It is proved that the multi-dimensional maximal Fejér operator defined in a cone is bounded from the amalgam Hardy space $W(h_p,{\ell }_{\infty })$ to $W(L_p,{\ell }_{\infty })$. This implies the almost everywhere convergence of the Fejér means in a cone for all $f\in W(L₁,{\ell }_{\infty })$, which is larger than $L₁\left({ℝ}^d\right)$.

The main aim of this paper is to prove that the maximal operator $\sigma ₀*:=supₙ|{\sigma }_{n,n}|$ of the Fejér means of the double Vilenkin-Fourier series is not bounded from the Hardy space $H_{1/2}$ to the space weak-$L_{1/2}$.

We study the following nonlinear method of approximation by trigonometric polynomials. For a periodic function f we take as an approximant a trigonometric polynomial of the form $Gₘ\left(f\right):={\sum }_{k\in \Lambda }f̂\left(k\right)e^{i(k,x)}$, where $\Lambda \subset {\mathbb{Z}}^d$ is a set of cardinality m containing the indices of the m largest (in absolute value) Fourier coefficients f̂(k) of the function f. Note that Gₘ(f) gives the best m-term approximant in the L₂-norm, and therefore, for each f ∈ L₂, ||f-Gₘ(f)||₂ → 0 as m → ∞. It is known from previous results that in...

We first give a necessary and sufficient condition for $x^{-\gamma }\varphi \left(x\right)\in L^p$, 1 < p < ∞, 1/p - 1 < γ < 1/p, where ϕ(x) is the sum of either ${\sum }_{k=1}^{\infty }{a}_{k}coskx$ or ${\sum }_{k=1}^{\infty }{b}_{k}sinkx$, under the condition that λₙ (where λₙ is aₙ or bₙ respectively) belongs to the class of so called Mean Value Bounded Variation Sequences (MVBVS). Then we discuss the relations among the Fourier coefficients λₙ and the sum function ϕ(x) under the condition that λₙ ∈ MVBVS, and deduce a sharp estimate for the weighted modulus of continuity of ϕ(x)...

We investigate the behaviour of Fourier coefficients with respect to the system of ultraspherical polynomials. This leads us to the study of the “boundary” Lorentz space ${ℒ}_{\lambda }$ corresponding to the left endpoint of the mean convergence interval. The ultraspherical coefficients $c{ₙ}^{\left(\lambda \right)}\left(f\right)$ of ${ℒ}_{\lambda }$-functions turn out to behave like the Fourier coefficients of functions in the real Hardy space ReH¹. Namely, we prove that for any $f\in {ℒ}_{\lambda }$ the series ${\sum }_{n=1}^{\infty }c{ₙ}^{\left(\lambda \right)}\left(f\right)cosn\theta$ is the Fourier series of some function φ ∈ ReH¹ with ${\left|\right|\phi \left|\right|}_{ReH¹}{\le c\left|\right|f\left|\right|}_{{ℒ}_{\lambda }}$. ...

The main aim of this paper is to prove that the maximal operator ${\sigma }^{}$ is bounded from the Hardy space $H_{1/2}$ to weak-$L_{1/2}$ and is not bounded from $H_{1/2}$ to $L_{1/2}$.

We study the boundedness of the one-sided operator $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$ between the weighted spaces $L^p\left(M¯w\right)$ and $L^p\left(w\right)$ for every weight w. If λ = 2/p whenever 1 < p < 2, and in the case p = 1 for λ > 2, we prove the weak type of $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$. For every λ > 1 and p = 2, or λ > 2/p and 1 < p < 2, the boundedness of this operator is obtained. For p > 2 and λ > 1, we obtain the boundedness of $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$ from $L^p\left({\left(M¯\right)}^{[p/2]+1}w\right)$ to $L^p\left(w\right)$, where ${\left(M¯\right)}^k$ denotes the operator M¯ iterated k times.

Let $M_S$ denote the strong maximal operator. Let $M_x$ and $M_y$ denote the one-dimensional Hardy-Littlewood maximal operators in the horizontal and vertical directions in ℝ². A function h supported on the unit square Q = [0,1]×[0,1] is exhibited such that ${\int }_Q{M}_y{M}_{x}h<\infty$ but ${\int }_Q{M}_x{M}_{y}h=\infty$. It is shown that if f is a function supported on Q such that ${\int }_Q{M}_y{M}_{x}f<\infty$ but ${\int }_Q{M}_x{M}_{y}f=\infty$, then there exists a set A of finite measure in ℝ² such that ${\int }_A{M}_{S}f=\infty$.

