Bessel duality of Gabor systems: A von Neumann algebraic perspective

Abstract

Bessel duality of regular Gabor systems states that a Gabor system over a lattice is a Bessel sequence if and only if the corresponding Gabor system over the adjoint lattice is a Bessel sequence. We show that this fundamental result of time-frequency analysis can be deduced from a theorem in the theory of bimodules over von Neumann algebras, namely that under certain conditions, their left and right bounded vectors coincide.
