Using known results on operator-valued Fourier multipliers on vector-valued function spaces, we give necessary or sufficient conditions for the well-posedness of the second order degenerate equations (P₂): d/dt (Mu’)(t) = Au(t) + f(t) (0 ≤ t ≤ 2π) with periodic boundary conditions u(0) = u(2π), (Mu’)(0) = (Mu’)(2π), in Lebesgue-Bochner spaces $L^p(,X)$, periodic Besov spaces $B_{p,q}^s(,X)$ and periodic Triebel-Lizorkin spaces $F_{p,q}^s(,X)$, where A and M are closed operators in a Banach space X satisfying D(A) ⊂ D(M)....

For 1 ≤ q < ∞, let ${}_q\left(\right)$ denote the Banach algebra consisting of the bounded complex-valued functions on the unit circle having uniformly bounded q-variation on the dyadic arcs. We describe a broad class ℐ of UMD spaces such that whenever X ∈ ℐ, the sequence space ℓ²(ℤ,X) admits the classes ${}_q\left(\right)$ as Fourier multipliers, for an appropriate range of values of q > 1 (the range of q depending on X). This multiplier result expands the vector-valued Marcinkiewicz Multiplier Theorem in the direction...

Let G be a locally compact group, let (φ,ψ) be a complementary pair of Young functions, and let $L^{\phi }\left(G\right)$ and $L^{\psi }\left(G\right)$ be the corresponding Orlicz spaces. Under some conditions on φ, we will show that for a Banach $L^{\phi }\left(G\right)$-submodule X of $L^{\psi }\left(G\right)$, the multiplier space $Ho{m}_{L^{\phi }\left(G\right)}(L^{\phi }\left(G\right),X*)$ is a dual Banach space with predual $L^{\phi }\left(G\right)\bullet X:=\overline{span}ux:u\in L^{\phi }\left(G\right),x\in X$, where the closure is taken in the dual space of $Ho{m}_{L^{\phi }\left(G\right)}(L^{\phi }\left(G\right),X*)$. We also prove that if $\phi$ is a Δ₂-regular N-function, then $C{v}_{\phi }\left(G\right)$, the space of convolutors of $M^{\phi }\left(G\right)$, is identified with the dual of a Banach algebra of functions on G...

Let be a locally compact abelian group and let 1 < p ≤ 2. ’ is the dual group of , and p’ the conjugate exponent of p. An operator T between Banach spaces X and Y is said to be compatible with the Fourier transform $F^{}$ if $F^{}\otimes T:L_p\left(\right)\otimes X\to L_{p^{\text{'}}}{(}^{\text{'}})\otimes Y$ admits a continuous extension $[F^{},T]:[L_p\left(\right),X]\to [L_{p^{\text{'}}}{(}^{\text{'}}),Y]$. Let $ℱT_p^{}$ denote the collection of such T’s. We show that $ℱT_p^{ℝ\times }=ℱT_p^{\mathbb{Z}\times }=ℱT_p^{\mathbb{Z}ⁿ\times }$ for any and positive integer n. Moreover, if the factor group of by its identity component is a direct sum of a torsion-free group and a finite group with discrete topology then...

Let $X$ be a Banach space of analytic functions on the open unit disk and $\Gamma$ a subset of linear isometries on $X$. Sufficient conditions are given for non-supercyclicity of $\Gamma$. In particular, we show that the semigroup of linear isometries on the spaces $S^p$ ($p>1$), the little Bloch space, and the group of surjective linear isometries on the big Bloch space are not supercyclic. Also, we observe that the groups of all surjective linear isometries on the Hardy space $H^p$ or the Bergman space $L_a^p$ ($1<p<\infty$, $p\ne 2$)...

