Hardy Space - Hardy Spaces On The Unit Circle

Hardy Spaces On The Unit Circle

The Hardy spaces defined in the preceding section can also be viewed as certain closed vector subspaces of the complex Lp spaces on the unit circle. This connection is provided by the following theorem (Katznelson 1976, Thm 3.8): Given f ∈ Hp, with p > 0, the radial limit

$\tilde f\left(\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\theta}\right) = \lim_{r\to 1} f\left(r \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\theta}\right)$

exists for almost every θ. The function belongs to the Lp space for the unit circle, and one has that

Denoting the unit circle by T, and by Hp(T) the vector subspace of Lp(T) consisting of all limit functions, when f varies in Hp, one then has that for p ≥ 1,

(Katznelson 1976), where the ĝ(n) are the Fourier coefficients of a function g integrable on the unit circle,

$\forall n \in \mathbb{Z}, \ \ \ \hat{g}(n) = \frac{1}{2\pi}\int_0^{2\pi} g\left(\mathrm{e}^{i\phi}\right) \mathrm{e}^{-in\phi} \, \mathrm{d}\phi.$

The space Hp(T) is a closed subspace of Lp(T). Since Lp(T) is a Banach space (for 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞), so is Hp(T).

The above can be turned around. Given a function ∈ Lp(T), with p ≥ 1, one can regain a (harmonic) function f on the unit disk by means of the Poisson kernel P_r:

$f\left(r \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\theta}\right)= \frac{1}{2\pi} \int_0^{2\pi} P_r\left(\theta-\phi\right) \tilde f\left(\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\phi}\right) \, \mathrm{d}\phi, \ \ \ r < 1,$

and f belongs to Hp exactly when is in Hp(T). Supposing that is in Hp(T). i.e. that has Fourier coefficients (a_n)_{n ∈ Z} with a_n = 0 for every n < 0, then the element f of the Hardy space Hp associated to is the holomorphic function

In applications, those functions with vanishing negative Fourier coefficients are commonly interpreted as the causal solutions. Thus, the space H2 is seen to sit naturally inside L2 space, and is represented by infinite sequences indexed by N; whereas L2 consists of bi-infinite sequences indexed by Z.

Famous quotes containing the words hardy, spaces, unit and/or circle:

“The triumphs of peace have been in some proximity to war. Whilst the hand was still familiar with the sword-hilt, whilst the habits of the camp were still visible in the port and complexion of the gentleman, his intellectual power culminated; the compression and tension of these stern conditions is a training for the finest and softest arts, and can rarely be compensated in tranquil times, except by some analogous vigor drawn from occupations as hardy as war.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Every true man is a cause, a country, and an age; requires infinite spaces and numbers and time fully to accomplish his design;—and posterity seem to follow his steps as a train of clients.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“During the Suffragette revolt of 1913 I ... [urged] that what was needed was not the vote, but a constitutional amendment enacting that all representative bodies shall consist of women and men in equal numbers, whether elected or nominated or coopted or registered or picked up in the street like a coroner’s jury. In the case of elected bodies the only way of effecting this is by the Coupled Vote. The representative unit must not be a man or a woman but a man and a woman.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

“The passion of love is essentially selfish, while motherhood widens the circle of our feelings.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
