We develop a very general operator-valued functional calculus for operators with an $H^{\infty}-$calculus. We then apply this to the joint functional calculus of two commuting sectorial operators when one has an $H^{\infty}$calculus. Using this we prove theorem of Dore-Venni type on sums of commuting sectorial operators and apply our results to the problem of $L_p-$maximal regularity. Our main assumption is the R-boundedness of certain sets of operators, and therefore methods from the geometry of Banach spaces are essential here. In the final section we exploit the special Banach space structure of $L_1-$spaces and $C(K)-$spaces, to obtain some more detailed results in this setting.
This note deals with the boundedness of the $H^\infty$ functional calculus of Ritt operators $T$ and associated square function estimates. The purpose is to give a shorter, concise and slightly more general approach towards Le~Merdy's results [19] on this subject.
In this paper we extend the $H^\infty$ functional calculus to quaternionic operators and to $n$-tuples of noncommuting operators using the theory of slice hyperholomorphic functions and the associated functional calculus, called $S$-functional calculus. The $S$-functional calculus has two versions one for quaternionic-valued functions and one for Clifford algebra-valued functions and can be considered the Riesz-Dunford functional calculus based on slice hyperholomorphicity because it shares with it the most important properties. The $S$-functional calculus is based on the notion of $S$-spectru…
In this work we investigate semigroups of operators acting on noncommutative $L^p$-spaces. We introduce noncommutative square functions and their connection to sectoriality, variants of Rademacher sectoriality, and $H^\infty$ functional calculus. We discuss several examples of noncommutative diffusion semigroups. This includes Schur multipliers, $q$-Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups, and the noncommutative Poisson semigroup on free groups.
By using an $H^{\infty}$ joint functional calculus for strongly commuting operators, we derive a scheme to deduce the $L^p$ boundedness of certain $d$-dimensional Riesz transforms from the $L^p$ boundedness of appropriate one-dimensional Riesz transforms. Moreover, the $L^p$ bounds we obtain are independent of the dimension. The scheme is applied to Riesz transforms connected with orthogonal expansions and discrete Riesz transforms on products of groups with polynomial growth.
Let T_t = e^{-tA} be a bounded analytic semigroup on Lp, with 1<p<\infty. It is known that if A and its adjoint A^* both satisfy square function estimates \bignorm{\bigl(\int_{0}^{\infty}| A^{1/2} T_t(x)|^2\, dt\,\bigr)^{1/2}_{Lp} \lesssim \norm{x} and \bignorm{\bigl(\int_{0}^{\infty}|A^{*}^{1/2} T_t^*(y)|^2\, dt\,\bigr)^{1/2}_{Lp'} \lesssim \norm{y} for x in Lp and y in Lp', then A admits a bounded H^{\infty}(Σ_θ) functional calculus for any θ>\fracπ{2}. We show that this actually holds true for some θ<\fracπ{2}.
This paper is devoted to the multivariable $H^\infty$ functional calculus associated with a finite commuting family of sectorial operators on Banach space. First we prove that if $(A_1,\ldots, A_d)$ is such a family, if $A_k$ is $R$-sectorial of $R$-type $ω_k\in(0,π)$, $k=1,\ldots,d$, and if $(A_1,\ldots, A_d)$ admits a bounded $H^\infty(Σ_{θ_1}\times \cdots\timesΣ_{θ_d})$ joint functional calculus for some $θ_k\in (ω_k,π)$, then it admits a bounded $H^\infty(Σ_{θ_1}\times \cdots\timesΣ_{θ_d})$ joint functional calculus for all $θ_k\in (ω_k,π)$, $k=1,\ldots,d$. Second we introduce square funct…
We study bounded holomorphic functional calculus for nonsymmetric infinite dimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operators ${\mathscr L}$. We prove that if $-{\mathscr L}$ generates an analytic semigroup on $L^{2}(γ_{\infty})$, then ${\mathscr L}$ has bounded holomorphic functional calculus on $L^{r}(γ_{\infty})$, $1<r<\infty$, in any sector of angle $θ>θ^{*}_{r}$, where $γ_{\infty}$ is the associated invariant measure and $θ^{*}_{r}$ the sectoriality angle of ${\mathscr L}$ on $L^{r}(γ_{\infty})$. The angle $θ^{*}_{r}$ is optimal. In particular our result applies to any nondegenerate finite dimensio…
We show that a bounded analytic semigroup on an $L_p$-space has a bounded $H^{\infty}(Σ_φ)$-calculus for some $φ< \fracπ{2}$ if and only if the semigroup can be obtained, after restricting to invariant subspaces, factorizing through invariant subspaces and similarity transforms, from a bounded analytic semigroup on some bigger $L_p$-space which is positive and contractive on the real line.