Let $u$ be a holomorphic function and $\varphi$ a holomorphic self-map of the open unit disk $𝔻$ in the complex plane. We provide new characterizations for the boundedness of the weighted composition operators $u{C}_{\varphi }$ from Zygmund type spaces to Bloch type spaces in $𝔻$ in terms of $u$, $\varphi$, their derivatives, and ${\varphi }^n$, the $n$-th power of $\varphi$. Moreover, we obtain some similar estimates for the essential norms of the operators $u{C}_{\varphi }$, from which sufficient and necessary conditions of compactness of $u{C}_{\varphi }$ follows immediately. ...

We define a new type of multiplier operators on $L^p{(}^N)$, where ${}^N$ is the N-dimensional torus, and use tangent sequences from probability theory to prove that the operator norms of these multipliers are independent of the dimension N. Our construction is motivated by the conjugate function operator on $L^p{(}^N)$, to which the theorem applies as a particular example.

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 define a new function space $B$, which contains in particular BMO, BV, and $W^{1/p,p}$, $1<p<\infty$. We investigate its embedding into Lebesgue and Marcinkiewicz spaces. We present several inequalities involving $L^p$ norms of integer-valued functions in $B$. We introduce a significant closed subspace, $B_0$, of $B$, containing in particular VMO and $W^{1/p,p}$, $1\le p<\infty$. The above mentioned estimates imply in particular that integer-valued functions belonging to $B_0$ are necessarily constant. This framework provides a “common roof”...

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.

Let $f\in V_r\left(\right){\cup }_r\left(\right)$, where, for 1 ≤ r < ∞, $V_r\left(\right)$ (resp., ${}_r\left(\right)$) denotes the class of functions (resp., bounded functions) g: → ℂ such that g has bounded r-variation (resp., uniformly bounded r-variations) on (resp., on the dyadic arcs of ). In the author’s recent article [New York J. Math. 17 (2011)] it was shown that if is a super-reflexive space, and E(·): ℝ → () is the spectral decomposition of a trigonometrically well-bounded operator U ∈ (), then over a suitable non-void open interval of r-values,...

In this paper, we define the direct sum ${\left({⨁}_{i=1}^n{X}_i\right)}_{ce{s}_p}$ of Banach spaces X₁,X₂,..., and Xₙ and consider it equipped with the Cesàro p-norm when 1 ≤ p < ∞. We show that ${\left({⨁}_{i=1}^n{X}_i\right)}_{ce{s}_p}$ has the H-property if and only if each $X_i$ has the H-property, and ${\left({⨁}_{i=1}^n{X}_i\right)}_{ce{s}_p}$ has the Schur property if and only if each $X_i$ has the Schur property. Moreover, we also show that ${\left({⨁}_{i=1}^n{X}_i\right)}_{ce{s}_p}$ is rotund if and only if each $X_i$ is rotund.

Let 1 ≤ p < ∞, $={\left(Xₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of Banach spaces and $l_p\left(\right)$ the coresponding vector valued sequence space. Let $={\left(Xₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$, $={\left(Yₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be two sequences of Banach spaces, $={\left(Vₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$, Vₙ: Xₙ → Yₙ, a sequence of bounded linear operators and 1 ≤ p,q < ∞. We define the multiplication operator $M_{}:l_p\left(\right)\to l_q\left(\right)$ by $M_{}\left({\left(xₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}\right):={\left(Vₙ\left(xₙ\right)\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $M_{}$ to be 2-summing when (p,q) is one of the couples (1,2), (2,1), (2,2), (1,1), (p,1), (p,2), (2,p), (1,p), (p,q); in the last case 1 < p < 2, 1 < q < ∞. ...

We consider elementary operators $x\mapsto {\sum }_{j=1}^n{a}_{j}x{b}_j$, acting on a unital Banach algebra, where $a_j$ and $b_j$ are separately commuting families of generalized scalar elements. We give an ascent estimate and a lower bound estimate for such an operator. Additionally, we give a weak variant of the Fuglede-Putnam theorem for an elementary operator with strongly commuting families $a_j$ and $b_j$, i.e. $a_j=a_j^{\text{'}}+i{a}_j^{\text{'}\text{'}}$ ($b_j=b_j^{\text{'}}+i{b}_j^{\text{'}\text{'}}$), where all $a_j^{\text{'}}$ and $a_j^{\text{'}\text{'}}$ ($b_j^{\text{'}}$ and $b_j^{\text{'}\text{'}}$) commute. The main tool is an L¹ estimate of the Fourier transform of a certain class...

