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.
However, when @math , not much is known except few special cases. In @cite_12 , Ehler and Okoudjou solved the simplest case where @math and @math and also proved that the minimizer of the @math -frame potential is exactly @math copies of an orthonormal basis if @math where @math is a positive integer. In @cite_4 , Glazyrin provided a lower bound for any @math : but the condition under which the equality holds is very harsh. In @cite_13 , Chen, Gonzales, Goodman, Kang and Okoudjou considered this special case where @math . Particularly, numerical experiments in @cite_13 show that the set @math , which is called lifted ETF, seems to be the minimizer of the @math -frame potential where @math is an integer depending on @math . Here, @math is defined as a set of @math unit vectors in @math satisfying . . Note that @math actually forms an ETF in some subspace @math with dimension @math and the rest of @math vectors form an orthonormal basis in the orthogonal complement space of @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 . Let f be a random Boolean formula that is an instance of 3-SAT. We consider the problem of computing the least real number k such that if the ratio of the number of clauses over the number of variables of f strictly exceeds k , then f is almost certainly unsatisfiable. By a well-known and more or less straightforward argument, it can be shown that kF5.191. This upper bound was improved by to 4.758 by first providing new improved bounds for the occupancy problem. There is strong experimental evidence that the value of k is around 4.2. In this work, we define, in terms of the random formula f, a decreasing sequence of random variables such that, if the expected value of any one of them converges to zero, then f is almost certainly unsatisfiable. By letting the expected value of the first term of the sequence converge to zero, we obtain, by simple and elementary computations, an upper bound for k equal to 4.667. From the expected value of the second term of the sequence, we get the value 4.601q .

CCC 1042-9832r98r030253-17 253 This paper considers recovering @math -dimensional vectors @math , and @math from their circular convolutions @math . The vector @math is assumed to be @math -sparse in a known basis that is spread out in the Fourier domain, and each input @math is a member of a known @math -dimensional random subspace. We prove that whenever @math , the problem can be solved effectively by using only the nuclear-norm minimization as the convex relaxation, as long as the inputs are sufficiently diverse and obey @math . By “diverse inputs,” we mean that the @math ’s belong to different, generic subspaces. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first theoretical result on blind deconvolution where the subspace to which @math belongs is not fixed but needs to be determined. We discuss the result in the context of multipath channel estimation in wireless communications. Both the fading coefficients and the delays in the channel impulse response @math are unknown. The encoder codes the @math -dimensional message vectors randomly and then transmits coded messages @math ’s over a fixed channel one after the other. The decoder then discovers all of the messages and the channel response when the number of samples taken for each received message are roughly greater than @math , and the number of messages is roughly at least @math . We develop fast and memory efficient numerical methods for learning functions of many variables that admit sparse representations in terms of general bounded orthonormal tensor product bases. Such functions appear in many applications including, e.g., various Uncertainty Quantification(UQ) problems involving the solution of parametric PDE that are approximately sparse in Chebyshev or Legendre product bases. We expect that our results provide a starting point for a new line of research on sublinear-time solution techniques for UQ applications of the type above which will eventually be able to scale to significantly higher-dimensional problems than what are currently computationally feasible. More concretely, let @math be a finite Bounded Orthonormal Product Basis (BOPB) of cardinality @math . We will develop methods that approximate any function @math that is sparse in the BOPB, that is, @math of the form @math with @math of cardinality @math . Our method has a runtime of just @math , uses only @math function evaluations on a fixed and nonadaptive grid, and not more than @math bits of memory. For @math , the runtime @math will be less than what is required to simply enumerate the elements of the basis @math ; thus our method is the first approach applicable in a general BOPB framework that falls into the class referred to as "sublinear-time". This and the similarly reduced sample and memory requirements set our algorithm apart from previous works based on standard compressive sensing algorithms such as basis pursuit which typically store and utilize full intermediate basis representations of size @math .
