Exponential Orlicz Spaces: New Norms and Applications. E.I.Ostrovsky. Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, Ben Gurion University, Israel, Beer - Sheva, 84105, Ben Gurion street, 2, P.O. BOX 61, E - mail: [email protected] Abstract The aim of this paper is investigating of Orlicz spaces with exponential N function and correspondence Orlicz norm: we introduce some new equivalent norms, obtain the tail characterization, study the product of functions in Orlicz spaces etc. We consider some applications: estimation of operators in Orlicz spaces and problem of martingales convergence and divergence. Key words: Orlicz spaces, ∆2 condition, martingale, slowly varying func- tion, absolute continuous norm. Math. Sub. Classification (2000): 47A45, 47A60, 47B10, 18D05. 60F10, 60G10, 60G50. 1. INTRODUCTION. Let (Ω, F, P) be a probability space. Introduce the following set of N Orlicz functions: − LW = N = N(u)= N(W, u) = exp(W (log u)) , u e2 { } ≥ where W is a continuous strictly increasing convex function in domain [2, ) arXiv:math/0406534v1 [math.FA] 25 Jun 2004 / / ∞ such that u limu W (u) = ; here W (u) denotes the left →∞ ⇒ →∞ − ∞ − derivative of the function W. We define the function N(W (u)) arbitrary for the values u [0, e2) but so that N(W (u)) will be continuous convex strictly increasing and∈ such that u 0+ N(W (u)) C(W )u2, → ⇒ ∼ for some C(W ) = const (0, ). For u < 0 we define as usually ∈ ∞ N(W (u)) = N(W ( u )). | | 1 We denote the set of all those N functions as ENF : ENF = N(W ( )) (Exponential N - Functions)− and denote also the correspondence { · } Orlicz space as EOS(W ) = Exponential Orlicz Space or simple EW with Orlicz (or, equally, Luxemburg) norm 1 η L(N)= η L(N(W )) = inf v− (1 + EN(W ( ), vη) , || || || || v>0{ · } where E, D denote the expectation and variance with respect to the prob- ability measure P : Eη = η(ω) P(dω). ZΩ Let us introduce the following important function: ψ(p)= ψ(W, p) = exp(W ∗(p)/p), p 2, (1) ≥ where def W ∗(p) = sup(pz W (z)) z 2 − − ≥ is the Young - Fenchel transform of W. The function p p log ψ( )= W ∗( ) → · · is continuous convex increasing and such that p p log ψ(p) . ↑∞ ⇒ ↑∞ We denote the set of all those functions ψ = ψ(W, p) = exp(W ∗(p)/p) by the symbol Ψ : { } { } { } Ψ= ψ(W, p) = exp(W ∗(p)/p) . ∪W { } { } Inversely, W ( ) may be constructed by means of ψ : · W (p)=(p log ψ(p))∗ (theorem of Fenchel - Moraux). Definition. We introduce the so - called G(ψ) norm for arbitrary func- tion ψ( ) Ψ and the correspondent G(ψ) space: η G(ψ) iff · ∈ ∈ def η G(ψ) = sup η p/ψ(p) < , || || p 2 | | ∞ ≥ where denotes the classical L norm: |·|p p η = E1/p η p, p 1. | |p | | ≥ 2 2 2 In particular, η 2 = Dη + E η.

For − ∈ ∀ ⇒ α ∈ example, put ψ(p) = sup ηα p. α | | Remark 1. In this paper the letters C,Cj will denote positive finite various constants which may differ from one formula to another and which do not depend on the essential parameters: x, u, p, z, λ. 2.

This result is a little generalization of [3]; see also [16], p.305, as long as we do not suppose that the function η = η(ω), ω Ω to be exponential integrable: ∈ λ> 0 E exp(λ η ) < ∃ ⇒ | | ∞ (so - called Kramer condition). Proof. a). Suppose η EW, η = 0. Then for some C (0, ) E exp(W (log C η )) < . Proposition∈ 6 (2) follows from Chebyshev∈ inequal-∞ ⇒ ity. | | ∞ b). Inversely, let us assume that η(ω) is a measurable function such that P( η >u) exp( W (log u)), u e2. | | ≤ − ≥ Then, by virtue of properties W ( ) we have: · EN(W ( η /e2)) = N(W, η(ω) /e2) P(dω) | | ZΩ | | ≤ ∞ 2 C1 + exp((W ( η /e )) P(dω) C1+ ek< η ek+1 | | ≤ kX=2 Z | |≤ 3 ∞ ∞ exp((W (k 1)) P( η >k) C + exp(W (k) W (k + 1)) < . − | | ≤ 2 − ∞ kX=2 kX=2 Hence η L(N(W )) < . c) Let|| || η G(ψ);∞ without loss of generality we can assume that ∈ η G(ψ)=1.

Therefore, G0(ψ) GB0(ψ). (The set GB→∞0(ψ) is a closed→∞ subspace of G(ψ) with⊂ respect to the G(ψ) norm and contains all bounded random variables). 2. Conversely, assume η GB0(ψ). Let us denote η(K) = ηI( η > ∈ | | K), K (0, ). We deduce: ∈ ∞ Q 2 lim η(K) Q =0.
