The approximation of Laplace-Stieltjes transforms with finite order
Journal of Inequalities and Applications volume 2017, Article number: 164 (2017)
Abstract
In this paper, we study the irregular growth of an entire function defined by the Laplace-Stieltjes transform of finite order convergent in the whole complex plane and obtain some results about λ-lower type. In addition, we also investigate the problem on the error in approximating entire functions defined by the Laplace-Stieltjes transforms. Some results about the irregular growth, the error, and the coefficients of Laplace-Stieltjes transforms are obtained; they are generalization and improvement of the previous conclusions given by Luo and Kong, Singhal and Srivastava.
1 Introduction
Dirichlet series
where
\(s=\sigma +it\) (σ, t are real variables), \(a_{n}\) are nonzero complex numbers. When \(a_{n}\), \(\lambda_{n}\), n satisfy some conditions, the series (1) is convergent in the whole plane or the half-plane, that is, \(f(s)\) is an analytic function or entire function in the whole plane or the half-plane. In the past few decades, many mathematicians studied the growth and value distribution of the analytic (entire) function defined by Dirichlet series and obtained lots of interesting results (see [1–9]).
As we know, Dirichlet series is regarded as a special example of the Laplace-Stieltjes transform. The Laplace-Stieltjes transform, named for Pierre-Simon Laplace and Thomas Joannes Stieltjes, is an integral transform similar to the Laplace transform. For real-valued functions, it is the Laplace transform of a Stieltjes measure, however it is often defined for functions with values in a Banach space. It can be used in many fields of mathematics, such as functional analysis, and certain areas of theoretical and applied probability.
For the Laplace-Stieltjes transforms,
where \(\alpha (x)\) is a bounded variation on any finite interval \([0,Y]\) (\(0< Y<+\infty\)), and σ and t are real variables. Let
where the sequence \(\{\lambda_{n}\}_{n=1}^{\infty }\) satisfies (2) and
In 1963, Yu [10] proved the Valiron-Knopp-Bohr formula of the associated abscissas of bounded convergence, absolute convergence, and uniform convergence of Laplace-Stieltjes.
Theorem A
Suppose that Laplace-Stieltjes transforms (3) satisfy (2), (4) and \(\limsup_{n\rightarrow +\infty }\frac{ \log n}{\lambda_{n}}<+\infty \), then
where \(\sigma_{u}^{F}\) is called the abscissa of uniform convergence of \(F(s)\).
Moreover, Yu [10] first introduced the maximal molecule \(M_{u}(\sigma ,G)\), the maximal term \(\mu (\sigma ,G)\) and the Borel line, and the order of analytic functions represented by Laplace-Stieltjes transforms convergent in the complex plane. After his works, considerable attention has been paid to the growth and value distribution of the functions represented by the Laplace-Stieltjes transform convergent in the half-plane or the whole complex plane in the field of complex analysis (see [11–15]).
In 2012, Luo and Kong [16] studied the following form of Laplace-Stieltjes transform:
where \(\alpha (x)\) is stated as in (3), and \(\{\lambda_{n}\}\) satisfies (2),(4). Set
By using the same argument as in [10], we can get a similar result about the abscissa of uniform convergence of \(F(s)\) easily. If
by (2), (4) and Theorem 1, one can get that \(\sigma_{u}^{F}=+\infty \), \(i.e\)., \(F(s)\) is an entire function.
Set
and
Since \(M(\sigma ,F)\) and \(M_{u}(\sigma ,F)\) tend to +∞ as \(\sigma \rightarrow +\infty \), in order to estimate the growth of \(F(s)\) more precisely, we will adapt some concepts of order, lower order, type, lower type as follows.
Definition 1.1
If Laplace-Stieltjes transform (5) satisfies \(\sigma_{u}^{F}=+\infty \) (the sequence \(\{\lambda_{n}\}\) satisfies (2), (4), and (6)) and
we call \(F(s)\) of order ρ in the whole plane, where \(\log^{+}x= \max \{\log x,0\}\). If \(\rho \in (0,+\infty )\), we say that \(F(s)\) is an entire function of finite order in the whole plane. Moreover, the lower order of \(F(s)\) is defined by
Remark 1.1
We say that \(F(s)\) is of the regular growth, when \(\rho =\lambda \), and \(F(s)\) is of the irregular growth, when \(\rho \neq \lambda \).