The classical Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is bounded not only on the classical Lebesgue spaces $L_p\left({ℝ}^d\right)$ (in the case $p>1$), but (in the case when $1/p(·)$ is log-Hölder continuous and $p_{-}=inf\{p\left(x\right):x\in {ℝ}^d\}>1$) on the variable Lebesgue spaces $L_{p(·)}\left({ℝ}^d\right)$, too. Furthermore, the classical Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is of weak-type $(1,1)$. In the present note we generalize Besicovitch’s covering theorem for the so-called $\gamma$-rectangles. We introduce a general maximal operator $M_s^{\gamma ,\delta }$ and with the help of generalized $\Phi$-functions, the strong-...

The harmonic Cesàro operator is defined for a function f in $L^p\left(ℝ\right)$ for some 1 ≤ p < ∞ by setting $\left(f\right)\left(x\right):={\int }_x^{\infty }(f\left(u\right)/u)du$ for x > 0 and $\left(f\right)\left(x\right):=-{\int }_{-\infty }^x(f\left(u\right)/u)du$ for x < 0; the harmonic Copson operator ℂ* is defined for a function f in $L{¹}_{loc}\left(ℝ\right)$ by setting $*\left(f\right)\left(x\right):=(1/x){\int }^{x₀}f\left(u\right)du$ for x ≠ 0. The notation indicates that ℂ and ℂ* are adjoint operators in a certain sense. We present rigorous proofs of the following two commuting relations: (i) If $f\in L^p\left(ℝ\right)$ for some 1 ≤ p ≤ 2, then ${\left(\left(f\right)\right)}^{\wedge }\left(t\right)=*\left(f̂\right)\left(t\right)$ a.e., where f̂ denotes the Fourier transform of f. (ii) If $f\in L^p\left(ℝ\right)$ for some 1 < p ≤ 2, then...

A famous theorem of Carleson says that, given any function $f\in L^p\left(𝕋\right)$, $p\in (1,+\infty )$, its Fourier series $\left(S_{n}f\left(x\right)\right)$ converges for almost every $x\in 𝕋$. Beside this property, the series may diverge at some point, without exceeding $O\left(n^{1/p}\right)$. We define the divergence index at $x$ as the infimum of the positive real numbers $\beta$ such that $S_{n}f\left(x\right)=O\left(n^{\beta }\right)$ and we are interested in the size of the exceptional sets $E_{\beta }$, namely the sets of $x\in 𝕋$ with divergence index equal to $\beta$. We show that quasi-all functions in $L^p\left(𝕋\right)$ have a multifractal behavior with respect to...

Motivated by some recent results by Li and Stević, in this paper we prove that a two-parameter family of Cesàro averaging operators ${}^{b,c}$ is bounded on the Dirichlet spaces ${}_{p,a}$. We also give a short and direct proof of boundedness of ${}^{b,c}$ on the Hardy space $H^p$ for 1 < p < ∞.

Let $A_{\alpha }f\left(x\right)={\left|B\right(0,\left|x\right|\left)\right|}^{-\alpha /n}{\int }_{B(0,|x\left|\right)}f\left(t\right)dt$ be the n-dimensional fractional Hardy operator, where 0 < α ≤ n. It is well-known that $A_{\alpha }$ is bounded from $L^p$ to $L^{p_{\alpha }}$ with $p_{\alpha }=np/(\alpha p-np+n)$ when n(1-1/p) < α ≤ n. We improve this result within the framework of Banach function spaces, for instance, weighted Lebesgue spaces and Lorentz spaces. We in fact find a ’source’ space $S_{\alpha ,Y}$, which is strictly larger than X, and a ’target’ space $T_Y$, which is strictly smaller than Y, under the assumption that $A_{\alpha }$ is bounded from X into Y and the Hardy-Littlewood...

In this paper we study the regularity properties of the one-dimensional one-sided Hardy-Littlewood maximal operators ${ℳ}^{+}$ and ${ℳ}^{-}$. More precisely, we prove that ${ℳ}^{+}$ and ${ℳ}^{-}$ map $W^{1,p}\left(ℝ\right)\to W^{1,p}\left(ℝ\right)$ with $1<p<\infty$, boundedly and continuously. In addition, we show that the discrete versions $M^{+}$ and $M^{-}$ map $\mathrm{BV}\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)\to \mathrm{BV}\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)$ boundedly and map $l^1\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)\to \mathrm{BV}\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)$ continuously. Specially, we obtain the sharp variation inequalities of $M^{+}$ and $M^{-}$, that is, $$\mathrm{Var}\left(M^{+}\left(f\right)\right)\le \mathrm{Var}\left(f\right)\text{and}\mathrm{Var}\left(M^{-}\left(f\right)\right)\le \mathrm{Var}\left(f\right)$$ if $f\in \mathrm{BV}\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)$, where $\mathrm{Var}\left(f\right)$ is the total variation of $f$ on $\mathbb{Z}$ and $\mathrm{BV}\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)$ is the set of all functions $f:\mathbb{Z}\to ℝ$ satisfying $\mathrm{Var}\left(f\right)<\infty$.

