The coefficients of multiple Fourier series with respect to periodic muliplicative Price systems (Q1387378)

The author obtains a theorem of Hardy-Littlewood-Paley type for multiple Vilenkin systems (called Price systems by Russian mathematicians). Namely, given a sequence \({\mathbf a}:= \{a_{\vec k}\}_{\vec k\in\mathbb{N}^n}\), he identifies a weighted ``square function'' \(D({\mathbf a})_p\) such that if \(2\leq p<\infty\) and \(D({\mathbf a})\) converges, then there is an \(f\in L^p\) such that the Vilenkin-Fourier coefficients of \(f\) satisfy \(\widehat f={\mathbf a}\). He also estimates \(D(\widehat f)\) in terms of the \(L^p\) norm of \(f\) when \(1< p\leq 2\). He obtains sharper estimates when the Vilenkin systems are of bounded type. And, he shows, these results are best possible (in terms of order of growth).
