On Jodeit’s multiplier extension theorems

Let Δ(x) = max {1 - ¦x¦, 0} for all x ∈ ?, and let ξ_[0,1) be the characteristic function of the interval 0 ≤x < 1. Two seminal theorems of M. Jodeit assert that A and ξ_[0,1) act as summability kernels convertingp-multipliers for Fourier series to multipliers forL ^P (?). The summability process corresponding to Δ extendsL ^P (T)-multipliers from ? to ? by linearity over the intervals [n, n + 1],n ∈ ?, when 1 ≤p < ∞, while the summability process corresponding to ξ_[0,1) extends L^P(T)-multipliers by constancy on the intervals [n, n + 1),n ∈ ?, when 1 <p < ∞. We describe how both these results have the following complete generalization: for 1 ≤p < ∞, an arbitrary compactly supported multiplier forL ^P (?) will act as a summability kernel forL ^P (T)-multipliers, transferring maximal estimates from L^P(T) to L^P(?). In particular, specialization of this maximal theorem to Jodeit’s summability kernel ξ_{[0, 1)} provides a quick structural way to recover the fact that the maximal partial sum operator on L^P(?), 1 <p < ∞, inherits strong type (p,p)-boundedness from the Carleson-Hunt Theorem for Fourier series. Another result of Jodeit treats summability kernels lacking compact support, and we show that this aspect of multiplier theory sets up a lively interplay with entire functions of exponential type and sampling methods for band limited distributions.
