Let G be a locally compact Abelian group, and the set of bounded complex (regular countably-additive Borel) measures on G. It is well known that becomes a Banach space if the norm is defined bythe supremum being over all finite sets of disjoint Borel subsets of G.

Let S be a semigroup contained in a locally compact Abelian group G. Let Ĝ denote the Bohr compactification of G. We say that a sequence contained in S is Hartman uniform distributed on G iffor any character χ in Ĝ. Suppose that (Tg)g∈s is a semigroup of measurable measure preserving transformations of a probability space (X, β, μ) and B is an element of the σ-algebra β of positive μ measure. For a map T: X → X and a set A ⊆ X let T−1A denote {x ∈ X: Tx ∈ A}. In an earlier paper, the author showed that if k is Hartman uniform distributed thenIn this paper we show that ≥ cannot be replaced by =. A more detailed discussion of this situation ensues.

Throughout the whole paper G will be a locally compact abelian group with Haar measure m and dual group Ĝ. The difference of two sets A and B will be denoted by A ∼ B, i.e.,For a function f on G and s ∊ G, the functions f′ and fs will be defined by

Banach space valued stochastic processes of weak second order on a locally compact abelian group G G is considered. These processes are recognized as operator valued processes on G G . More fully, letting U \mathfrak {U} be a Banach space and H \mathfrak {H} a Hilbert space, we study B ( U , H ) B(\mathfrak {U},\mathfrak {H}) -valued processes. Since B ( U , H ) B(\mathfrak {U},\mathfrak {H}) has a B ( U , U ∗ ) B(\mathfrak {U},\mathfrak {U}^*) -valued gramian, every B ( U , H ) B(\mathfrak {U},\mathfrak {H}) -valued process has a B ( U , U ∗ ) B(\mathfrak {U},\mathfrak {U}^*) -valued covariance function. Using this property we can define operator stationarity, operator harmonizability and operator V V -boundedness for B ( U , H ) B(\mathfrak {U},\mathfrak {H}) -valued processes, in addition to scalar ones. Interrelations among these processes are obtained together with the operator stationary dilation.

SummaryLet G denote a Hausdorff locally compact Abelian group which is nondiscrete and second countable. The main results (Theorems (2.2) and (2.3)) assert that, for any closed subset E of G there exists a pseudomeasure s on G whose singular support is E; and that if no portion of E is a Helson set, then such an s may be chosen having its support equal to E. There follow (Corollaries (2.2.4) and (2.3.2)) sufficient conditions for the relations to hold for some pseudomeasure s, E and F being given closed subsets of G. These results are analogues and refinements of a theorem of Pollard [4] for the case G = R, which asserts the existence of a function in L∞(R) whose spectrum coincides with any preassigned closed subset of R.

In recent years, the Stone-Čech compactification of certain semigroups (e.g. discrete semigroups) has been an interesting semigroup compactification (i.e. a compact right semitopological semigroup which contains a dense continuous homomorphic image of the given semigroup) to study, because an Arens-type product can be introduced. If G is a non-compact and non-discrete locally compact abelian group, then it is not possible to introduce such a product into the Stone-Čech compactification βG of G (see [1]). However, let UC(G) be the Banach algebra of bounded uniformly continuous complex functions on G, and let UG be the spectrum of UC(G) with the Gelfand topology. If f∈ UC(G), then the functions f and fy defined on G byare also in UC(G).

AbstractLet G be a locally compact abelian group. An amalgam space (Lp ℓq)(G) (1 ≦ p,q ≦ ∞) is a Banach space of functions which belong locally to LP(G) and globally to ℓq. In this paper we present noninclusion results related to the Hausdorff-Young theorem for amalgams.

AbstractThe following generalization of a theorem of Weyl appeared in part I of this series of papers. Let G be a locally compact Abelian group with dual group ĝ. Let be a sequence in ĝ, not too slowly growing in a certain precise sense. Then, provided ĝ has ‘not too many’ elements of finite order, the sequencesare uniformly distributed on the circle, for almost all x in G.

AbstractWe study the problem of lifting various mixing properties from a base automorphismT∈Aut(X,ℬ,μ) to skew products of the formTφ,𝒮, where φ:X→Gis a cocycle with values in a locally compact Abelian groupG, 𝒮=(Sg)g∈Gis a measurable representation ofGinAut(Y,𝒞,ν) andTφ,𝒮acts on the product space (X×Y,ℬ⊗𝒞,μ⊗ν) byIt is also shown that wheneverTis ergodic (mildly mixing, mixing) butTφ,𝒮is not ergodic (is not mildly mixing, not mixing), then, on a non-trivial factor 𝒜⊂𝒞 of 𝒮, the corresponding Rokhlin cocyclex↦Sφ(x)∣𝒜is a coboundary (a quasi-coboundary).

Let G be a locally compact Abelian group; Γ the dual group of G; CB(Γ) the algebra of continuous, bounded functions on Γ C0(Γ) the algebra of continuous functions on Γ which vanish at infinity; M(G) the algebra of bounded Borel measures on G; M(G)^ the algebra of Fourier–Stieltjes transforms; and M(G)^− the completion of M(G)^ in the sup-norm topology on Γ. The object of this paper is to study the natural pairing between M(G)^ and M(Γ).
