Generalized tight p-frames and spectral bounds for Laplace-like operators

To achieve our goals we generalize tight p-fusion frames, to extract the best possible geometric results for domains with isometry groups admitting tight p-frames. Any such group generates a tight p-fusion frame via conjugations of a fixed projection matrix. We show that generalized tight p-frames can also be obtained by conjugations of an arbitrary rectangular matrix, with the frame constant depending on the singular values of the matrix.
