In this decomposition, dual frames have a key role. G-frames, introduced by Sun, cover many other recent generalizations of frames. In this paper, we give some characterizations of dual g-frames. Moreover, we prove that if two g-frames are close to each other, then we can find duals of them which are close to each other. Key words: Frame, dual frame, g-Riesz sequence, alternate dual, g-frame 1. Introduction and preliminaries Frames were first introduced by Duffin and Schaeffer [11]. Today they are a very useful tool in wavelet theory, signal processing and many other fields [4, 5, 6, 15]. The main feature of a frame is to represent every element of underlying Hilbert space as a linear combination of the frame elements. Specifically, if H is a separable Hilbert space and {fi }∞ i=1 is a frame for H , then any f ∈ H can be expressed as f = ∞ f, hi fi , i=1 ∞ 2 for some dual frame {hi }∞ i=1 of {fi }i=1 . A dual frame in which the coefficients f, hi has minimal l -norm for all f ∈ H is called the canonical dual. Unfortunately, computing the canonical dual is highly non-trivial in general. Moreover, the frame {fi }∞ i=1 might have a certain structure which is not shared by the canonical dual. This complication appears, for example, if {fi
