We extend the results of paper of F.Móricz (2010), where necessary conditions were given for the L¹-convergence of double Fourier series. We also give necessary and sufficient conditions for the L¹-convergence under appropriate assumptions.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> integrability of trigonometric series with special varying coefficients

Very recently, Yu, Le and Zhou introduced the so called △B1^＊ and △B2^＊ conditions, which are generalizations of the monotone condition. By applying these two new conditions, the author essentially generalizes the classical results of Chen on the necessary and sufficient conditions of the Lp integrability of trigonometric series. In fact, the present paper gives the first result on the necessary and sufficient conditions of the Lp integrability of trigonometric series, where coefficients may have different signs.     

Remarks on the uniform and <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript>-convergence of trigonometric series

Chaundry and Jolliffe [1] proved that if a _k is a nonnegative sequence tending monotonically to zero, then a necessary and sufficient condition for the uniform convergence of the series Σ _k=1^∞ a _k sin kx is lim _k→∞ ka _k = 0. Lately, S. P. Zhou, P. Zhou and D. S. Yu [4] generalized this classical result. In this paper we propose new classes of sequences for which we get the extended version of their results. Moreover, we generalize the results of S. Tikhonov [2] on the L ¹-convergence of Fourier series.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript>-convergence of complex double fourier series

It is proved that the complex double Fourier series of an integrable functionf(x, y) with coefficients c_jk satisfying certain conditions, will converge in L¹-norm. The conditions used here are the combinations of Tauberian condition of Hardy-Karamata kind and its limiting case. This paper extends the result of Bray [1] to complex double Fourier series.

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>-rigidity in von Neumann algebras

We introduce the notion of L ²-rigidity for von Neumann algebras, a generalization of property (T) which can be viewed as an analogue for the vanishing of 1-cohomology into the left regular representation of a group. We show that L ²-rigidity passes to normalizers and is satisfied by nonamenable II₁ factors which are non-prime, have property Γ, or are weakly rigid. As a consequence we obtain that if M is a free product of diffuse von Neumann algebras, or if M=LΓ where Γ is a finitely generated group with β₁ ⁽²⁾(Γ)>0, then any nonamenable regular subfactor of M is prime and does not have properties Γ or (T). In particular this gives a new approach for showing solidity for a free group factor thus recovering a well known recent result of N. Ozawa.     

The Riemannian <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript> topology on the manifold of Riemannian metrics

We study the manifold of all Riemannian metrics over a closed, finite-dimensional manifold. In particular, we investigate the topology on the manifold of metrics induced by the distance function of the L ² Riemannian metric—so-called because it induces an L ² topology on each tangent space. It turns out that this topology on the tangent spaces gives rise to an L ¹-type topology on the manifold of metrics itself. We study this new topology and its completion, which agrees homeomorphically with the completion of the L ² metric. We also give a user-friendly criterion for convergence (with respect to the L ² metric) in the manifold of metrics.     

Rearrangement Invariant Continuous Linear Functionals on Weak <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript>

We show that in the dual of Weak L¹ the subspace of all rearrangement invariant continuous linear functionals is lattice isometric to a space L¹(μ) and is the linear hull of the maximal elements of the dual unit ball. We also show that the dual of Weak L¹ contains a norm closed weak* dense ideal which is lattice isometric to an ℓ¹-sum of spaces of type C(K). Helmut H. Schaefer in memoriam     

Universally <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript>-bad arithmetic sequences

We present a modified version of Buczolich and Mauldin’s proof that the sequence of square numbers is universally L ¹-bad. We extend this result to a large class of sequences, including the dth powers and the set of primes. Furthermore, we show that any subsequence of the averages taken along these sequences is also universally L ¹-bad.     

Eigensystem of an <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>-perturbed harmonic oscillator is an unconditional basis

For any complex valued L ^p -function b(x), 2 ≤ p < ∞, or L ^∞-function with the norm ‖b↾L ^∞‖ < 1, the spectrum of a perturbed harmonic oscillator operator L = −d ²/dx ² + x ² + b(x) in L ²(ℝ¹) is discrete and eventually simple. Its SEAF (system of eigen- and associated functions) is an unconditional basis in L ²(ℝ).     

