Growth Estimates for Sine-Type-Functions and Applications to Riesz Bases of Exponentials Growth estimates for sine-type-functions and applications to Riesz bases of exponentials Alexander M. Lindner Abstract We present explicit estimates for the growth of sine-type-functions as well as for the derivatives at their zero sets, thus obtaining explicit constants in a result of Levin. The estimates are then used to derive explicit lower bounds for exponential Riesz bases, as they arise in Avdonin's Theorem on 1/4 in the mean or in a Theorem of Bogm´er, Horv´ath,Jo´oand Seip. An application is discussed, where knowledge of explicit lower bounds of exponential Riesz bases is desirable. 1 Introduction Consider the function sin(π ). From the triangle inequality, it follows that · π z sin πz e j= j z C j j ≤ 8 2 and 2π 1 e− π z − e j= j sin πz z C : z 1: 2 ≤ j j 8 2 j= j ≥ 1 in( ) Furthermore, the integers are the zero set of sin(π ), and ( e · )n Z is · p2π 2 an orthonormal basis for L2( π; π). Motivated by this, Levin asked for functions having similar properties− to the sine function, such that their zero sets give rise to more general bases of exponentials. In [12], he invented sine-type-functions. We have the following Definition 1.1 (a) An entire function F is of exponential type at most σ (σ > 0), if for any " > 0 there exists an A" > 0 such that (σ+") z F (z) A" e j j z C: j j ≤ · 8 2 1 sine-type-functions 2 If there is σ > 0, such that F is of exponential type at most σ, then F is called of exponential type. (b) Let σ > 0. An entire function F of exponential type is called σ-sine- type-function, if there are positive constants C1;C2 and τ such that σ y σ y C1 e j j F (x + iy) C2 e j j x; y R : y τ: (1) · ≤ j j ≤ · 8 2 j j ≥ We shall say that F has growth constants (C1;C2; τ): A large class of sine-type-functions was established by Sedleckiˇi [19], see also Young [24, Ch. 4, Sec. 5, Problem 3]. iλn( ) 2 In [12], Levin proved that (e · )n Z will be a Schauder basis for L ( σ; σ) 2 − if (λn)n Z is the zero set of a σ-sine-type-function and if it is separated. In [5], 2 iλn( ) 2 Golovin showed that (e · )n Z will then even be a Riesz basis for L ( σ; σ). Here we have the following definitions:2 − Definition 1.2 A sequence (λn)n Z of complex numbers is called separated, if there is δ > 0 such that 2 λn λm δ n; m Z : n = m: j − j ≥ 8 2 6 The constant δ is called a separation constant. Definition 1.3 Let σ > 0 and (λn)n Z be a sequence of complex numbers. iλn( ) 22 iλn( ) Then (e · )n Z is a Riesz basis for L ( σ; σ), if (e · )n Z is complete in L2( σ; σ) and2 if there are positive constants− A and B such2 that − σ 2 2 iλkx 2 A ck Z ck e dx B ck (2) X j j ≤ σ X ≤ X j j − holds for all finite sequences (ck) of complex scalars. The constants A and B are called lower and upper bounds of the Riesz basis. Riesz bases of exponentials allow representations of functions as infinite series. They also give rise to irregular sampling series. For the correspond- ing truncation error, explicit estimates for the bounds of the Riesz basis are needed. This will be discussed in Section 3. To obtain the result of Levin and Golovin mentioned above, Levin [12, 13] showed that a sine-type-function has the following properties. The proofs can be found in Levin [12], [13], [14, Lectures 6, 17, 22]. sine-type-functions 3 Theorem 1.4 Let F be a σ-sine-type-function with zero sequence (λn)n Z, counted according to multiplicity, and ordered such that 2 λn λn+1 n Z: (3) < ≤ < 8 2 Then holds: (a) M > 0 : λn+1 λn M n Z: (4) 9 j − j ≤ 8 2 (b) For any positive number r, there exists some positive integer Sr such that for every t R, 2 card n Z : r λn t < r Sr: (5) f 2 − ≤ < − g ≤ (c) If we put 1 z/λ ; if λ = 0 ( n n Gλn (z) := − 6 z; if λn = 0; then there is a constant CF = 0 such that 6 F (z) = CF lim Gλn (z) z C: (6) · R Y 8 2 !1 n Z: λn R 2 j |≤ The product converges locally uniformly on C. (d) σ z C0 > 0 : F (z) C0 e j= j z C: 9 2 j j ≤ 2 · 8 2 (e) For any " > 0 there exists m" > 0 such that σ z F (z) m" e j= j z C : dist (z; λn : n Z ) ": (7) j j ≥ · 8 2 f 2 g ≥ (f) If (λn)n Z is separated, then there exist positive constants C3 and C4 such that2 C3 F 0(λn) C4 n Z: (8) ≤ j j ≤ 8 2 Properties (a) and (b) refer to the sequence (λn)n Z, and are usually easy to check. We also remark that by the Hadamard Factorization2 Theorem, the zero-set of any sine-type-function must be countable infinite. Furthermore, the exponential type σ is related with the numbers Sr via the following Lemma by Horv´athand Jo´o[6, Lemma 2]: sine-type-functions 4 Lemma 1.5 Let F be a σ-sine-type function with zero sequence (λn)n Z. Then it holds 2 1 lim max card n Z : r λn t < r = r r t R !1 2 f 2 − ≤ < − g 1 σ lim min card n Z : r λn t < r = : r r t R π !1 2 f 2 − ≤ < − g In particular, if Sr denotes the best constant occuring in (5), then S S σ inf r = lim r = : r>0 2r r 2r π !1 Suppose that F is a σ-sine-type-function which has growth constants (C1;C2; τ). Then it is easy to show that possible choices for C20 and C4 are στ C0 := C2 e ; 2 · 2 στ+σδ=2 C4 := C2 e δ · · (using the maximum principle for C20 and Levin's proof for C4). However, Levin's proof for the existence of the sequence (m")">0 was indirect. He thus obtained no explicit values for m", in terms of the growth constants, of σ and of constants describing the sequence (λn)n Z, e.g. a separation constant or the constants M and S appearing in (a) and2 (b). Since he derived the ex- istence of C3 using mδ=2 (where δ is the separation constant), he neither did obtain an explicit expression for C3. In this paper, we shall obtain explicit estimates for m" and for C3. This will be done in the next section, where we also give examples to discuss the goodness of these estimates. In [11, Theorem 2], Katsnel'son proved a generalization of Levin and Golovin's Theorem, which was further generalized by Avdonin [1, Theorem 2]. The latter proved, that if the deviation of (λn)n Z from the zero set of 2 iλn( ) a sine-type-function is less than "1/4 in the mean", then (e · )n Z forms a Riesz basis for L2( π; π). However, while it is easy to give an explicit2 ex- pression for an upper− bound, Avdonin's proof for the lower bound rested on property (f) of Theorem 1.4. Thus, its existence was proved indirectly and he did not obtain an explicit expression for the lower bound, in terms of the restricting data. Using our results on sine-type-functions from Section 2 en- ables us to give an explicit lower bound for Avdonin's Theorem on 1/4 in the sine-type-functions 5 mean. This will be done in Section 3, along with applications for Riesz bases of exponentials and their bounds. We shall also give explicit lower bounds for a Theorem of Bogm´er–Horv´ath–Jo´o{Seip[2, Theorem 3], [20, Theorem 2.3] and for a Theorem of Duffin–Schaeffer [4, Theorem I]. For special cases, explicit estimates have already been given in [15], [21]. Here, we shall obtain lower bounds for the Theorems in full generality. Lower bounds for the The- orem of Duffin–Schaeffer in full generality (i.e., for complex sequences) have also been obtained by Voß [22, 23]. The motivation for our studies is that for practical applications of bases of exponentials, knowledge of the occuring bounds is essential (cf. Section 3). To obtain such bounds, explicit estimates for sine-type-functions turn out to be a good tool. It should be noted that our results are aimed to provide first estimates for the occuring theorems. While the derived estimates for the sine-type- function seem to be quite good, our values for Avdonin's theorem are too small to be valuable in practice so that further research would be desirable. To conclude this section we want to mention the characterization of ex- ponential Riesz bases by Pavlov [18, Theorem 1]: Theorem 1.6 Let (λn)n Z be a sequence of complex numbers satisfying 2 0 < c1 λn c2 n Z ≤ = ≤ 8 2 iλn( ) with two positive constants c1 and c2.

