Approximate oblique duality for fusion frames

Abstract: Fusion frames are a convenient tool in applications where we deal with a large amount of data or when a combination of local data is needed. Oblique dual fusion frames are suitable in situations where the analysis for the data and its subsequent synthesis have to be implemented in different subspaces of a Hilbert space. These procedures of analysis and synthesis are in general not exact, and also there are circumstances where the exact dual is not available or it is necessary to improve its properties. To resolve these questions we introduce the concept of approximate oblique dual fusion frame, and in particular of approximate oblique dual fusion frame system. We study their properties. We give the relation to approximate oblique dual frames. We provide methods for obtaining them. We show how to construct other duals from a given one that give reconstructions errors as small as we want.