Atomic hardy-type spaces between <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> on metric spaces with non-doubling measures

Let ( Y,d,dl )\left( {\mathcal{Y},d,d\lambda } \right) be (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, μ), where |·| is the Euclidean distance, μ is a nonnegative Radon measure on ℝ ⁿ satisfying the polynomial growth condition, or the Gauss measure metric space (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, d _λ ), or the space (S, d, ρ), where S ≡ ℝ ⁿ ⋉ ℝ⁺ is the (ax + b)-group, d is the left-invariant Riemannian metric and ρ is the right Haar measure on S with exponential growth. In this paper, the authors introduce and establish some properties of the atomic Hardy-type spaces { X_s ( Y ) }_{0 < s \leqslant ￥}\left\{ {X_s \left( \mathcal{Y} \right)} \right\}_{0 < s \leqslant \infty } and the BMO-type spaces { BMO( Y, s ) }_{0 < s \leqslant ￥}\left\{ {BMO\left( {\mathcal{Y}, s} \right)} \right\}_{0 < s \leqslant \infty }. Let H ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) be the known atomic Hardy space and L ₀¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) the subspace of f ∈ L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) with integral 0. The authors prove that the dual space of X _s ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) is BMO( Y,s )BMO\left( {\mathcal{Y},s} \right) when s ∈ (0,∞), X _s ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) = H ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) when s ∈ (0, 1], and X _∞ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) = L ₀¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) (or L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right)). As applications, the authors show that if T is a linear operator bounded from H ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) to L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) and from L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) to L ^1,∞ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right), then for all r ∈ (1,∞) and s ∈ (r,∞], T is bounded from X _r ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) to the Lorentz space L ^1,s ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right), which applies to the Calderón-Zygmund operator on (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, μ), the imaginary powers of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator on (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, d _γ ) and the spectral operator associated with the spectral multiplier on (S, d, ρ). All these results generalize the corresponding results of Sweezy, Abu-Shammala and Torchinsky on Euclidean spaces.     

Diffeomorphisms with <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>-shadowing property

We give a characterization of structurally stable diffeomorphisms by making use of the notion of L ^p -shadowing property. More precisely, we prove that the set of structurally stable diffeomorphisms coincides with the C ¹-interior of the set of diffeomorphisms having L ^p -shadowing property.

Littlewood–Paley theorem on spaces <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">t</Emphasis>)</Superscript>(ℝ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>)

We point out that if the Hardy–Littlewood maximal operator is bounded on the space L ^p(t)(ℝ), 1 < a ≤ p(t) ≤ b < ∞, t ∈ ℝ, then the well-known characterization of the spaces L ^p (ℝ), 1 < p < ∞, by the Littlewood–Paley theory extends to the space L ^p(t)(ℝ). We show that, for n > 1 , the Littlewood–Paley operator is bounded on L ^p(t) (ℝ ⁿ ), 1 < a ≤ p(t) ≤ b < ∞, t ∈ ℝ ⁿ , if and only if p(t) = const.

Special orthogonal splittings of<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Stack><Subscript>1</Subscript><Superscript>2<Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis></Superscript></Stack>

We show that for each positive integerk there is ak×k matrixB with ±1 entries such that puttingE to be the span of the rows of thek×2k matrix [√kI _k,B], thenE,E ^⊥ is a Kashin splitting: TheL ₁ ^2k and theL ₂ ^2k are universally equivalent on bothE andE ^⊥. Moreover, the probability that a random ±1 matrix satisfies the above is exponentially close to 1. Supported by the Israel Science Foundation.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> approximation capability of RBF neural networks

L ^p approximation capability of radial basis function (RBF) neural networks is investigated. If g: R ₊¹ → R ¹ and ∈ L _loc ^p (R ⁿ ) with 1 ≤ p < ∞, then the RBF neural networks with g as the activation function can approximate any given function in L ^p (K) with any accuracy for any compact set K in R ⁿ , if and only if g(x) is not an even polynomial.

Cyclic Functions in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>(<Emphasis Type="Bold">R</Emphasis>), 1 \le <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> < \infty

Functions whose translates span L ^p (R) are called L ^p-cyclic functions. For a fixed p \memb [1, \infty], we construct Schwartz-class functions which are L ^r -cyclic for r > p and not L ^r - cyclic for r \le p. We then construct Schwartz-class functions which are L ^r -cyclic for r \ge p and not L ^r -cyclic for r < p. The constructions differ for p \memb (1, 2) and p > 2.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>-Betti numbers of one-relator groups

We determine the L ²-Betti numbers of all one-relator groups and all surface-plus-one-relation groups. We also obtain some information about the L ²-cohomology of left-orderable groups, and deduce the non-L ² result that, in any left-orderable group of homological dimension one, all two-generator subgroups are free.
