Variational Inequalities For The Differences Of Averages Over Lacunary Sequences (2203.02154v4)

Abstract: Let $f$ be a locally integrable function defined on $\mathbb{R}$, and let $(n_k)$ be a lacunary sequence. Define the operator $A_{n_k}$ by $$A_{n_k}f(x)=\frac{1}{n_k}\int_0^{n_k}f(x-t)\, dt.$$ We prove various types of new inequalities for the variation operator $$\mathcal{V}sf(x)=\left(\sum{k=1}^\infty|A_{n_k}f(x)-A_{n_{k-1}}f(x)|^s\right)^{1/s}$$ when $2\leq s<\infty$.
