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 $L₁\left({ℝ}^d\right)$.

We prove and discuss some new $(H_p,L_p)$-type inequalities of weighted maximal operators of Vilenkin-Nörlund means with non-increasing coefficients $\{q_k:k\ge 0\}$. These results are the best possible in a special sense. As applications, some well-known as well as new results are pointed out in the theory of strong convergence of such Vilenkin-Nörlund means. To fulfil our main aims we also prove some new estimates of independent interest for the kernels of these summability results. In the special cases of...

Schmidt’s Tauberian theorem says that if a sequence (xk) of real numbers is slowly decreasing and $li{m}_{n\to \infty }(1/n){\sum }_{k=1}^n{x}_k=L$, then $li{m}_{k\to \infty }{x}_k=L$. The notion of slow decrease includes Hardy’s two-sided as well as Landau’s one-sided Tauberian conditions as special cases. We show that ordinary summability (C,1) can be replaced by the weaker assumption of statistical summability (C,1) in Schmidt’s theorem. Two recent theorems of Fridy and Khan are also corollaries of our Theorems 1 and 2. In the Appendix, we present a new proof...

The paper analyzes the influence on the meaning of natural growth in the gradient of a perturbation by a Hardy potential in some elliptic equations. Indeed, in the case of the Laplacian the natural problem becomes $-\Delta u-{\Lambda }_N\frac{u}{{\left|x\right|}^2}={\left|\nabla u+\frac{N-2}{2}\frac{u}{{\left|x\right|}^2}x\right|}^2{\left|x\right|}^{\left(N-2\right)/2}+\lambda f\left(x\right)$ in $\Omega$, $u=0$ on $\partial \Omega$, ${\Lambda }_N={(\left(N-2\right)/2)}^2$. This problem is a particular case of problem (2). Notice that $\left(N-2\right)/2$ is optimal as coefficient and exponent on the right hand side.

Inspired by a result from Leibov, we find that the supremum defining the $BLO$ norm in $[0,1]$ is actually attained by a specific sub-interval of $[0,1]$ for $f\in VLO([0,1])$

Denote by spanf₁,f₂,... the collection of all finite linear combinations of the functions f₁,f₂,... over ℝ. The principal result of the paper is the following. Theorem (Full Clarkson-Erdős-Schwartz Theorem). Suppose ${\left({\lambda }_j\right)}_{j=1}^{\infty }$ is a sequence of distinct positive numbers. Then $span1,x^{\lambda ₁},x^{\lambda ₂},...$ is dense in C[0,1] if and only if ${\sum }_{j=1}^{\infty }\left({\lambda }_j\right)/({\lambda }_j²+1)=\infty$. Moreover, if ${\sum }_{j=1}^{\infty }\left({\lambda }_j\right)/({\lambda }_j²+1)<\infty$, then every function from the C[0,1] closure of $span1,x^{\lambda ₁},x^{\lambda ₂},...$ can be represented as an analytic function on z ∈ ℂ ∖ (-∞, 0]: |z| < 1 restricted to (0,1). This result improves an...

Geometric structure of Cesàro function spaces $Ce{s}_p\left(I\right)$, where I = [0,1] and [0,∞), is investigated. Among other matters we present a description of their dual spaces, characterize the sets of all q ∈ [1,∞] such that $Ce{s}_p[0,1]$ contains isomorphic and complemented copies of $l_q$-spaces, show that Cesàro function spaces fail the fixed point property, give a description of subspaces generated by Rademacher functions in spaces $Ce{s}_p[0,1]$.

For each n ≥ 1, let $v_{n,k},k\ge 1$ and $u_{n,k},k\ge 1$ be mutually independent sequences of nonnegative random variables and let each of them consist of mutually independent and identically distributed random variables with means v̅ₙ and u̅̅ₙ, respectively. Let $X{ₙ}^B\left(t\right)=(1/cₙ){\sum }_{j=1}^{\left[nt\right]}(v_{n,j}-v̅ₙ)$, $X{ₙ}^A\left(t\right)=(1/cₙ){\sum }_{j=1}^{\left[nt\right]}(u_{n,j}-u̅̅ₙ)$, t ≥ 0, and $Xₙ=X{ₙ}^B-X{ₙ}^A$. The main result gives conditions under which the weak convergence $Xₙ\stackrel{}{\to }X$, where X is a Lévy process, implies $X{ₙ}^B\stackrel{}{\to }{X}^B$ and $X{ₙ}^A\stackrel{}{\to }{X}^A$, where $X^B$ and $X^A$ are mutually independent Lévy processes and $X=X^B-X^A$.

