Casazza %A Martin Ehler %A Shidong Li %J Mathematics %D 2013 %I arXiv %X First we show that tight nonorthogonal fusion frames a relatively easy to com by. In order to do this we need to establish a classification of how to to wire a self adjoint operator as a product of (nonorthogonal) projection operators. We also discuss the link between nonorthogonal fusion frames and positive operator valued measures, we define and study a nonorthogonal fusion frame potential, and we introduce the idea of random nonorthogonal fusion frames. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1309.0532v1
