Hardy Space - Hardy Spaces For The Upper Half Plane

Hardy Spaces For The Upper Half Plane

It is possible to define Hardy spaces on other domains than the disc, and in many applications Hardy spaces on a complex half-plane (usually the right half-plane or upper half-plane) are used.

The Hardy space on the upper half-plane is defined to be the space of holomorphic functions f on with bounded (quasi-)norm, the norm being given by

The corresponding is defined as functions of bounded norm, with the norm given by

Although the unit disk and the upper half-plane can be mapped to one another by means of Möbius transformations, they are not interchangeable as domains for Hardy spaces. Contributing to this difference is the fact that the unit circle has finite (one-dimensional) Lebesgue measure while the real line does not. However, for H2, one may still state the following theorem: Given the Möbius transformation with

then there is an isometric isomorphism

Famous quotes containing the words hardy, spaces, upper and/or plane:

    The value of old age depends upon the person who reaches it. To some men of early performance it is useless. To others, who are late to develop, it just enables them to finish the job.
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    Every true man is a cause, a country, and an age; requires infinite spaces and numbers and time fully to accomplish his design;—and posterity seem to follow his steps as a train of clients.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The thirst for powerful sensations takes the upper hand both over fear and over compassion for the grief of others.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    In time the scouring of wind and rain will wear down the ranges and plane off the region until it has the drab monotony of the older deserts. In the meantime—a two-million-year meantime—travelers may enjoy the cruel beauties of a desert in its youth,....