Definition 1.2
If Laplace-Stieltjes transform (5) satisfies \(\sigma_{u}^{F}=+\infty \) (the sequence \(\{\lambda_{n}\}\) satisfies (2), (4), and (6)) and is of order ρ (\(0<\rho <\infty\)), then we define the type and lower type of L-S transform \(F(s)\) as follows:
Remark 1.2
The purpose of the definition of type is to compare the growth of class functions which all have the same order. For example, let \(f(s)=e^{e ^{s}}\), \(g(s)=e^{e^{2s}}\), by a simple computation, we have \(\rho (f)=1= \rho (g)\), but \(T(f)=1\) and \(T(g)=\infty \). Thus, we can see that the growth of \(g(s)\) is faster than \(f(s)\) as \(\vert s \vert \rightarrow +\infty \).
2 Results and discussion
Recently, many people studied some problems on analytic functions defined by the Laplace-Stieltjes transforms and obtained a number of interesting results. Kong, Sun, Huo and Xu investigated the growth of analytic functions with kinds of order defined by the Laplace-Stieltjes transforms (see [16–22]), and Shang, Gao, and Sun investigated the value distribution of such functions (see [23–26]). From these references, we get the following results.
Theorem 2.1
If Laplace-Stieltjes transform (5) satisfies \(\sigma_{u}^{F}=+\infty \) (the sequence \(\{\lambda_{n}\}\) satisfies (2), (4), and (6)), and is of order ρ (\(0<\rho <\infty\)) and of type T, then
Furthermore, if \(F(s)\) is of the lower order λ and the lower type τ, and \(\lambda_{n}\sim \lambda_{n+1}\) and the function
forms a non-decreasing function of n for \(n>n_{0}\), then we have
From Definition 1.2, a natural question to ask is: What happened if \(e^{\sigma \rho }\) is replaced by \(e^{\lambda \sigma }\) in the definition of lower type when \(\rho \neq \lambda \)? We are going to consider this question.
Definition 2.1
If Laplace-Stieltjes transform (5) satisfies \(\sigma_{u}^{F}=+\infty \) (the sequence \(\{\lambda_{n}\}\) satisfies (2), (4), and (6)), and is of order ρ (\(0<\rho <\infty\)) and of the lower order λ (\(0<\lambda <\infty\)), if \(\lambda \neq \rho \), and
we say that \(\tau_{\lambda }\) is the λ-type of \(F(s)\).
Remark 2.1
Obviously, \(\tau_{\lambda }\geq \tau \) and \(\tau_{\lambda }=\tau \) as \(\rho =\lambda \). But we cannot confirm whether \(\tau_{\lambda } \geq T\) or \(\tau_{\lambda }\leq T\).
The following results are the main theorems of this paper.
Theorem 2.2
If Laplace-Stieltjes transform (5) satisfies \(\sigma_{u}^{F}=+\infty \) (the sequence \(\{\lambda_{n}\}\) satisfies (2), (4), and (6)), and is of order ρ and of the lower order λ, \(0\leq \lambda \neq \rho <\infty \), then we have
and
Theorem 2.3
If Laplace-Stieltjes transform (5) satisfies \(\sigma_{u}^{F}=+\infty \) (the sequence \(\{\lambda_{n}\}\) satisfies (2), (4), and (6)), and is of order ρ and of the lower order λ, \(0< \lambda \neq \rho <\infty \), type T, λ-type \(\tau_{\lambda }\),
and let
then we have
for almost all values of \(\sigma >\sigma_{0}\), where \(T'_{\rho }( \sigma )\) and \(T'_{\lambda }(\sigma )\) are the derivatives of \(T_{\rho }(\sigma )\) and \(T_{\lambda }(\sigma )\) with respect to σ.
