Characterizations of Hankel multipliers

We give characterizations of radial Fourier multipliers as acting on radial L^p-functions, 1<p<2d/(d+1), in terms of Lebesgue space norms for Fourier localized pieces of the convolution kernel. This is a special case of corresponding results for general Hankel multipliers. Besides L^p-L^q bounds we also characterize weak type inequalities and intermediate inequalities involving Lorentz spaces. Applications include results on interpolation of multiplier spaces.Comment: Final revised version to appear in Mathematische Annale

Wavelet frames, Bergman spaces and Fourier transforms of Laguerre functions

The Fourier transforms of Laguerre functions play the same canonical role in wavelet analysis as do the Hermite functions in Gabor analysis. We will use them as analyzing wavelets in a similar way the Hermite functions were recently by K. Groechenig and Y. Lyubarskii in "Gabor frames with Hermite functions, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser. I 344 157-162 (2007)". Building on the work of K. Seip, "Beurling type density theorems in the unit disc, Invent. Math., 113, 21-39 (1993)", concerning sampling sequences on weighted Bergman spaces, we find a sufficient density condition for constructing frames by translations and dilations of the Fourier transform of the nth Laguerre function. As in Groechenig-Lyubarskii theorem, the density increases with n, and in the special case of the hyperbolic lattice in the upper half plane it is given by b\log a<\frac{4\pi}{2n+\alpha}, where alpha is the parameter of the Laguerre function.Comment: 15 page

Potential operators associated with Jacobi and Fourier-Bessel expansions

We study potential operators (Riesz and Bessel potentials) associated with classical Jacobi and Fourier-Bessel expansions. We prove sharp estimates for the corresponding potential kernels. Then we characterize those $1 \le p,q \le \infty$, for which the potential operators are of strong type $(p,q)$, of weak type $(p,q)$ and of restricted weak type $(p,q)$. These results may be thought of as analogues of the celebrated Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev fractional integration theorem in the Jacobi and Fourier-Bessel settings. As an ingredient of our line of reasoning, we also obtain sharp estimates of the Poisson kernel related to Fourier-Bessel expansions.Comment: 28 pages, 4 figures; v2 (some comments on Bessel potentials added

On the inverse scattering problem for Jacobi matrices with the spectrum on an interval, a finite system of intervals or a Cantor set of positive length

Solving inverse scattering problem for a discrete Sturm-Liouville operator with the fast decreasing potential one gets reflection coefficients $s_\pm$ and invertible operators $I+H_{s_\pm}$, where $H_{s_\pm}$ is the Hankel operator related to the symbol $s_\pm$. The Marchenko-Fadeev theorem (in the continuous case) and the Guseinov theorem (in the discrete case), guarantees the uniqueness of solution of the inverse scattering problem. In this article we asks the following natural question --- can one find a precise condition guaranteeing that the inverse scattering problem is uniquely solvable and that operators $I+H_{s_\pm}$ are invertible? Can one claim that uniqueness implies invertibility or vise versa? Moreover we are interested here not only in the case of decreasing potential but also in the case of asymptotically almost periodic potentials. So we merege here two mostly developed cases of inverse problem for Sturm-Liouville operators: the inverse problem with (almost) periodic potential and the inverse problem with the fast decreasing potential.Comment: 38 pages, AMS-Te

Riesz transforms on compact Riemannian symmetric spaces of rank one

In this paper we prove mixed norm estimates for Riesz transforms related to Laplace--Beltrami operators on compact Riemannian symmetric spaces of rank one. These operators are closely related to the Riesz transforms for Jacobi polynomials expansions. The key point is to obtain sharp estimates for the kernel of the Jacobi--Riesz transforms with uniform control on the parameters, together with an adaptation of Rubio de Francia's extrapolation theorem. The latter results are of independent interest.Comment: 19 pages. To appear in Milan Journal of Mathematic
