Abstract: The Hardy--Littlewood inequalities for multilinear forms on sequence spaces state that for all positive integers m,ngeq2 and all m-linear forms T:ellp1nimescdotsimesellpmnightarrowmathbbK (mathbbK=mathbbR or mathbbC) there are constants Cmgeq1 (not depending on n) such that [ left( sum_{j_{1},ldots,j_{m}=1}^{n}leftvert T(e_{j_{1}},ldots,e_{j_{m}}) ightvert ^{ ho} ight) ^{frac{1}{ ho}}leq C_{m}sup_{leftVert x_{1} ightVert ,dots,leftVert x_{m} ightVert leq 1}leftvert T(x_{1},dots,x_{m}) ightvert, ] where ho=frac2mm+1−2left(frac1p1+cdots+frac1pmight) if 0leqfrac1p1+cdots+frac1pmleqfrac12 or ho=frac11−left(frac1p1+cdots+frac1pmight) if frac12leqfrac1p1+cdots+frac1pm<1. Good estimates for the Hardy-Littlewood constants are, in general, associated to applications in Mathematics and even in Physics, but the exact behavior of these constants is still unknown. In this note we give some new contributions to the behavior of the constants in the case frac12leqfrac1p1+cdots+frac1pm<1. As a consequence of our main result, we present a generalization and a simplified proof of a result due to Aron et al. on certain Hardy--Littlewood type inequalities.


Let \(m \geq 2\) and \(\mathbf{p} = (p_1, \ldots, p_m) \in (1,\infty]^m\), with \(0 \leq \left|\frac{1}{\mathbf{p}}\right|:= \frac{1}{p_1} + \cdots + \frac{1}{p_m} <1\). The so-called Hardy-Littlewood inequalities for multilinear forms assert that, for all positive integers \(n\) and all \(m\)-linear forms \(T: \ell_{p_1}^n \times \cdots \times \ell_{p_m}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{K}\), there exist constants \(C_{m,p}^\mathbb{K}, D_{m,p}^\mathbb{K} \geq 1\) (that do not depend on \(n\)) such that \[ \left(\sum_{j_1, \dots , j_m = 1}^{n} |T(e_{j_1}, \dots , e_{j_m})|^{\frac{2m}{m+1-2\left|\frac{1}{\mathbf{p}}\right|}}\right)^{\frac{m+1-2\left|\frac{1}{\mathbf{p}}\right|}{2m}} \leq C_{m,\mathbf{p}}^\mathbb{K} \|T\|, \] for \(0 \leq \left|\frac{1}{\mathbf{p}}\right| \leq \frac{1}{2}\), and \[ \left(\sum_{j_1, \dots , j_m = 1}^{n} |T(e_{j_1}, \dots , e_{j_m})|^{\frac{1}{1-\left|\frac{1}{\mathbf{p}}\right|}}\right)^{1-\left|\frac{1}{\mathbf{p}}\right|} \leq D_{m,\mathbf{p}}^\mathbb{K} \|T\|, \] for \(\frac{1}{2} \leq \left|\frac{1}{\mathbf{p}}\right| < 1\). The purpose of this paper is to get better information about bounds for the constants \(D_{m,p}^\mathbb{K}\) in the second inequality above, which surprisingly is more devoid of better results than those of the first inequality. The authors use a simpler and self-contained (in their own words, with which I agree) approach to generalize a recent result proved by \textit{N. Albuquerque} et al. [Ann. Math. Blaise Pascal 25, No. 1, 1--20 (2018; Zbl 1410.46027)] and, as a consequence, they prove that a universal bound obtained by \textit{R. M. Aron} et al. [Linear Algebra Appl. 531, 399--422 (2017; Zbl 1492.47005)] works for more general Hardy-Littlewood inequalities, that is, with more freedom over the parameters.
