Some spherical uniqueness theorems for multiple trigonometric series (Q1972067): Difference between revisions

The following uniqueness theorem is proved for the multiple trigonometric series \[ \sum_{k\in\mathbb Z^n}a_k e^{ikx},\tag{1} \] where the coefficients \(a_k\) are arbitrary complex numbers and \(kx=k_1x_1+ \cdots+k_nx_n.\) Denote \(|k|^2=k_1^2+\cdots+k_n^2.\) Theorem. Suppose that 1. the coefficients \(a_k\) satisfy \[ \sum_{R/2\leq|k|<R}|a_k|^2=o(R^2)\quad\text{as} \;R\to\infty;\tag{2} \] 2. \(f^*(x)\) and \(f_*(x),\) \(\limsup\) and \(\liminf\) of the Abel means of (1), respectively, are finite for all \(x;\) 3. \(\min\{\text{Re}f_*(x), \text{Im}f_*(x)\}\geq A(x)\in L^1(\mathbb T^n).\) Then \(f_*\in L^1(\mathbb T^n)\) and (1) is its Fourier series. This result and its consequences are generalizations of results of V. Shapiro and a recent result of J. Bourgain. Condition (2) is more general than that used by B. Connes for the multidimensional extension of the Cantor-Lebesgue theorem. For several dimensions, this range of problems is far from being complete, and the paper under review is an important step forward.
