Spectral Invariance of $$*$$-Representations of Twisted Convolution Algebras with Applications in Gabor Analysis

We show spectral invariance for faithful $$*$$ ∗ -representations for a class of twisted convolution algebras. More precisely, if G is a locally compact group with a continuous 2-cocycle c for which the corresponding Mackey group $$G_c$$ G c is $$C^*$$ C ∗ -unique and symmetric, then the twisted convolution algebra $$L^1 (G,c)$$ L 1 ( G , c ) is spectrally invariant in $${\mathbb {B}}({\mathcal {H}})$$ B ( H ) for any faithful $$*$$ ∗ -representation of $$L^1 (G,c)$$ L 1 ( G , c ) as bounded operators on a Hilbert space $${\mathcal {H}}$$ H . As an application of this result we give a proof of the statement that if $$\Delta $$ Δ is a closed cocompact subgroup of the phase space of a locally compact abelian group $$G'$$ G ′ , and if g is some function in the Feichtinger algebra $$S_0 (G')$$ S 0 ( G ′ ) that generates a Gabor frame for $$L^2 (G')$$ L 2 ( G ′ ) over $$\Delta $$ Δ , then both the canonical dual atom and the canonical tight atom associated to g are also in $$S_0 (G')$$ S 0 ( G ′ ) . We do this without the use of periodization techniques from Gabor analysis.

Hardy-Sobolev Spaces Associated with Twisted Convolution

We first define the Hardy-Sobolev spaces associated with twisted convolution; then we give the atomic decomposition. As an application, we consider the endpoint version of the div-curl theorem for the twisted convolution.

Molecular Characterization of Hardy Spaces Associated with Twisted Convolution

We give a molecular characterization of the Hardy space associated with twisted convolution. As an application, we prove the boundedness of the local Riesz transform on the Hardy space.
