Pointwise And Uniform Convergence Of Fourier Series On Su(2), Donald Forrest Myers
Pointwise And Uniform Convergence Of Fourier Series On Su(2), Donald Forrest Myers
Doctoral Dissertations
"Let f be a Lipschitz function on the special unitary group SU (2). We prove that the Fourier partial sums of f converge to f uniformly on SU (2), thereby extending theorems of Caccioppoli, Mayer, and a special case of Ragozin. Pointwise convergence theorems for the Fourier series of functions on SU (2), due to Liu and Qian, were obtained by Clifford algebra techniques. We obtain similar versions of these theorems using simpler proof techniques: classical harmonic analysis and group theory"--Abstract, page iii.
