Gudrun met the USA-based mathematician Roza Aceska from Macedonia in Turin at the Conference MicroLocal and Time-Frequency Analysis 2018. The topic of the recorded conversation is dynamical sampling. The situation which Roza and other mathematician study is: There is a process which develops over time which in principle is well understood. In mathematical terms this means we know the equation which governs our model of the process or in other words we know the family of evolution operators. Often this is a partial differential equation which accounts for changes in time and in 1, 2 or 3 spatial variables. This means, if we know the initial situation (i.e. the initial conditions in mathematical terms), we can numerically calculate good approximations for the instances the process will have at all places and at all times in the future. But in general when observing a process life is not that well sorted. Instead we might know the principal equation but only through (maybe only a few) measurements we can find