Theorem 2.4
If Laplace-Stieltjes transform (5) satisfies \(\sigma_{u}^{F}=+\infty \) (the sequence \(\{\lambda_{n}\}\) satisfies (2), (4), and (6)), and is of the lower order λ (\(0\leq \lambda \neq \rho <\infty\)), if \(\lambda_{n}\sim \lambda_{n+1}\), then
Furthermore, there exists a positive integer \(n_{0}\) such that
forms a non-decreasing function of n for \(n>n_{0}\), then we have
We denote by \(\overline{L}_{\beta }\) the class of all the functions \(F(s)\) of the form (5) which are analytic in the half-plane \(\Re s<\beta\) (\(-\infty <\beta <\infty\)) and the sequence \(\{\lambda _{n}\}\) satisfies (2) and (4); and we denote by \(L_{\infty }\) the class of all the functions \(F(s)\) of the form (5) which are analytic in the half-plane \(\Re s<+\infty \) and the sequence \(\{\lambda_{n}\}\) satisfies (2), (4), and (6). Thus, if \(-\infty <\beta <+\infty \) and \(F(s) \in \overline{L}_{\beta }\), then \(F(s)\in L_{\infty }\). If Laplace-Stieltjes transform (5) \(A^{*}_{n}=0\) for \(n\geq k+1\) and \(A^{*}_{n}\neq 0\), then \(F(s)\) will be called an exponential polynomial of degree k usually denoted by \(p_{k}\), \(i.e\)., \(p_{k}(s)= \int^{\lambda_{k}}_{0}\exp (sy)\,d\alpha (y)\). When we choose a suitable function \(\alpha (y)\), the function \(p_{k}(s)\) may be reduced to a polynomial in terms of \(\exp (s\lambda_{i})\), that is, \(\sum_{i=1} ^{k}b_{i}\exp (s\lambda_{i})\).
For \(F(s)\in \overline{L}_{\beta }\), \(-\infty <\beta <+\infty \), we denote by \(E_{n}(F,\beta )\) the error in approximating the function \(F(s)\) by exponential polynomials of degree n in uniform norm as
where
In this paper, we will further investigate the relation between \(E_{n}(F,\beta )\) and the growth of an entire function defined by the L-S transform with irregular growth. It seems that this problem has never been treated before. Our main result is as follows.
Theorem 2.5
If the Laplace-Stieltjes transform \(F(s)\in L_{\infty }\) and is of lower order λ (\(0\leq \lambda \neq \rho <\infty\)), if \(\lambda_{n}\sim \lambda_{n+1}\), then for any real number \(-\infty < \beta <+\infty \), we have
Furthermore, there exists a positive integer \(n_{0}\) such that
forms a non-decreasing function of n for \(n>n_{0}\), then we have
i.e.,
3 Conclusions
From Theorems 2.2-2.5, we can see that the growth of Laplace-Stieltjes transforms is investigated under the assumption \(\rho \neq \lambda \), and that some theorems about the λ-lower type \(\tau_{\lambda }\), \(\lambda_{n}\), \(A_{n}^{*}\), and λ are obtained. In addition, we also study the problem on the error in approximating entire functions defined by the Laplace-Stieltjes transforms. This project is a new issue of Laplace-Stieltjes transforms in the field of complex analysis. Our results are generalization and improvement of the previous conclusions given by Luo and Kong [16, 27], Singhal and Srivastava [28].
4 Methods
4.1 Proofs of Theorems 2.2 and 2.3
To prove the above theorems, we require the following lemmas.
Lemma 4.1
see [27], Lemma 2.1
If the L-S transform \(F(s)\in L_{ \infty }\), for any \(\sigma (-\infty <\sigma <+\infty )\) and \(\varepsilon (>0)\), we have
where C is a constant.
Lemma 4.2
see [16], Lemma 2.2
If the L-S transform \(F(s)\in L_{ \infty }\), then we have
for \(\sigma_{0}>0\).
4.1.1 The proof of Theorem 2.2
Since \(\rho >\lambda >0\) and \(F(s)\) is of the lower order λ, that is,
for any small \(\varepsilon (0<\varepsilon <\rho -\lambda )\), it follows from (15) that there exists a constant \(\sigma_{0}\) such that, for \(\sigma >\sigma_{0}\),
and there exists a sequence \(\{\sigma_{k}\}\) tending to +∞ such that
Since \(0<\varepsilon <\rho -\lambda \), it follows from (16) and (17) that
From Lemmas 4.1 and 4.2, we have
and
Thus, similar to the process of (18), we can easily prove
Hence, this completes the proof of Theorem 2.2.
