Exponential Riesz bases in non-Archimedean locally compact Abelian groups

TL;DR
This work extends the spectral theory of exponential Riesz bases to non-Archimedean l.c.a. groups, proving that any compact open set Ω has a Riesz basis of exponentials E(Λ) in L^2(Ω) and that there exist bounded open sets for which no exponential Riesz basis exists. The authors develop a two-pronged approach: first, a p-adic constructive method using finite-discrete reductions and a Λ = D + L_γ decomposition to obtain Riesz bases for compact open sets; second, a nonexistence framework based on translation numbers and a localization argument that yields explicit counterexamples in Q_p and in general non-Archimedean l.c.a. groups. The results highlight the delicate interplay between group structure, open subgroups, and spectral bases in non-Archimedean harmonic analysis, and they open paths for further exploration of multi-tiling and Riesz-basis questions in higher-dimensional p-adic contexts.
Abstract
This paper establishes two fundamental results on the existence of exponential Riesz basis in non-Archimedean locally compact Abelian groups: the existence of Riesz basis of exponentials for all finite unions of balls and the non-existence of such basis for some bounded sets.
