Recently, a classification of square-integrable signals which are not phase retrievable from Gabor measurements on parallel lines has been presented. This classification was used to exhibit a family of counterexamples to uniqueness in sampled Gabor phase retrieval. Here, we show that the set of counterexamples to uniqueness in sampled Gabor phase retrieval is dense in $L^2(\\mathbb{R})$, but is not equal to the whole of $L^2(\\mathbb{R})$ in general. Overall, our work contributes to a better understanding of the fundamental limits of sampled Gabor phase retrieval.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-07-08T09:17:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "42C15", "94A12" ], "keywords": [ "sampled gabor phase retrieval", "dense set", "uniqueness", "counterexamples", "square-integrable signal" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
