Consider a trigonometric polynomial f of degree N, and associate to it the polynomial F in which each coefficient of f is replaced by its absolute value. F is called the majorant of f. We show that the L^3 norm of f can be larger than that…
We precisely evaluate the operator norm of the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function on $L^p(\Bbb R^1)$. We also compute the operator norm of the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function over rectangles on $L^p(\Bbb R^n)$, and we…
Denote the coefficients in the complex form of the Fourier series of a function $f$ on the interval $[-\pi, \pi)$ by $\hat f(n)$. It is known that if $p = 2j/(2j-1)$ for some integer $j>0$, then for each function $f$ in $L^p$ there exists…
In a recent short note the first author gave the first positive result on the higher order regularity of the discrete noncentered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function. In this article we conduct a thorough investigation of possible similar…
The Hardy-Littlewood majorant problem has a positive answer only for expo- nents p which are even integers, while there are counterexamples for all p =2 2N. Montgomery conjectured that there exist counterexamples even among idempotent…
We study a variant of the majorization relation. In particular we consider inequalities involving some Schur-concave symmetric polynomials related to the multinomial expansion. We also discuss how these topics were motivated by conjectures…
A known Hardy-Littlewood theorem asserts that if both the function and its conjugate are of bounded variation, then their Fourier series are absolutely convergent. It is proved in the paper that the same result holds true for functions on…
We consider the spaces $A_p(\mathbb T)$ of functions $f$ on the circle $\mathbb T$ such that the sequence of Fourier coefficients $\fu{\f}=\{\fu{\f}(k), ~k \in \mathbb Z\}$ belongs to $l^p, ~1\leq p<2$. The norm on $A_p(\mathbb T)$ is…
The Hardy-Littlewood majorant problem was raised in the 30's and it can be formulated as the question whether $\int |f|^p\ge \int|g|^p$ whenever $\hat{f}\ge|\hat g|$. It has a positive answer only for exponents $p$ which are even integers.…
In this article we study two fundamental problems on exponential sums via randomization of frequencies with stochastic processes. These are the Hardy-Littlewood majorant problem, and $L^{2n}(\mathbb{T}), \ n\in \mathbb{N}$ norms of…
We study harmonic functions which admit a certain majorant in the unit ball in $\R^m $. We prove that when the majorant fulfills a doubling condition, the extremal growth or decay may occur only along small sets of radii, and we give…
The best constant in the usual Lp norm inequality for the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function on R1 is obtained for the class of all ``peak-shaped'' functions. A positive function on the line is called ``peak-shaped'' if it is…
The Hardy-Littlewood inequality on $\mathbb{T}$ compares the $L^p$-norm of a function with a weighted $\ell^p$-norm of its Fourier coefficients. The approach has recently been studied for compact homogeneous spaces and we study a natural…
The aim of this paper is to exhibit a wide class of sparse deterministic sets, $\mathbf B \subseteq \mathbb{N}$, so that \[ \limsup_{N \to \infty} N^{-1}|\mathbf B \cap [1,N]|= 0, \] for which the Hardy--Littlewood majorant property holds:…
We show that if A is a subset of Z/pZ (p a prime) of density bounded away from 0 and 1 then the A(Z/pZ)-norm (that is the l^1-norm of the Fourier transform) of the characterstic function of A is bounded below by an absolute constant times…
Let $T$ be a strongly Kreiss bounded linear operator on $L^p$. We obtain a bound on the rate of growth of the norms of the powers of $T$. The bound is optimal with respect to the polynomial scale. The proof makes use of Fourier multipliers,…
We prove the Hardy-Littlewood theorem in two dimensions for functions whose Fourier coefficients obey general monotonicity conditions and, importantly, are not necessarily positive. The sharpness of the result is given by a counterexample,…
The Hardy-Littlewood majorant problem has a positive answer only for expo- nents p which are even integers, while there are counterexamples for all p =2 2N. Montgomery conjectured that even among the idempotent polynomials there must exist…
We show that the boundedness of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator on a K\"othe function space ${\mathbb{X}}$ and on its K\"othe dual ${\mathbb{X}}'$ is equivalent to the well-posedness of the $\mathbb{X}$-Dirichlet and…
