Local Hardy spaces and summability of Fourier transforms

New Wiener amalgam spaces are introduced for local Hardy spaces. A general summability method, the so-called θ-summability is considered for multi-dimensional Fourier transforms. Under some conditions on θ, it is proved that the maximal operator of the θ-means is bounded from the amalgam space to W(L_p,ℓ_∞). This implies the almost everywhere convergence of the θ-means for all fW(L₁,ℓ_∞)L₁.