We introduce and investigate $H^\infty$-functional calculus for commuting finite families of Ritt operators on Banach space $X$. We show that if either $X$ is a Banach lattice or $X$ or $X^*$ has property $(α)$, then a commuting $d$-tuple $(T_1,\ldots, T_d)$ of Ritt operators on $X$ has an $H^\infty$ joint functional calculus if and only if each $T_k$ admits an $H^\infty$ functional calculus. Next for $p\in(1,\infty)$, we characterize commuting $d$-tuple of Ritt operators on $L^p(Ω)$ which admit an $H^\infty$ joint functional calculus, by a joint dilation property. We also obtain a similar cha…
We show that any bounded analytic semigroup on $L^p$ (with $1<p<\infty$) whose negative generator admits a bounded $H^{\infty}$ functional calculus with respect to some angle $< π/2$ can be dilated into a bounded analytic semigroup $(R_t)_{t\geq 0}$ on a bigger $L^p$-space in such a way that $R_t$ is a positive contraction for any $t$. We also establish a discrete analogue for Ritt operators and consider the case when $L^p$-spaces are replaced by more general Banach spaces. In connection with these functional calculus issues, we study isometric dilations of bounded continuous representations o…
We prove that the negative infinitesimal generator $L$ of a semigroup of positive contractions on $L^\infty$ has a bounded $H^\infty(S_η^0)$-calculus on the associated Poisson semigroup-BMO space for any angle $η>π/2$, provided the semigroup satisfies Bakry-Emry's $Γ_2 $ criterion. Our arguments only rely on the properties of the underlying semigroup and works well in the noncommutative setting. A key ingredient of our argument is a quasi monotone property for the subordinated semigroup $T_{t,α}=e^{-tL^α},0<α<1$, that is proved in the first half of the article.
Given a Hilbert space and the generator $A$ of a strongly continuous, exponentially stable, semigroup on this Hilbert space. For any $g(-s) \in {\mathcal H}_{\infty}$ we show that there exists an infinite-time admissible output operator $g(A)$. If $g$ is rational, then this operator is bounded, and equals the "normal" definition of $g(A)$. In particular, when $g(s)=1/(s + α)$, $ α\in {\mathbb C}_0^+$, then this admissible output operator equals $(αI - A)^{-1}$. Although in general $g(A)$ may be unbounded, we always have that $g(A)$ multiplied by the semigroup is a bounded operator for every (s…
Using notions from the geometry of Banach spaces we introduce square functions $γ(Ω,X)$ for functions with values in an arbitrary Banach space $X$. We show that they have very convenient function space properties comparable to the Bochner norm of $L_2(Ω,H)$ for a Hilbert space $H$. In particular all bounded operators $T$ on $H$ can be extended to $γ(Ω,X)$ for all Banach spaces $X$. Our main applications are characterizations of the $H^{\infty}$--calculus that extend known results for $L_p$--spaces from \cite{CowlingDoustMcIntoshYagi}. With these square function estimates we show, e. g., that a…
In this article, we first study, in the framework of operator theory, Pusz and Woronowicz's functional calculus for pairs of bounded positive operators on Hilbert spaces associated with a homogeneous two-variable function on $[0,\infty)^2$. Our construction has special features that functions on $[0,\infty)^2$ are assumed only locally bounded from below and that the functional calculus is allowed to take extended semibounded self-adjoint operators. To analyze convexity properties of the functional calculus, we extend the notion of operator convexity for real functions to that for functions wit…
We establish the existence of a bounded $H_\infty$-calculus for a large class of hypoelliptic pseudodifferential operators on R^n and closed manifolds.
