The fundamentals of Spectral Tetris frame constructions

The landmark paper "Constructing tight fusion frames" by Casazza, Fickus, Mixon, Wang and Zhou introduced a fundamental method for constructing unit norm tight frames, which they called Spectral Tetris. This was a significant advancement for finite frame theory - especially constructions of finite frames. This paper then generated a vast amount of literature as Spectral Tetris was steadily developed, refined, and generalized until today we have a complete picture of what are the broad applications as well as the limitations of Spectral Tetris. In this paper, we will put this vast body of literature into a coherent theory.