Let $X$ be a zero-dimensional space and $C_c\left(X\right)$ be the set of all continuous real valued functions on $X$ with countable image. In this article we denote by $C_c^K\left(X\right)$ (resp., $C_c^{\psi }\left(X\right))$ the set of all functions in $C_c\left(X\right)$ with compact (resp., pseudocompact) support. First, we observe that $C_c^K\left(X\right)=O_c^{{\beta }_{0}X\setminus X}$ (resp., $C_c^{\psi }\left(X\right)=M_c^{{\beta }_{0}X\setminus {\upsilon }_{0}X}$), where ${\beta }_{0}X$ is the Banaschewski compactification of $X$ and ${\upsilon }_{0}X$ is the $\mathbb{N}$-compactification of $X$. This implies that for an $\mathbb{N}$-compact space $X$, the intersection of all free maximal ideals in $C_c\left(X\right)$ is equal to $C_c^K\left(X\right)$, i.e., $M_c^{{\beta }_{0}X\setminus X}=C_c^K\left(X\right)$. By applying...

We consider the maximal function $\left|\right|\left(S^{a}f\right)\left[x\right]{\left|\right|}_{L^{\infty }[-1,1]}$ where $\left(S^{a}f\right){\left(t\right)}^{\wedge }\left(\xi \right)=e^{{it\left|\xi \right|}^a}f̂\left(\xi \right)$ and 0 < a < 1. We prove the global estimate $\left|\right|S^{a}f{\left|\right|}_{L²(ℝ,L^{\infty }[-1,1])}{\le C\left|\right|f\left|\right|}_{H^s\left(ℝ\right)}$, s > a/4, with C independent of f. This is known to be almost sharp with respect to the Sobolev regularity s.

We deal with the problem ⎧ -Δu = f(x,u) + λg(x,u), in Ω, ⎨ ($P_{\lambda }$) ⎩ $u_{\mid \partial \Omega }=0$ where Ω ⊂ ℝⁿ is a bounded domain, λ ∈ ℝ, and f,g: Ω×ℝ → ℝ are two Carathéodory functions with f(x,0) = g(x,0) = 0. Under suitable assumptions, we prove that there exists λ* > 0 such that, for each λ ∈ (0,λ*), problem ($P_{\lambda }$) admits a non-zero, non-negative strong solution $u_{\lambda }\in {\bigcap }_{p\ge 2}{W}^{2,p}\left(\Omega \right)$ such that $li{m}_{\lambda \to 0⁺}\left|\right|u_{\lambda }{\left|\right|}_{W^{2,p}\left(\Omega \right)}=0$ for all p ≥ 2. Moreover, the function $\lambda \mapsto I_{\lambda }\left(u_{\lambda }\right)$ is negative and decreasing in ]0,λ*[, where $I_{\lambda }$ is the energy functional related to ($P_{\lambda }$). ...

In this paper we prove the following theorems in incidence geometry. 1. There is $\delta >0$ such that for any $P_1,\cdots ,P_4$, and $Q_1,\cdots ,Q_n\in {ℂ}^2$, if there are $\le n^{(1+\delta )/2}$ many distinct lines between $P_i$ and $Q_j$ for all $i$, $j$, then $P_1,\cdots ,P_4$ are collinear. If the number of the distinct lines is $<c{n}^{1/2}$ then the cross ratio of the four points is algebraic. 2. Given $c>0$, there is $\delta >0$ such that for any $P_1,P_2,P_3\in {ℂ}^2$ noncollinear, and $Q_1,\cdots ,Q_n\in {ℂ}^2$, if there are $\le c{n}^{1/2}$ many distinct lines between $P_i$ and $Q_j$ for all $i$, $j$, then for any $P\in {ℂ}^2\setminus \{P_1,P_2,P_3\}$, we have $\delta n$ distinct lines between $P$ and $Q_j$. 3. Given...

In the present paper the author discusses certain multiple integrals $I(u)$ of the calculus of variations satisfying convexity conditions, and no growth property, and the corresponding Serrin integrals $\Im (u)$, to which the existence theorems in [3,4,5] do not apply. However, in the present paper, the integrals $I(u)$ and $\Im (u)$ are reduced to simpler form $H(v)$ and $\mathscr{H}(v)$ to which the existence theorems above apply. Thus, we derive that $I(u)\le \Im (u)$, $H(v)\le \mathscr{H}(v)$, we obtain the existence of the absolute minimum for the Serrin forms $\Im (u)$...