Let $(X,d,\mu )$ be a metric measure space endowed with a distance $d$ and a nonnegative Borel doubling measure $\mu$. Let $L$ be a non-negative self-adjoint operator of order $m$ on $L^2\left(X\right)$. Assume that the semigroup ${\mathrm{e}}^{-tL}$ generated by $L$ satisfies the Davies-Gaffney estimate of order $m$ and $L$ satisfies the Plancherel type estimate. Let $H_L^p\left(X\right)$ be the Hardy space associated with $L.$ We show the boundedness of Stein’s square function ${𝒢}_{\delta }\left(L\right)$ arising from Bochner-Riesz means associated to $L$ from Hardy spaces $H_L^p\left(X\right)$ to $L^p\left(X\right)$, and also study...

For an injective map τ acting on the dyadic subintervals of the unit interval [0,1) we define the rearrangement operator $T_s$, 0 < s < 2, to be the linear extension of the map $\left(h_I\right)/{\left(\right|I|}^{1/s})\mapsto \left(h_{\tau \left(I\right)}\right)\left(\right|\tau \left(I\right){|}^{1/s})$, where $h_I$ denotes the $L^{\infty }$-normalized Haar function supported on the dyadic interval I. We prove the following extrapolation result: If there exists at least one 0 < s₀ < 2 such that $T_{s₀}$ is bounded on $H^{s₀}$, then for all 0 < s < 2 the operator $T_s$ is bounded on $H^s$.

Let $u$ be a weight on $(0,\infty )$. Assume that $u$ is continuous on $(0,\infty )$. Let the operator $S_u$ be given at measurable non-negative function $\varphi$ on $(0,\infty )$ by $$S_u\varphi \left(t\right)=\underset{0<\tau \le t}{sup}u\left(\tau \right)\varphi \left(\tau \right).$$ We characterize weights $v,w$ on $(0,\infty )$ for which there exists a positive constant $C$ such that the inequality $${\left({\int }_0^{\infty }{\left[S_u\varphi \left(t\right)\right]}^{q}w\left(t\right)dt\right)}^{\frac{1}{q}}\lesssim {\left({\int }_0^{\infty }{\left[\varphi \left(t\right)\right]}^{p}v\left(t\right)dt\right)}^{\frac{1}{p}}$$ holds for every $0<p,q<\infty$. Such inequalities have been used in the study of optimal Sobolev embeddings and boundedness of certain operators on classical Lorenz spaces.

We consider functions $u\in W_0^{m,1}\left(\Omega \right)$, where $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^N$ is a smooth bounded domain, and $m\ge 2$ is an integer. For all $j\ge 0,1\le k\le m-1$, such that $1\le j+k\le m$, we prove that $\frac{{\partial }^{i}u\left(x\right)}{d{\left(x\right)}^{m-j-k}}\in W_0^{k,1}\left(\Omega \right)$ with $∥{\partial }^k{\left(\frac{{\partial }^{i}u\left(x\right)}{d{\left(x\right)}^{m-j-k}}\right)}_{L^1\left(\Omega \right)}\le C∥u∥{}_{W^{m,1}\left(\Omega \right)}$, where $d$ is a smooth positive function which coincides with dist$(x,\partial \Omega )$ near $\partial \Omega$, and ${\partial }^l$ denotes any partial differential operator of order $l$.

Given 0 < p,q < ∞ and any sequence z = zₙ in the unit disc , we define an operator from functions on to sequences by $T_{z,p}\left(f\right)={(1-|zₙ\left|²\right)}^{1/p}f\left(zₙ\right)$. Necessary and sufficient conditions on zₙ are given such that $T_{z,p}$ maps the Hardy space $H^p$ boundedly into the sequence space ${\ell }^q$. A corresponding result for Bergman spaces is also stated.

Under mild conditions on the weight function K we characterize lacunary series in the so-called ${}_K$ spaces.

The aim of this paper is to introduce some new fixed point results of Hardy-Rogers-type for $\alpha$-$\eta$-$GF$-contraction in a complete metric space. We extend the concept of $F$-contraction into an $\alpha$-$\eta$-$GF$-contraction of Hardy-Rogers-type. An example has been constructed to demonstrate the novelty of our results.
