Some recent results on spline-Fourier and Ciesielski-Fourier series are summarized. The convergence of spline Fourier series and the basis properties of the spline systems are considered. Some classical topics, that are well known for trigonometric and Walsh-Fourier series, are investigated for Ciesielski-Fourier series, such as inequalities for the Fourier coefficients, convergence a.e. and in norm, Fejér and θ-summability, strong summability and multipliers. The connection between Fourier series...

Elementary estimates for the Riesz kernel and for its derivative are given. Using these we show that the maximal operator of the Riesz means of a tempered distribution is bounded from $H_p\left(ℝ\right)$ to $L_p\left(ℝ\right)$ (1/(α+1) < p < ∞) and is of weak type (1,1), where $H_p\left(ℝ\right)$ is the classical Hardy space. As a consequence we deduce that the Riesz means of a function $⨍\in L_1\left(ℝ\right)$ converge a.e. to ⨍. Moreover, we prove that the Riesz means are uniformly bounded on $H_p\left(ℝ\right)$ whenever 1/(α+1) < p < ∞. Thus, in case $⨍\in H_p\left(ℝ\right)$, the Riesz means converge...
