Real-variable Techniques On The Unit Circle
Real-variable techniques, mainly associated to the study of real Hardy spaces defined on Rn (see below), are also used in the simpler framework of the circle. It is a common practice to allow for complex functions (or distributions) in these "real" spaces. The definition that follows does not distinguish between real or complex case.
Let Pr denote the Poisson kernel on the unit circle T. For a distribution f on the unit circle, set
where the star indicates convolution between the distribution f and the function ei θ → Pr(θ) on the circle. Namely, (f ∗ Pr)(ei θ) is the result of the action of f on the C∞-function defined on the unit circle by
For 0 < p < ∞, the real Hardy space Hp(T) consists of distributions f such that M f is in Lp(T).
The function F defined on the unit disk by F(r ei θ) = (f ∗ Pr)(ei θ) is harmonic, and M f is the radial maximal function of F. When M f belongs to Lp(T) and p ≥ 1, the distribution f "is" a function in Lp(T), namely the boundary value of F. For p ≥ 1, the real Hardy space Hp(T) is a subset of Lp(T).

Famous quotes containing the words techniques, unit and/or circle:
“The techniques of opening conversation are universal. I knew long ago and rediscovered that the best way to attract attention, help, and conversation is to be lost. A man who seeing his mother starving to death on a path kicks her in the stomach to clear the way, will cheerfully devote several hours of his time giving wrong directions to a total stranger who claims to be lost.”
—John Steinbeck (1902–1968)
“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)
“A beauty is not suddenly in a circle. It comes with rapture. A great deal of beauty is rapture. A circle is a necessity. Otherwise you would see no one. We each have our circle.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
