On the angles between certain arithmetically defined subspaces of 𝐂 n
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 37 (1987) no. 1, pp. 175-185

If {v i } and {w j } are two families of unitary bases for C n , and θ is a fixed number, let V n and W n be subspaces of C n spanned by [θ·n] vectors in {v i } and {w j } respectively. We study the angle between V n and W n as n goes to infinity. We show that when {v i } and {w j } arise in certain arithmetically defined families, the angles between V n and W n may either tend to 0 or be bounded away from zero, depending on the behavior of an associated eigenvalue problem.

Pour {v i } et {w j } deux familles de bases de C n , et θ un nombre fixe, nous considérons V n et W n deux sous-espaces engendrés par [θ·n] vecteurs de {v i } et {w j } respectivement. Nous étudions l’angle entre V n et W n quand n tend vers l’infini. Nous démontrons que, quand {v i } et {w j } sont présents dans certaines familles définies arithmétiquement, l’angle entre V n et W n peut soit tendre vers 0, soit être minoré par une constante strictement positive. Ce comportement dépend d’un problème de valeur propre associé.
