In [8], Rooney defines a class of complex-valued functions ζ each of which is analytic in a vertical strip α(ζ)< Res < β(ζ) in the complex s-plane and satisfies certain growth conditions as |Im s| →∞ along fixed lines Re s = c lying within this strip. These conditions mean that the functionsfulfil the requirements of the one-dimensional Mihlin-Hörmander theorem (see [6, p. 417]) and so can be regarded as Fourier multipliers for the Banach spaces . Consequently, each function gives rise to a family of bounded operators W[ζ,σ] σ ∈(α(ζ),β(ζ)), on , 1<p<∞.
