Blind inverse problems with isolated spikes

Assume that an unknown integral operator living in some known subspace is observed indirectly, by evaluating its action on a discrete measure containing a few isolated Dirac masses at an unknown location. Is this information enough to recover the impulse response location and the operator with a sub-pixel accuracy? We study this question and bring to light key geometrical quantities for exact and stable recovery. We also propose an in-depth study of the presence of additive white Gaussian noise. We illustrate the well-foundedness of this theory on the challenging optical imaging problem of blind deconvolution and blind deblurring with non-stationary operators.
