“…The properties of the prolate spheroidal wave functions have been extensively treated in the literature. 13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20 The analysis of the inversion (superresolution) problem can be carried out using the properties of the prolate spheroidal wave functions without explicit use of the fact that the defining operator is compact, self-adjoint, etc. Since the prolate spheroidal wave functions are complete in the interval I , property 2), we can expand the input as…”