$SL^\infty$ denotes the space of functions whose square function is in $L^\infty$, and the subspaces $SL^\infty_n$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$, are the finite dimensional building blocks of $SL^\infty$. We show that the identity operator $I_{SL^\infty_n}$ on $SL^\infty_n$ well factors through operators $T : SL^\infty_N\to SL^\infty_N$ having large diagonal with respect to the standard Haar system. Moreover, we prove that $I_{SL^\infty_n}$ well factors either through any given operator $T : SL^\infty_N\to SL^\infty_N$, or through $I_{SL^\infty_N}-T$. Let $X^{(r)}$ denote the direct sum $\bigl(\sum_{n\in\…
We prove that parameter-elliptic extensions of cone differential operators have a bounded $H_\infty$-calculus. Applications concern the Laplacian and the porous medium equation on manifolds with warped conical singularities.
We show that every unconditional basis in a finite direct sum $\bigoplus_{p\in A} \ell_p$, with $A\subset (0,\infty]$, splits into unconditional bases of each summand. This settles a 40 year old question raised in [A. Ortyński, Unconditional bases in $\ell_{p}\oplus\ell_{q},$ $0<p<q<1$, Math. Nachr. 103 (1981), 109-116]. As an application we obtain that for any $A\subset (0,1]$ finite, the spaces $Z=\bigoplus_{p\in A} \ell_p$, $Z\oplus \ell_{2}$, and $Z\oplus c_{0}$ have a unique unconditional basis up to permutation.
Two methods of constructing infinitely many isomorphically distinct $\Cal L_p$-spaces have been published. In this article we show that these constructions yield very different spaces and in the process develop methods for dealing with these spaces from the isomorphic viewpoint. We use these methods to give a complete isomorphic classification of the spaces $R_p^α$ constructed by Bourgain, Rosenthal, and Schechtman and to show that $X_p\otimes X_p$ is not isomorphic to a complemented subspace of any $R_p^α.$
We show that, given a Banach space and a generator of an exponentially stable $C_{0}$-semigroup, a weakly admissible operator $g(A)$ can be defined for any $g$ bounded, analytic function on the left half-plane. This yields an (unbounded) functional calculus. The construction uses a Toeplitz operator and is motivated by system theory. In separable Hilbert spaces, we even get admissibility. Furthermore, it is investigated when a bounded calculus can be guaranteed. For this we introduce the new notion of exact observability by direction. Finally, it is shown that the calculus coincides with one f…
We give a simple proof of the fact that the classical Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator $L$ is R-sectorial of angle $arcsin|1-2/p|$ on $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n},\exp(-|x|^2/2)dx)$ (for $1<p<\infty$). Applying the abstract holomorphic functional calculus theory of Kalton and Weis, this immediately gives a new proof of the fact that $L$ has a bounded $H^{\infty}$ functional calculus with this optimal angle.
We discuss the notion of $γ$-$H^{\infty}$-bounded calculus, strong $γ$-$m$-$H^{\infty}$-bounded calculus on half-plane and weak-$γ$-Gomilko-Shi-Feng condition and give a connection between them. Then we state a characterization of generation of $γ$-bounded $C_0$-semigroup in $K$-convex space, which leads to a version of Gearhart-Prüss on $K$-convex space.
A Ritt operator T : X --> X on Banach space is a power bounded operator such that the sequence of all n(T^{n} -T^{n-1}) is bounded. When X=Lp for some 1<p<\infty, we study the validity of square functions estimates Norm{(\sum_k k |T^{k}(x) - T^{k-1}(x)|^2)^{1/2}}_{Lp} \leq K Norm{x}_{Lp} for such operators. We show that T and its adjoint T^* both satisfy such estimates if and only if T admits a bounded functional calculus with respect to a Stolz domain. This is a single operator analog of the famous Cowling-Doust-McIntosh-Yagi characterization of bounded H^\infty-calculus on $Lp$-spaces by the…
Motivated by a problem stated by S.A.Argyros and Th. Raikoftsalis, we introduce a new class of Banach spaces. Namely, for a sequence of separable Banach spaces $(X_n,\|\cdot\|_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, we define the Bourgain Delbaen $\mathcal{L}^{\infty}$-sum of the sequence $(X_n,\|\cdot\|_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ which is a Banach space $\mathcal{Z}$ constructed with the Bourgain-Delbaen method. In particular, for every $1\leq p<\infty$, taking $X_n=\ell_p$ for every $n\in\mathbb{N}$ the aforementioned space $\mathcal{Z}_p$ is strictly quasi prime and admits $\ell_p$ as a complemented subspace. We s…
This paper generalizes the classical Sz.-Nagy--Foias $H^{\infty}(\mathbb{D})$ functional calculus for Hilbert space contractions. In particular, we replace the single contraction $T$ with a tuple $T=(T_1, \dots, T_d)$ of commuting bounded operators on a Hilbert space and replace $H^{\infty}(\mathbb{D})$ with a large class of multiplier algebras of Hilbert function spaces on the unit ball in $\mathbb C^d$.