  • A Property of the Derivative of an Entire Function
    A property of the derivative of an entire function Walter Bergweiler∗ and Alexandre Eremenko† July 21, 2011 Abstract We prove that the derivative of a non-linear entire function is un- bounded on the preimage of an unbounded set. MSC 2010: 30D30. Keywords: entire function, normal family. 1 Introduction and results The main result of this paper is the following theorem conjectured by Allen Weitsman (private communication): Theorem 1. Let f be a non-linear entire function and M an unbounded set in C. Then f ′(f −1(M)) is unbounded. We note that there exist entire functions f such that f ′(f −1(M)) is bounded for every bounded set M, for example, f(z)= ez or f(z) = cos z. Theorem 1 is a consequence of the following stronger result: Theorem 2. Let f be a transcendental entire function and ε > 0. Then there exists R> 0 such that for every w C satisfying w >R there exists ∈ | | z C with f(z)= w and f ′(z) w 1−ε. ∈ | | ≥ | | ∗Supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, Be 1508/7-1, and the ESF Net- working Programme HCAA. †Supported by NSF grant DMS-1067886. 1 The example f(z)= √z sin √z shows that that the exponent 1 ε in the − last inequality cannot be replaced by 1. The function f(z) = cos √z has the property that for every w C we have f ′(z) 0 as z , z f −1(w). ∈ → → ∞ ∈ We note that the Wiman–Valiron theory [20, 12, 4] says that there exists a set F [1, ) of finite logarithmic measure such that if ⊂ ∞ zr = r / F and f(zr) = max f(z) , | | ∈ | | |z|=r | | then ν(r,f) z ′ ν(r, f) f(z) f(zr) and f (z) f(z) ∼ zr ∼ r −1/2−δ for z zr rν(r, f) as r .

  • Applications of Entire Function Theory to the Spectral Synthesis of Diagonal Operators
    APPLICATIONS OF ENTIRE FUNCTION THEORY TO THE SPECTRAL SYNTHESIS OF DIAGONAL OPERATORS Kate Overmoyer A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2011 Committee: Steven M. Seubert, Advisor Kyoo Kim, Graduate Faculty Representative Kit C. Chan J. Gordon Wade ii ABSTRACT Steven M. Seubert, Advisor A diagonal operator acting on the space H(B(0;R)) of functions analytic on the disk B(0;R) where 0 < R ≤ 1 is defined to be any continuous linear map on H(B(0;R)) having the monomials zn as eigenvectors. In this dissertation, examples of diagonal operators D acting on the spaces H(B(0;R)) where 0 < R < 1, are constructed which fail to admit spectral synthesis; that is, which have invariant subspaces that are not spanned by collec- tions of eigenvectors. Examples include diagonal operators whose eigenvalues are the points fnae2πij=b : 0 ≤ j < bg lying on finitely many rays for suitably chosen a 2 (0; 1) and b 2 N, and more generally whose eigenvalues are the integer lattice points Z×iZ. Conditions for re- moving or perturbing countably many of the eigenvalues of a non-synthetic operator which yield another non-synthetic operator are also given. In addition, sufficient conditions are given for a diagonal operator on the space H(B(0;R)) of entire functions (for which R = 1) to admit spectral synthesis. iii This dissertation is dedicated to my family who believed in me even when I did not believe in myself.

  • Interpolation and Approximation by Entire Functions
    Interpolation and Approximation by Entire Functions Friedrich Littmann Abstract. In this note we study the connection between best ap- proximation and interpolation by entire functions on the real line. A general representation for entire interpolants is outlined. As an illustration, best upper and lower approximations from the class of functions of fixed exponential type to the Gaussian are constructed. §1. Approximation Background The Fourier transform of ϕ ∈ L1(R) is defined by Z ∞ −2πixt ϕb(t) = ϕ(x)e dx. −∞ This article considers the following problem: given a function f : R → R and a sequence of points {aj}j∈N from R (not necessarily distinct), find entire functions A and F such that F has its real zeros at the values aj and such that the equality f(x) − A(x) = F (x)H(x) (1) holds with a function H which is real-valued and of one sign on the real line. Classically, this is often done by defining A with aid of an interpola- tion series and then estimating the difference on the left-hand side of (1). Investigations by Holt and Vaaler [5], Li and Vaaler [7], and the author [8] suggest that a generalization of this approach is needed which allows for non-equally spaced node sets. The starting point is a relation between F and a function g given by Z ∞ 1 = F (x) extg(t)dt, (2) −∞ Conference Title 1 Editors pp. 1–6. Copyright Oc 2005 by Nashboro Press, Brentwood, TN.