4.1.2 The proof of Theorem 2.3
From Lemma 4.2, it follows that
and
Dividing two sides of the equality in Lemma 4.2 by \(e^{\rho \sigma }\) and differentiating it with respect to σ, for almost all values \(\sigma >\sigma_{0}\), we have
On the basis of the assumptions of Theorem 2.3, taking lim sup in (21) when \(\sigma \rightarrow +\infty \), from Theorem 2.2 and (19), we get (9) easily.
Similarly, dividing two sides of the equality in Lemma 4.2 by \(e^{\lambda \sigma }\) and differentiating it with respect to σ, for almost all values \(\sigma >\sigma_{0}\),
On the basis of the assumptions of Theorem 2.3, taking lim inf in (22) when \(\sigma \rightarrow +\infty \), from Theorem 2.1 and (20), we get (10) easily.
Thus, this completes the proof of Theorem 2.3.
4.2 The proof of Theorem 2.4
Let
Thus, for any \(\varepsilon >0\), there exists an integer \(n_{0}(\varepsilon )\) such that, for \(n>n_{0}(\varepsilon )\),
By Lemma 4.1, it follows from (23) that for \(n>n_{0}(\varepsilon )\)
Let
and take
Then from (24) it follows
Since \(\lambda_{n}\sim \lambda_{n+1}\) and \(\lambda_{n}\rightarrow + \infty \) as \(n\rightarrow +\infty \), thus by a simple computation, from (25) we have \(\tau_{\lambda }\geq \vartheta \). When \(\vartheta =0\), \(\tau_{\lambda }\geq \vartheta \) is obvious; if \(\vartheta =\infty \), we also prove that \(\tau_{\lambda }\geq \vartheta \) by using the same argument as above. Hence we prove that (11) holds.
Let \(\mu (\sigma ,F)\) denote the maximum term for \(\Re s=\sigma\), \(- \infty < t<+\infty \). Since
forms a non-decreasing function of n for \(n>n_{0}\), then for \(\psi (n-1)\leq \sigma <\psi (n)\)
Since \(\tau_{\lambda }<\infty \), for any small \(\varepsilon >0\), it follows from (20) that
for \(\sigma >\sigma_{0}\) and all n such that \(\psi (n-1)\leq \sigma <\psi (n)\).
Let \(\Re s=\sigma >\sigma_{0}\) and \(A_{n_{1}}^{*}\exp (\sigma \lambda_{n_{1}})\) and \(A_{n_{2}}^{*}\exp (\sigma \lambda_{n_{2}})\) (\(n_{1}>n_{0}, \psi (n-1)>\sigma_{0}\)) be two consecutive maximum terms such that \(n_{2}-1\geq n_{1}\), it follows from (26) that
for all \(\sigma >\sigma_{0}\) satisfying \(\psi (n_{2}-1)\leq \sigma < \psi (n_{2})\). Let \(n_{1}\leq n\leq n_{2}-1\), then
and \(A_{n}^{*}\exp (\lambda_{n}\sigma )=A_{n_{2}}^{*}\exp (\lambda _{n_{2}}\sigma )\) for \(\sigma =\psi (n)\). Then there exists a positive integer \(n_{1}\) such that, for \(n>n_{1}\) and \(\sigma >\sigma_{0}\),
Since \(e^{x}\geq ex\) for any x, so it follows
Thus, for \(\varepsilon \rightarrow 0\) and \(n\rightarrow +\infty \), from (27) it follows
Hence, this proves that (12) holds.
4.3 The proof of Theorem 2.5
To prove this theorem, we require the following lemma.
Lemma 4.3
If the abscissa \(\sigma_{u}^{F}=+\infty \) of uniform convergence of the Laplace-Stieltjes transformation \(F(s)\) and sequence (2) satisfies (4), (6), then for any real number β, we have
where
Proof
Set
For any real number β, since
Set \(I_{j+k}(b;it)=\int_{\lambda_{j+k}}^{b}\exp \{ity\}\,d\alpha (y)\), \((\lambda_{j+k}< b\leq \lambda_{j+k+1})\), then we have \(\vert I_{j+k}(b;it) \vert \leq A_{j+k}^{*}\). Thus, it follows
When \(n\rightarrow +\infty \), we have \(b\rightarrow +\infty \), thus we have
□
Now, we are going to prove Theorem 2.5.
