Abstract

In this paper we survey a recent progress on continuous frames inspired by the solution of the Kadison-Singer problem [26] by Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava [29]. We present an extension of Lyapunov’s theorem for discrete frames due to Akemann and Weaver [2] and a similar extension for continuous frames by the author [10]. We also outline a solution of the discretization problem, which was originally posed by Ali, Antoine, and Gazeau [4], and recently solved by Freeman and Speegle [22].
