Abstract

The Kadison-Singer problem asks: does every pure state on the diagonal sublgebra of the C*-algebra of bounded operators on a separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space admit a unique extension? A yes answer is equivalent to several open conjectures including Feichtinger's: every bounded frame is a finite union of Riesz sequences. We consider the special case: Feichtinger's conjecture for exponentials and prove that the set of projections onto a measurable subset of the circle group of the set of exponential functions equals a union of a finite number of Reisz sequences if and only if there exists a Reisz subsequence corresponding to integers whose characteristic function is a nonzero minimal sequence.
