A Balian-Low theorem for nilpotent Lie groups

Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: We prove strict necessary density conditions for smooth coherent frames and Riesz sequences in the orbit of a connected, simply connected, nilpotent Lie group. This extends previous results for homogeneous groups to general nilpotent Lie groups. The main novelty in our approach is that we prove a stability result for coherent frames and Riesz sequences based on deforming their representation rather than their index set.
