چکیده

We investigate properties of subspaces of L2 spanned by subsets of a finite orthonormal system bounded in the L∞ norm. We first prove that there exists an arbitrarily large subset of this orthonormal system on which the L1 and the L2 norms are close, up to a logarithmic factor. Considering for example the Walsh system, we deduce the existence of two orthogonal subspaces of L2 , complementary to each other and each of dimension roughly n/2, spanned by ±1 vectors (i.e. Kashin’s splitting) and in logarithmic distance to the Euclidean space. The same method applies for p > 2, and, in connection with the Λp problem (solved by Bourgain), we study large subsets of this orthonormal system on which the L2 and the Lp norms are close (again, up to a logarithmic factor). 0 Introduction In this note we consider a space L2 of functions on a probability space and we investigate properties of its subspaces spanned by a finite subset of an orthonormal system which consists of functions bounded in L∞. Typical examples of such systems are the trigonometric and the Walsh systems. The question we study is whether there is a subspace spanned by a large subset of the orthonormal system on which the L2 and Lp norms are close. The two cases we focus on are when p > 2 and p = 1. Formally we address 2000 MSC-classification: 46B07, 41A45, 94B75, 52B05, 62G99 Partially supported by an Australian Research Council Discovery grant.

Shift Invariant Spaces and Shift Preserving Operators on Locally Compact Abelian Groups

We investigate shift invariant subspaces of $L^2(G)$, where $G$ is a locally compact abelian group. We show that every shift invariant space can be decomposed as an orthogonal sum of spaces each of which is generated by a single function whose shifts form a Parseval frame. For a second countable locally compact abelian group $G$ we prove a useful Hilbert space isomorphism, introduce range funct...

Solving singular integral equations by using orthogonal polynomials

In this paper, a special technique is studied by using the orthogonal Chebyshev polynomials to get approximate solutions for singular and hyper-singular integral equations of the first kind. A singular integral equation is converted to a system of algebraic equations based on using special properties of Chebyshev series. The error bounds are also stated for the regular part of approximate solut...

A Note on the Structure of Affine Subspaces of

This paper investigates the structure of general affine subspaces of ( )  L . For a d × d expansive matrix A, it shows that every affine subspace can be decomposed as an orthogonal sum of spaces each of which is generated by dilating some shift invariant space in this affine subspace, and every non-zero and non-reducing affine subspace is the orthogonal direct sum of a reducing subspace and a ...