In this article we prove for $1<p<\infty$ the existence of the $L^p$-Helmholtz projection in finite cylinders $\Omega$. More precisely, $\Omega$ is considered to be given as the Cartesian product of a cube and a bounded domain $V$ having $C^1$-boundary. Adapting an approach of Farwig (2003), operator-valued Fourier series are used to solve a related partial periodic weak Neumann problem. By reflection techniques the weak Neumann problem in $\Omega$ is solved, which implies existence and a representation of the $L^p$-Helmholtz projection...

We study the order boundedness of composition operators induced by holomorphic self-maps of the open unit disc D. We consider these operators first on the Hardy spaces $H^p$ 0 < p < ∞ and then on the Nevanlinna class N. Given a non-negative increasing function h on [0,∞[, a composition operator is said to be X,Lh-order bounded (we write (X,Lh)-ob) with $X=H^p$ or X = N if its composition with the map f ↦ f*, where f* denotes the radial limit of f, is order bounded from X into $L_h$. We give...

We give new characterizations of the analytic Besov spaces $B_p$ on the unit ball $𝔹$ of ${ℂ}^n$ in terms of oscillations and integral means over some Euclidian balls contained in $𝔹$.

We prove that Bloch’s conjecture is true for surfaces with $p_g=0$ obtained as $0$-sets $X_{\sigma }$ of a section $\sigma$ of a very ample vector bundle on a variety $X$ with “trivial” Chow groups. We get a similar result in presence of a finite group action, showing that if a projector of the group acts as $0$ on holomorphic $2$-forms of $X_{\sigma }$, then it acts as $0$ on $0$-cycles of degree $0$ of $X_{\sigma }$. In higher dimension, we also prove a similar but conditional result showing that the generalized Hodge conjecture for general $X_{\sigma }$...

Let $L:=-\Delta +V$ be a Schrödinger operator on ${ℝ}^n$ with $n\ge 3$ and $V\ge 0$ satisfying ${\Delta }^{-1}V\in L^{\infty }\left({ℝ}^n\right)$. Assume that $\varphi :{ℝ}^n\times [0,\infty )\to [0,\infty )$ is a function such that $\varphi (x,·)$ is an Orlicz function, $\varphi (·,t)\in {𝔸}_{\infty }\left({ℝ}^n\right)$ (the class of uniformly Muckenhoupt weights). Let $w$ be an $L$-harmonic function on ${ℝ}^n$ with $0<C_1\le w\le C_2$, where $C_1$ and $C_2$ are positive constants. In this article, the author proves that the mapping $H_{\varphi ,L}\left({ℝ}^n\right)\ni f\mapsto wf\in H_{\varphi }\left({ℝ}^n\right)$ is an isomorphism from the Musielak-Orlicz-Hardy space associated with $L$, $H_{\varphi ,L}\left({ℝ}^n\right)$, to the Musielak-Orlicz-Hardy space $H_{\varphi }\left({ℝ}^n\right)$ under some assumptions on $\varphi$. As applications, the author further...

The work is dedicated to investigating a limiting procedure for extending “local” integral operator equalities to “global” ones in the sense explained below, and to applying it to obtaining generalizations of the Newton-Leibniz formula for operator-valued functions for a wide class of unbounded operators. The integral equalities considered have the form $g\left(R_F\right)\int f_x\left(R_F\right)d\mu \left(x\right)=h\left(R_F\right)$. (1) They involve functions of the kind $X\ni x\mapsto f_x\left(R_F\right)\in B\left(F\right)$, where X is a general locally compact space, F runs over a suitable class of Banach subspaces...
