove here that the equality-constrained l 1 -minimization remains stable and robust. The arguments are based on two key ingredients, namely the robust null space property and the quotient property. The robust null space property relies on a variant of the classical restricted isometry property where the inner norm is replaced by the l 1 -norm and the outer norm is replaced by a norm comparable to the l 2 -norm. For the l 1 -minimization subject to inequality constraints, this yields stability and robustness results that are also valid when considering sparsity relative to a redundant dictionary. As for the quotient property, it relies on lower estimates for the tail probability of sums of independent Weibull random variables. Let (a>0, b>0, ab<1; ) and let (g L^2( R ). ) In this paper we investigate the relation between the frame operator (S:f L^2( R ) n,m ,(f,g_ na,mb ) ,g_ na,mb ) and the matrix (H ) whose entries (H_ k,l ,; ,k',l' ) are given by ((g_ k' b,l' a ,g_ k b,l a ) ) for (k,l,k',l' Z . ) Here (f_ x,y (t)= exp (2 iyt) ,f(t-x), ) (t R ), for any (f L^2( R ). ) We show that (S ) is bounded as a mapping of (L^2( R ) ) into (L^2( R ) ) if and only if (H ) is bounded as a mapping of (l^2( Z ^2) ) into (l^2( Z ^2). ) Also we show that (AI S BI ) if and only if (AI 1 ab ,H BI, ) where (I ) denotes the identity operator of (L^2( R ) ) and (l^2( Z ^2), ) respectively, and (A 0, ) (B< . ) Next, when (g ) generates a frame, we have that ((g_ k b,l a )_ k,l ) has an upper frame bound, and the minimal dual function (^ ) can be computed as (ab , k,l ,(H^ -1 )_ k,l ,; ,o,o ,g_ k b,l a . ) The results of this paper extend, generalize, and rigourize results of Wexler and Raz and of Qian, D. Chen, K. Chen, and Li on the computation of dual functions for finite, discrete-time Gabor expansions to the infinite, continuous-time case. Furthermore, we present a framework in which one can show that certain smoothness and decay properties of a (g ) generating a frame are inherited by (^ . ) In particular, we show that (^ S ) when (g S ) generates a frame (( S ) Schwartz space). The proofs of the main results of this paper rely heavily on a technique introduced by Tolimieri and Orr for relating frame bound questions on complementary lattices by means of the Poisson summation formula. We study the problem of fair allocation for indivisible goods. We use the the maxmin share paradigm introduced by Budish as a measure for fairness. Procacciafirst (EC'14) were first to investigate this fundamental problem in the additive setting. In contrast to what real-world experiments suggest, they show that a maxmin guarantee (1- @math allocation) is not always possible even when the number of agents is limited to 3. While the existence of an approximation solution (e.g. a @math - @math allocation) is quite straightforward, improving the guarantee becomes subtler for larger constants. Procaccia provide a proof for existence of a @math - @math allocation and leave the question open for better guarantees. Our main contribution is an answer to the above question. We improve the result of ! to a @math factor in the additive setting. The main idea for our @math - @math allocation method is clustering the agents. To this end, we introduce three notions and techniques, namely reducibility, matching allocation, and cycle-envy-freeness, and prove the approximation guarantee of our algorithm via non-trivial applications of these techniques. Our analysis involves coloring and double counting arguments that might be of independent interest. One major shortcoming of the current studies on fair allocation is the additivity assumption on the valuations. We alleviate this by extending our results to the case of submodular, fractionally subadditive, and subadditive settings. More precisely, we give constant approximation guarantees for submodular and XOS agents, and a logarithmic approximation for the case of subadditive agents. Furthermore, we complement our results by providing close upper bounds for each class of valuation functions. Finally, we present algorithms to find such allocations for additive, submodular, and XOS settings in polynomial time.
