Discrete characterizations of wave front sets of Fourier–Lebesgue and quasianalytic type.

We obtain discrete characterizations of wave front sets of Fourier–Lebesgue and quasianalytic type. It is shown that the microlocal properties of an ultradistribution can be obtained by sampling the Fourier transforms of its localizations over a lattice in R d . In particular, we prove the following discrete characterization of the analytic wave front set of a distribution f ∈ D ′ ( Ω ) . Let Λ be a lattice in R d and let U be an open convex neighborhood of the origin such that U ∩ Λ ⁎ = { 0 } . The analytic wave front set W F A ( f ) coincides with the complement in Ω × ( R d ∖ { 0 } ) of the set of points ( x 0 , ξ 0 ) for which there are an open neighborhood V ⊂ Ω ∩ ( x 0 + U ) of x 0 , an open conic neighborhood Γ of ξ 0 , and a bounded sequence ( f p ) p ∈ N in E ′ ( Ω ∩ ( x 0 + U ) ) with f p = f on V such that for some h > 0 sup μ ∈ Γ ∩ Λ ⁡ | f p ˆ ( μ ) | | μ | p ≤ h p + 1 p ! , ∀ p ∈ N .