4.4 The proof of Theorem 2.5
Let
Then, for any small \(\varepsilon >0\), there exists an integer \(n_{0}(\varepsilon )\) such that, for any \(n>n_{0}(\varepsilon )\),
Since \(F(s)\in L_{\infty }\), thus for any constant β (\(-\infty <\beta <+\infty\)), we have \(F(s)\in \overline{L}_{\beta }\). For \(\beta <\sigma <+\infty \). It follows from the definitions of \(E_{n}(F,\beta )\) and \(p_{n}\) that
Thus, from the definition of \(A_{n}^{*}\) and \(M_{u}(\sigma ,F)\), and by Lemma 4.1, we have \(A_{n}^{*}\leq 2 M_{u}(\sigma ,F)e^{-\sigma \lambda _{n}}\) for any σ (\(\beta <\sigma <+\infty\)). It follows from (30) and Lemma 4.3 that
From (4), take \(h'\) (\(0< h'< h\)) such that \((\lambda_{n+1} -\lambda_{n}) \geq h'\) for \(n\geq 0\). Then, for \(\sigma \geq \frac{\beta }{2}\), it follows from (31) that
that is,
where K is a constant. Let
Thus, from (29) and (32), it follows that for \(n>n_{0}(\varepsilon )\)
By using the same argument as in Theorem 2.4, we can easily prove that \(\tau_{\lambda }\geq \vartheta_{1}\).
From the proof of Theorem 2.4, we have that there exists a positive integer \(n_{1}\) such that
for \(n>n_{1}\) and \(\sigma >\sigma_{0}\). Since for any \(\beta <+\infty \), from the definition of \(E_{k}(F,\beta )\), there exists \(p_{1} \in \Pi_{n-1}\) such that
And since
thus for any \(p\in \Pi_{n-1}\), it follows
Hence from (34) and (35), for any \(\beta <+\infty \) and \(F(s)\in L _{\infty }\), we have
Since \(e^{x}\geq ex\) for any x, so it follows
Thus, for \(\varepsilon \rightarrow 0\) and \(n\rightarrow +\infty \), from (36) it follows
Since \([E_{n-1}(F,\beta )\exp (-\beta \lambda_{n})]^{\frac{\lambda }{ \lambda_{n}}}=[E_{n-1}(F,\beta )]^{\frac{\lambda }{\lambda_{n}}} \exp (-\beta \lambda )\), then (14) follows.
Therefore, we complete the proof of Theorem 2.5.
4.5 Remarks
From the proof of Theorem 2.5, and combining those results of the Laplace-Stieltjes transforms in Ref. [14, 16, 27], we can obtain the following results on the approximation of Laplace-Stieltjes transforms, which can be found partly in [28].
Theorem 4.1
If the L-S transform \(F(s)\in L_{\infty }\) and is of order ρ (\(0<\rho <\infty\)) and of type T, then for any real number \(-\infty < \beta <+\infty \), we have
and
Furthermore, if \(F(s)\) is of the lower order λ and the lower type τ, and \(\lambda_{n}\sim \lambda_{n+1}\) and the function
forms a non-decreasing function of n for \(n>n_{0}\), then we have
Theorem 4.2
If the L-S transform \(F(s)\in L_{\infty }\), then for any real number \(-\infty <\beta <+\infty \). For \(p=1\), we have
and for \(p=2,3,\ldots \) , we have
where \(h(x)\) satisfies the following conditions:
-
(i)
\(h(x)\) is defined on \([a,+\infty )\) and is positive, strictly increasing, differentiable and tends to +∞ as \(x\rightarrow + \infty \);
-
(ii)
\(\lim_{x\rightarrow +\infty } \frac{d(h(x))}{d(\log^{[p]}x)}=k\in (0,+\infty )\), \(p\geq 1, p\in \mathbb{N}^{+}\), where \(\log^{[0]}x=x, \log^{[1]}x=\log x\) and \(\log^{[p]}x=\log (\log^{[p-1]}x)\).
