Carleson's Theorem from 1965 states that the partial Fourier sums of a square integrable function converge pointwise. We prove an equivalent statement on the real line, following the method developed by the author and C. Thiele. This theorem, and the proof presented, is at the center of an emerging theory which complements the statement and proof of Carleson's theorem. An outline of these variations is also given.
We consider convergence of thresholding type approximations with regard to general complete minimal systems eₙ in a quasi-Banach space X. Thresholding approximations are defined as follows. Let eₙ* ⊂ X* be the conjugate (dual) system to eₙ; then define for ε > 0 and x ∈ X the thresholding approximations as , where . We study a generalized version of that we call the weak thresholding approximation. We modify the in the following way. For ε > 0, t ∈ (0,1) we set and consider the weak...
We establish a connection between the L² norm of sums of dilated functions whose jth Fourier coefficients are for some α ∈ (1/2,1), and the spectral norms of certain greatest common divisor (GCD) matrices. Utilizing recent bounds for these spectral norms, we obtain sharp conditions for the convergence in L² and for the almost everywhere convergence of series of dilated functions.
