Abstract
We characterize the entire functions P of d variables, \(d\ge 2,\) for which the \({\mathbb Z}^d\)-translates of \(P\chi _{[0,N]^d}\) satisfy the partition of unity for some \(N\in \mathbb N.\) In contrast to the one-dimensional case, these entire functions are not necessarily periodic. In the case where P is a trigonometric polynomial, we characterize the maximal smoothness of \(P\chi _{[0,N]^d},\) as well as the function that achieves it. A number of especially attractive constructions are achieved, e.g., of trigonometric polynomials leading to any desired (finite) regularity for a fixed support size. As an application we obtain easy constructions of matrix-generated Gabor frames in \( L^2({\mathbb R}^d) ,\) with small support and high smoothness. By sampling this yields dual pairs of finite Gabor frames in \(\ell ^2({\mathbb Z}^d).\)