The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the geometric difference sequence space $l_\infty^{G} (Δ_G)$ and prove that $l_\infty^{G} (Δ_{G})$ is a Banach space with respect to the norm $\left\|.\right\|^G_{Δ_G}.$ Also we compute the $α$-dual, $β$-dual and $γ$-dual spaces. Finally we obtain the Geometric Newton-Gregory interpolation formulae.
Let $(T_t)_{t \geq 0}$ be a markovian (resp. submarkovian) semigroup on some $σ$-finite measure space $(Ω,μ)$. We prove that its negative generator $A$ has a bounded $H^\infty(Σ_θ)$ calculus on the weighted space $L^2(Ω,wdμ)$ as long as the weight $w : Ω\to (0,\infty)$ has finite characteristic defined by $Q^A_2(w) = \sup_{t > 0} \left\| T_t(w) T_t \left(w^{-1} \right) \right\|_{L^\infty(Ω)}$ (resp. by a variant for submarkovian semigroups). Some additional technical conditions on the semigroup have to be imposed and their validity in examples is discussed. Any angle $θ> \fracπ{2}$ is admissib…
We derive conditions that ensure the existence of a bounded $H_\infty$-calculus in weighted $L_p$-Sobolev spaces for closed extensions $\underline{A}_T$ of a differential operator $A$ on a conic manifold with boundary, subject to differential boundary conditions $T$. In general, these conditions ask for a particular pseudodifferential structure of the resolvent $(λ-\underline{A}_T)^{-1}$ in a sector $Λ\subset\mathbf{C}$. In case of the minimal extension they reduce to parameter-ellipticity of the boundary value problem $(A,T)$. Examples concern the Dirichlet and Neumann Laplacians.
For a compact Hausdorff space $S$, we prove that the closed unit ball of a closed linear subalgebra of the space of real-valued continuous functions on $S$, denoted by $C(S)$, satisfies property-$(P_1)$ (the set-valued generalization of strong proximinality) for the non-empty closed bounded subsets of the bidual of $C(S)$. Various stability results related to property-$(P_1)$ and semi-continuity properties of restricted Chebyshev-center maps are also established. As a consequence, we derive that if $Y$ is a proximinal finite co-dimensional subspace of $c_0$ then the closed unit ball of $Y$ sat…
On a manifold $X$ with boundary and bounded geometry we consider a strongly elliptic second order operator $A$ together with a degenerate boundary operator $T$ of the form $T=φ_0γ_0 + φ_1γ_1$. Here $γ_0$ and $γ_1$ denote the evaluation of a function and its exterior normal derivative, respectively, at the boundary. We assume that $φ_0,φ_1\in C^{\infty}_b(\partial X)$, $φ_0,φ_1\ge 0$, and $φ_0+φ_1\geq c$, for some $c>0$. We also assume that the highest order coefficients of $A$ belong to $C^τ(X)$ for some $τ>0$ and the lower order coefficients are in $L_\infty(X)$. We show that the $L_p(X)$-rea…
We compare various functional calculus properties of Ritt operators. We show the existence of a Ritt operator T : X --> X on some Banach space X with the following property: T has a bounded $\H^\infty$ functional calculus with respect to the unit disc $\D$ (that is, T is polynomially bounded) but T does not have any bounded $\H^\infty$ functional calculus with respect to a Stolz domain of $\D$ with vertex at 1. Also we show that for an R-Ritt operator, the unconditional Ritt condition of Kalton-Portal is equivalent to the existence of a bounded $\H^\infty$ functional calculus with respect to s…
We study the functional calculus associated with a hypoelliptic left-invariant differential operator $\mathcal{L}$ on a connected and simply connected nilpotent Lie group $G$ with the aid of the corresponding \emph{Rockland} operator $\mathcal{L}_0$ on the `local' contraction $G_0$ of $G$, as well as of the corresponding Rockland operator $\mathcal{L}_\infty$ on the `global' contraction $G_\infty$ of $G$. We provide asymptotic estimates of the Riesz potentials associated with $\mathcal{L}$ at $0$ and at $\infty$, as well as of the kernels associated with functions of $\mathcal{L}$ satisfying M…
