Abstract We introduce a projective Riesz s-kernel for the unit sphere Sd−1 and investigate properties of N -point energy minimizing configurations for such a kernel. We show that these configurations, for s and N sufficiently large, form frames that are well-separated (have low coherence) and are nearly tight. Our results suggest an algorithm for computing well-separated tight frames which is illustrated with numerical examples.

1 Introduction A set of vectors X = {xi }i∈I is a frame1 for a separable Hilbert space H if there exist A, B > 0 such that for every x ∈ H , Ax2 ≤
|x, xi |2 ≤ Bx2 .
i∈I
The constant A (B, resp.) is called the lower (upper, resp.) frame bound. When A = B, X is called a tight frame, which generalizes the concept of an orthonormal basis in the sense that the recovery formula x = A1 i∈I x, xi xi holds for every x ∈ H . For the N is a frame of Hd finite dimensional space H = Hd , where H = R or C, X = {xi }i=1 N spans Hd . We shall also use X to denote the matrix whose ith if and only if {xi }i=1 column is xi and therefore we have X is tight with frame bound A ⇐⇒ X X ∗ = AId , where Id is the d × d identity matrix. N ⊂ Hd : x = 1} be the collection of all N -point Let S(d, N ) := {X = {xi }i=1 i d−1 configurations on S , the unit sphere of Hd , where · denotes the 2 norm. If we have a unit norm tight frame X ∈ S(d, N ), then it is well known that the frame bound has to be N /d since N X X ∗ = Id . (1.1) d Benedetto and Fickus show in [2] that frames that attain min

are precisely the unit norm tight frames. We will call the function |x, y|2 the frame potential kernel. Ehler and Okoudjou [23] generalized this result to the p-frame potential kernel |x, y| p , see also [5] for recent results on p-frames. Separation is a desirable property of a frame. It is quantified by the coherence ξ(X ) of a frame defined for X ∈ S(d, N ) by ξ(X ) := max |xi , x j |.
