Wavelet frame bijectivity on Lebesgue and Hardy spaces

We prove a sufficient condition for frame-type wavelet series in $L^p$, the Hardy space $H^1$, and BMO. For example, functions in these spaces are shown to have expansions in terms of the Mexican hat wavelet, thus giving a strong answer to an old question of Meyer. Bijectivity of the wavelet frame operator acting on Hardy space is established with the help of new frequency-domain estimates on the Calder\'on-Zygmund constants of the frame kernel.Comment: 23 pages, 7 figure

Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund inequalities

We study a generalization of the classical Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund inequalities. We relate this problem to the sampling sequences in the Paley-Wiener space and by using this analogy we give sharp necessary and sufficient computable conditions for a family of points to satisfy the Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund inequalities

An application of the effective Sato-Tate conjecture

Based on the Lagarias-Odlyzko effectivization of the Chebotarev density theorem, Kumar Murty gave an effective version of the Sato-Tate conjecture for an elliptic curve conditional on analytic continuation and Riemann hypothesis for the symmetric power $L$-functions. We use Murty's analysis to give a similar conditional effectivization of the generalized Sato-Tate conjecture for an arbitrary motive. As an application, we give a conditional upper bound of the form $O((\log N)^2 (\log \log 2N)^2)$ for the smallest prime at which two given rational elliptic curves with conductor at most $N$ have Frobenius traces of opposite sign.Comment: 12 pages; v2: refereed versio

Oscillation and the mean ergodic theorem for uniformly convex Banach spaces

Let B be a p-uniformly convex Banach space, with p >= 2. Let T be a linear operator on B, and let A_n x denote the ergodic average (1 / n) sum_{i< n} T^n x. We prove the following variational inequality in the case where T is power bounded from above and below: for any increasing sequence (t_k)_{k in N} of natural numbers we have sum_k || A_{t_{k+1}} x - A_{t_k} x ||^p <= C || x ||^p, where the constant C depends only on p and the modulus of uniform convexity. For T a nonexpansive operator, we obtain a weaker bound on the number of epsilon-fluctuations in the sequence. We clarify the relationship between bounds on the number of epsilon-fluctuations in a sequence and bounds on the rate of metastability, and provide lower bounds on the rate of metastability that show that our main result is sharp