This paper is concerned with the isomorphic structure of the Banach space $\ell_\infty/c_0$ and how it depends on combinatorial tools whose existence is consistent but not provable from the usual axioms of ZFC. Our main global result is that it is consistent that $\ell_\infty/c_0$ does not have an orthogonal \break $\ell_\infty$-decomposition that is, it is not of the form $\ell_\infty(X)$ for any Banach space $X$. The main local result is that it is consistent that $\ell_\infty(c_0(\mathfrak{c}))$ does not embed isomorphically into $\ell_\infty/c_0$, where $\mathfrak{c}$ is the cardinality of…
We investigate the boundedness of the $H^\infty$-calculus by estimating the bound $b(\varepsilon)$ of the mapping $H^{\infty}\rightarrow \mathcal{B}(X)$: $f\mapsto f(A)T(\varepsilon)$ for $\varepsilon$ near zero. Here, $-A$ generates the analytic semigroup $T$ and $H^{\infty}$ is the space of bounded analytic functions on a domain strictly containing the spectrum of $A$. We show that $b(\varepsilon)=\mathcal{O}(|\log\varepsilon|)$ in general, whereas $b(\varepsilon)=\mathcal{O}(1)$ for bounded calculi. This generalizes a result by Vitse and complements work by Haase and Rozendaal for non-analy…
We prove that the Lipschitz-free space over a Banach space $X$ of density $κ$, denoted by $\mathcal{F}(X)$, is linearly isomorphic to its $\ell_1$-sum $\left(\bigoplus_κ\mathcal{F}(X)\right)_{\ell_1}$. This provides an extension of a previous result from Kaufmann in the context of non-separable Banach spaces. Further, we obtain a complete classification of the spaces of real-valued Lipschitz functions that vanish at $0$ over a $\mathcal{L}_p$-space. More precisely, we establish that, for every $1\leq p\leq \infty$, if $X$ is a $\mathcal{L}_p$-space of density $κ$, then $\mathrm{Lip}_0(X)$ is e…
In this paper, we present a new class of operators, which we name to be $n$-Ritt operators. This produces a discrete analogue of $n$-sectorial operators and generalizes the notion of Ritt operators. We develop a $H^\infty$-functional calculus for $n$-Ritt operators and prove an useful transference result. We also generalize the notions of quadratic functional calculus and $n$-$R$-Ritt operator and discuss some examples.
We prove that, if Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$ are $δ$-average rough, then their direct sum with respect to an absolute norm $N$ is $δ/N(1,1)$-average rough. In particular, for octahedral $X$ and $Y$ and for $p$ in $(1,\infty)$ the space $X\oplus_p Y$ is $2^{1-1/p}$-average rough, which is in general optimal. Another consequence is that for any $δ$ in $(1,2]$ there is a Banach space which is exactly $δ$-average rough. We give a complete characterization when an absolute sum of two Banach spaces is octahedral or has the strong diameter 2 property. However, among all of the absolute sums, the diame…
Let $X$ be a complex Banach space. The connection between algebra homomorphisms defined on subalgebras of the Banach algebra $\ell^{1}(\mathbb{N}_0)$ and the algebraic structure of Cesàro sums of a linear operator $T\in \mathcal{B}(X)$ is established. In particular, we show that every $(C, α)$-bounded operator $T$ induces - and is in fact characterized - by such an algebra homomorphism. Our method is based on some sequence kernels, Weyl fractional difference calculus and convolution Banach algebras that are introduced and deeply examined. To illustrate our results, improvements to bounds for A…
We prove spectral multiplier theorems for Hörmander classes $\mathcal{H}^α\_p$ for 0-sectorial operators A on Banach spaces assuming a bounded $H^\infty(Σ\_σ)$ calculus for some $σ\in (0,π)$ and norm and certain R-bounds on one of the following families of operators: the semigroup $e^{--zA}$ on $\mathbb{C}\_+$, the wave operators $e^{isA}$ for $s \in \mathbb{R}$, the resolvent $(λ-- A)^{-1}$ on $\mathbb{C} \backslash \mathbb{R}$, the imaginary powers $A^{it}$ for $t \in \mathbb{R}$ or the Bochner-Riesz means $(1-A/u)^α\_+$ for $u > 0.$ In contrast to the existing literature we neither assume t…
We give an alternate proof of one of the inequalities proved recently for martingales (=sums of martingale differences) in a non-commutative $L_p$-space, with $1<p<\infty$, by Q. Xu and the author. This new approach is restricted to $p$ an even integer, but it yields a constant which is $O(p)$ when $p\to \infty$ and it applies to a much more general kind of sums which we call $p$-orthogonal.
