Partial sums, first negative results, the trigonometric system

It is of main interest in the theory of trigonometric Fourier series that how to reconstruct the function from the partial sums of its Fourier series. Du Bois-Reymond (1876, Abhand. Akad. M¨ unchen) the Fourier series of a continuous function can unboundedly diverge at some point. Kolmogoroff (1923, Fund. Math.) constructed an example of a function f ∈ L1(T) such that the partial sums Smf (x) diverges unboundedly almost everywhere. Kolmogoroff (1926, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris) there exists an integrable function with everywhere divergent Fourier series.

Partial sums, positive results, the trigonometric system

Carleson (1966, Acta Math.) f ∈ L2(T), then Snf → f almost everywhere. Hunt (1968, University Press, Carbondale, Ill.) f ∈ Lp(p > 1)

  • impl. a.e. conv.

Antonov (1996, East J. Approx.) f ∈ L log+ L log+ log+ log+ L, (

  • |f | log+ |f | log+ log+ log+ |f | < ∞) then the partial sums

converge to the function almost everywhere again.

The trigonometric system

What if we have only a subsequence of the partial sums? With respect to the partial sums and the Lebesgue space L1 bad news... Totik (1982, Publicationes Mathematicae-Debrecen): for each subsequence (nj) of the sequence of natural numbers there exists an integrable function f such that supj |Snjf | = +∞

  • everywhere. Moreover,

Konyagin (2005, Proc. Steklov Inst. Math. Suppl.): for any increasing sequence (nj) of positive integers and any nondecreasing function φ : [0, +∞) → [0, +∞) satisfying condition φ(u) = o(u log log u), there is a function f ∈ φ(L) such that supj |Snjf | = +∞ everywhere. Special subsequences?

Lacunary partial sums, the endpoint theorems, trigonometric system

Di Plinio (2014, Collect. Math.) for (nj) lacunary and f ∈ L1 log+ log+ L log+ log+ log+ log+ L we have Snjf → f a.e. Victor Lie (2017, to appear in European Math. Journal) for any (nj) lacunary and φ(u) = o(u log+ log+ u log+ log+ log+ log+ u), there exists a f ∈ φ(L) such that supj |Snjf | = +∞ everywhere. What about the L1 case? Some summation method is needed.

Zygmunt Zalcwasser’s problem, trigonometric system

In 1936 Zalcwasser (1936, Stud. Math.) asked how fast can the sequence of integers (nj) grow that it still holds: 1 N

N

  • j=1

Snjf → f a.e. for every function f ∈ L1. This problem with respect to the trigonometric system was completely solved for continuous functions and uniform convergence: Salem, (1955, Am. J. Math.): If the sequence (nj) is convex, then the condition supj j−1/2 log nj < +∞ is necessary and sufficient for the uniform convergence for every continuous function.

The trigonometric system

With respect to convergence almost everywhere, and integrable functions the situation is more complicated. In 1936 Zalcwasser (1936, Stud. Math.) proved the a.e. relation 1

N

N

j=1 Sj2f → f for each integrable function f .

Salem, (1955, Am. J. Math.) writes that this theorem of Zalcwasser is extended to j3 and j4. Belinsky proved (1997, Proc. Am. Math. Soc.) the existence

  • f a sequence nj ∼ exp( 3

√j) such that the relation

1 N

N

j=1 Snjf → f holds a.e. for every integrable function.

Belinsky also conjectured that if the sequence (nj) is convex, then the condition supj j−1/2 log nj < +∞ is necessary and sufficient again. So, that would be the answer for the problem

The main tool, Zalcwasser’s problem

  • Remark. Of course, without σmj1Fj this inequlity does not hold for

all f ∈ L1. However, the mes. of Fj is ”small”, the mes. of Fj is ”big” and σmj1Fj is close to 1 on a ”big” set.

Conjecture: The theorem above concerning the Riesz log. means and trig. sys. holds. Problems: What about (C, 1) means of (Snjf ) with resp. the Walsh-Kaczmarz system. Nothing is known yet. Norm convergence of (C, 1) means of (Snjf ) with resp. the Walsh-Paley, Walsh-Kaczmarz system. Not complete characterization. Two or more dimensional situation?