  • Chapter 2 Complex Analysis
    Chapter 2 Complex Analysis In this part of the course we will study some basic complex analysis. This is an extremely useful and beautiful part of mathematics and forms the basis of many techniques employed in many branches of mathematics and physics. We will extend the notions of derivatives and integrals, familiar from calculus, to the case of complex functions of a complex variable. In so doing we will come across analytic functions, which form the centerpiece of this part of the course. In fact, to a large extent complex analysis is the study of analytic functions. After a brief review of complex numbers as points in the complex plane, we will ¯rst discuss analyticity and give plenty of examples of analytic functions. We will then discuss complex integration, culminating with the generalised Cauchy Integral Formula, and some of its applications. We then go on to discuss the power series representations of analytic functions and the residue calculus, which will allow us to compute many real integrals and in¯nite sums very easily via complex integration. 2.1 Analytic functions In this section we will study complex functions of a complex variable. We will see that di®erentiability of such a function is a non-trivial property, giving rise to the concept of an analytic function. We will then study many examples of analytic functions. In fact, the construction of analytic functions will form a basic leitmotif for this part of the course. 2.1.1 The complex plane We already discussed complex numbers briefly in Section 1.3.5.

  • A New Entire Factorial Function
    A new entire factorial function Matthew D. Klimek Laboratory for Elementary Particle Physics, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, 14853, USA Department of Physics, Korea University, Seoul 02841, Republic of Korea Abstract We introduce a new factorial function which agrees with the usual Euler gamma function at both the positive integers and at all half-integers, but which is also entire. We describe the basic features of this function. The canonical extension of the factorial to the complex plane is given by Euler's gamma function Γ(z). It is the only such extension that satisfies the recurrence relation zΓ(z) = Γ(z + 1) and is logarithmically convex for all positive real z [1, 2]. (For an alternative function theoretic characterization of Γ(z), see [3].) As a consequence of the recurrence relation, Γ(z) is a meromorphic function when continued onto − the complex plane. It has poles at all non-positive integer values of z 2 Z0 . However, dropping the two conditions above, there are infinitely many other extensions of the factorial that could be constructed. Perhaps the second best known factorial function after Euler's is that of Hadamard [4] which can be expressed as sin πz z z + 1 H(z) = Γ(z) 1 + − ≡ Γ(z)[1 + Q(z)] (1) 2π 2 2 where (z) is the digamma function d Γ0(z) (z) = log Γ(z) = : (2) dz Γ(z) The second term in brackets is given the name Q(z) for later convenience. We see that the Hadamard gamma is a certain multiplicative modification to the Euler gamma.

    IV.3. Zeros of an Analytic Function 1 IV.3. Zeros of an Analytic Function Note. We now explore factoring series in a way analogous to factoring a poly- nomial. Recall that if p is a polynomial with a zero a of multiplicity m, then p(z)=(z − a)mt(z) for a polynomial t(z) such that t(a) =6 0. Definition. If f : G → C is analytic and a ∈ G satisfies f(a) = 0, then a is a zero of multiplicity m ≥ 1 if there is analytic g : G → C such that f(z)=(z − a)mg(z) where g(a) =6 0. Note. “The reader might be pleasantly surprised to know that after many years of studying Mathematics he is right now on the threshold of proving the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra.” (page 76) Definition. An entire function is a function analytic in the entire complex plane. Entire functions are sometimes called integral functions. Note. An area of study in complex analysis is entire function theory. A classical book in this area is Ralph Boas’ Entire Functions (Academic Press, 1954).
