\(L^{\infty }\) to \(L^p\) constants for Riesz projections (Q539851)

Let \(P^+_n f(\zeta)= \sum_{\alpha\in K^n_+}\widehat f(\alpha)\zeta^\alpha\) be the Riesz projection on the torus \(\mathbb{T}^n\), considered as an operator \(P^+_n: L^\infty(\mathbb{T}^n)\to L^p(\mathbb{T}^n)\), where \(p> 2\). Then \(p_n= \sup\{p> 2:\| P^+_n\|_{\infty,p}= 1\}\) is called the critical exponent of \(P^+_n\). The following properties of \(p_n\) are proved: (1) \(p_1= 4\); (2) \(\lim_{p\to\infty} p^{-1}\| P^+_1\|_{\infty,p}= (\pi e)^{-1}\); (3) \(2+ 2(2^n- 1)^{-1}\leq p_n< 4\) for \(n> 1\). The authors considered also the cases of \(n=\infty\) and when \(\mathbb{T}^n\) is replaced by a subset \(E\) of the dual \(\widehat G\) of a compact abelian group \(G\).
