The purpose of this paper is to obtain a discrete version for the Hardy spaces $H^p\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)$ of the weak factorization results obtained for the real Hardy spaces $H^p\left(ℝⁿ\right)$ by Coifman, Rochberg and Weiss for p > n/(n+1), and by Miyachi for p ≤ n/(n+1). It represents an extension, in the one-dimensional case, of the corresponding result by A. Uchiyama who obtained a factorization theorem in the general context of spaces X of homogeneous type, but with some restrictions on the measure that exclude the case of points...

We extend the well known factorization theorems on the unit disk to product Hardy spaces, which generalizes the previous results obtained by Coifman, Rochberg and Weiss. The basic tools are the boundedness of a certain bilinear form on ℝ²₊ × ℝ²₊ and the characterization of BMO(ℝ²₊ × ℝ²₊) recently obtained by Ferguson, Lacey and Sadosky.

The two-dimensional classical Hardy spaces $H_p\left(ℝ\times ℝ\right)$ are introduced and it is shown that the maximal operator of the Fejér means of a tempered distribution is bounded from $H_p\left(ℝ\times ℝ\right)$ to $L_p\left({ℝ}^2\right)$ (1/2 < p ≤ ∞) and is of weak type $(H_1^{}\left(ℝ\times ℝ\right),L_1\left({ℝ}^2\right))$ where the Hardy space $H_1\left(ℝ\times ℝ\right)$ is defined by the hybrid maximal function. As a consequence we deduce that the Fejér means of a function f ∈ $H_1^{(}ℝ\times ℝ)$ ⊃ $LlogL\left({ℝ}^2\right)$ converge to f a.e. Moreover, we prove that the Fejér means are uniformly bounded on $H_p\left(ℝ\times ℝ\right)$ whenever 1/2 < p < ∞. Thus, in case f ∈ $H_p\left(ℝ\times ℝ\right)$, the Fejér means...

We give a complete characterization of the positive trigonometric polynomials $Q(\theta ,\varphi )$ on the bi-circle, which can be factored as $Q(\theta ,\varphi )=|p(e^{i\theta },e^{i\varphi }){|}^2$ where $p(z,w)$ is a polynomial nonzero for $\left|z\right|=1$ and $\left|w\right|\le 1$. The conditions are in terms of recurrence coefficients associated with the polynomials in lexicographical and reverse lexicographical ordering orthogonal with respect to the weight $\frac{1}{4{\pi }^{2}Q(\theta ,\varphi )}$ on the bi-circle. We use this result to describe how specific factorizations of weights on the bi-circle can be translated into identities relating...

We consider Boolean functions defined on the discrete cube $-\gamma ,{\gamma }^{-1}ⁿ$ equipped with a product probability measure ${\mu }^{\otimes n}$, where $\mu =\beta {\delta }_{-\gamma }+\alpha {\delta }_{{\gamma }^{-1}}$ and γ = √(α/β). This normalization ensures that the coordinate functions ${\left(x_i\right)}_{i=1,...,n}$ are orthonormal in $L₂(-\gamma ,{\gamma }^{-1}ⁿ,{\mu }^{\otimes n})$. We prove that if the spectrum of a Boolean function is concentrated on the first two Fourier levels, then the function is close to a certain function of one variable. Our theorem strengthens the non-symmetric FKN Theorem due to Jendrej, Oleszkiewicz and Wojtaszczyk. Moreover, in the symmetric...

The main topic of this paper is the study of compactly supported functions in a multi-resolution analysis and especially of the minimally supported ones. We will show that this class of functions is stable under differentiation and integration and how to compute basic quantities with them.