Let $X$ be a space of homogeneous type and let $L$ be a sectorial operator with bounded holomorphic functional calculus on $L^2(X)$. We assume that the semigroup $\{e^{-tL}\}_{t>0}$ satisfies Davies-Gaffney estimates. In this paper, we introduce a new type of paraproduct operators that is constructed via certain approximations of the identity associated to $L$. We show various boundedness properties on $L^p(X)$ and the recently developed Hardy and BMO spaces $H^p_L(X)$ and $BMO_L(X)$. In generalization of standard paraproducts constructed via convolution operators, we show $L^2(X)$ off-diagona…
Let $\{T_t\}_{t>0}$ be a strongly continuous semigroup of positive contractions on $L_p(X,μ)$ with $1<p<\infty$. Let $E$ be a UMD Banach lattice of measurable functions on another measure space $(Ω,ν)$. For $f\in L_p(X; E)$ define $$\mathcal M(f)(x, ω)=\sup_{t>0}\frac1t\Big|\int_0^tT_s(f(\cdot,ω))(x)ds\Big|,\quad (x,ω)\in X\timesΩ.$$ Then the following maximal ergodic inequality holds $$\big\|\mathcal M(f)\big\|_{L_p(X; E)}\lesssim \big\|f\big\|_{L_p(X; E)},\quad f\in L_p(X; E).$$ If the semigroup $\{T_t\}_{t>0}$ is additionally assumed to be analytic, then $\{T_t\}_{t>0}$ extends to an analyt…
We study the boundedness of the $H^{\infty}$ functional calculus for differential operators acting in (L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n};\mathbb{C}^{N})). For constant coefficients, we give simple conditions on the symbols implying such boundedness. For non-constant coefficients, we extend our recent results for the (L^p) theory of the Kato square root problem to the more general framework of Hodge-Dirac operators with variable coefficients (Π_B) as treated in (L^2(\mathbb{R}^{n};\mathbb{C}^{N})) by Axelsson, Keith, and McIntosh. We obtain a characterization of the property that (Π_B) has a bounded (H^{\in…
The simple Lévy Poisson process and scaled forms are explicitly constructed from partial sums of independent and identically distributed random variables and from sums of non-stationary independent random variables. For the latter, the weak limits are scaled Poisson processes. The method proposed here prepares generalizations to dependent data, to associated data in the first place.
We consider amalgamated direct sums (and their dual counterparts -- fibre products) of operator spaces and study their behaviour with respect to different quantisations (minimal and maximal). We show examples of amalgamated direct sums of two $L^{\infty}$-spaces over a common subspace that are not minimal themselves, thus answering a question posed by Vern Paulsen.
Our starting point is an improved version of a result of D. Hajela related to a question of Komlós: we show that if $f(n)$ is a function such that $\lim\limits_{n\to\infty }f(n)=\infty $ and $f(n)=o(n)$, there exists $n_0=n_0(f)$ such that for every $n\geqslant n_0$ and any $S\subseteq \{-1,1\}^n$ with cardinality $|S|\leqslant 2^{n/f(n)}$ one can find orthonormal vectors $x_1,\ldots ,x_n\in {\mathbb R}^n$ that satisfy $$\|ε_1x_1+\cdots +ε_nx_n\|_{\infty }\geqslant c\sqrt{\log f(n)}$$ for all $(ε_1,\ldots ,ε_n)\in S$. We obtain analogous results in the case where $x_1,\ldots ,x_n$ are independ…
