Abstract: It is well--known that certain properties of continuous functions on the circle $mathbbT$, related to the Fourier expansion, can be improved by a change of variable, i.e., by a homeomorphism of the circle onto itself. One of the results in this area is the Jurkat--Waterman theorem on conjugate functions, which improves the classical Bohr--P'al theorem. In the present work we provide a short and technically very simple proof of the Jurkat--Waterman theorem. Our approach yields a stronger result.

Review text

The classical Bohr-Pál theorem states that for every real-valued continuous function on the circle, there exists a homeomorphism of the circle onto itself such that the superposition belongs to the space of functions with uniformly convergent Fourier series. Jurkat and Waterman improved this result by showing that there exists a homeomorphism of the circle onto itself such that the conjugate of the superposition is continuous and of bounded variation. The Bohr-Pál theorem follows from this result. In the paper under review, the author gives a short and technically very simple proof of the Jurkat-Waterman theorem. Moreover, the approach elaborated leads to a stronger result.
