As a direct consequence of Theorem 3.3.1, the following conclusion supplies us with a surprising reason why log(1- z) lies in each Qw Corollary 3.3.1.

and so f E Qq, thanks to the proof of Theorem 1.2.1 (i). Since the spaces A(p, 1/p) are monotonically increasing (see also Corollary A(p, 1/p) for p = 3, 4, · · ·.

Thus, supn IIL.\nfllp2nfp = oo and hence f A(p, 1/p), by Theorem 3.1 in [35). The construction. Let r 1, r2, · · · , be an enumeration of the pairs { (p, m) : p = 3, 4, ···;mEN}.

But the existence of fi follows immediately from the density of polynomials in the Hardy space HP and HP ~ H 2, p > 2. The proof of the theorem is completed.

The spaces Bp are the so-called Besov spaces. It is well known that every Bp is conformally invariant according to II/ o ai!Bp = II!IIBp for all f E Bp and a E Aut(D). Of course, it becomes a natural topic to compare QP with Bp.

due to Jensen's inequality. Now it is easy to show by differentiation that t - {3 ";?: (t/ (3)!3- 1 holds for t ";?: 0 and f3 E (0, 1). Thus the inequality E(min{1, 'l/J}) ~ E ('l/J) follows from t = '1/JdJ-L and f3 =a. The proof for the other inequality in (5.5) can be given similarly with A replaced by X \ A and a by 1 - a.

Theorem 5.4.2. Let p E (0, 1). Then every function in QP is the quotient of two functions in H(X) n QP. Proof. The proof relies upon the constructions of two cut-off outer functions attached to a given outer function. To this end, suppose that f E QP is such that f ¢= 0 (otherwise there is nothing to argue). Let BO be the inner-outer factorization off as in Theorem 5.4.1. In particular,
O(z)
= 17exp
(l ~ ~: Iog(IO{()I)I~~I),
where 'fJ E T and zED. This outer factor 0 is equipped with two cut-off outer functions below:
O+(z) = Jfiexp
(l ~ ~; log(max{IO(()I, 1}) 1~1)
= Jfiexp
(l ~ ~: log{min{IO{()I, 1}) ~~~~).
and
O_(z)
It is clear that 0_ and 1/0+ lie in H(X). A key observation is that 0 = 0+0_, IO-(z)l ~ IO(z)l and IO+(z)l ~ 1 for all zED. For convenience, we put
E(,P, z) = l 1/Jd!-'z- exp (l!og,Pdl-'z) , where 'l/J > 0 a.e on T and '1/J,log'l/J E L 1 (T). Since J-lz is a probability measure on T, Lemma 5.4.1 shows
Notice that f can be rewritten as BO+O- = (BO_)j(1f0+)· Accordingly, it suffices to verify that both g = BO_ and h = 1/0+ are members of QP. On the one hand, hE QP is obvious. As a matter of fact, owing to h' = -O+JO~, IO+I ~ 1 and

it follows from Theorems 5.3.1 and 5.3.2 that 0+ E QP and hence hE QP. On the other hand, g E QP comes from Theorems 5.3.1 and 5.3.2 as well as the estimates below:

Notes 5.1 The first section of Chapter 5 is from Essen-Xiao (63]. For a result analogous to Theorem 5.1.1, we refer to Verbitskii [125, Lemma 2.2] which was proved by using HOlder's inequality. For an inner function B, the quotient (1-IB'(z)j 2 )/(1lzl2) has an operator-theoretic explanation. Let kw(z) = (1- lwl 2 ) 112 /(1- wz) be the normalized reproducing kernel of the Hardy space H 2 with respect to w E D. If C8 denotes the adjoint of the composition operator CB with the symbol B, then IIC8kwll~2 = (1-lwl 2 )/(1 -IB'(w)l 2 ) holds for every inner function B. For a proof, see also Shapiro [110, p.43-44].
5.2 Theorem 5.2.1 is one of the main results in Essen-Xiao [63]. As one of its consequences, it was proved by Nicolau-Xiao [95] that any Blaschke product in QP has small mean variation on many subarcs ofT. That is to say, if BE QP is a Blaschke product with {zn} and Lr ={zED: infnlcrz(zn)l2:: r}, r E (0,1), then lim sup 111-p { IB'(z)l 2 (1-lzi 2 )P1L)z)dm(z) = 0. r-+l /~T j S(I) Moreover, Resendis and Tovar [104] showed that if subordinated, i.e.,

then JL{zn},p is a p-Carleson measure. So, the criterion in Theorem 5.2.1 may be checked by using some appropriate requirements only on the distribution of {zn}· For more information, see Resendis-Tovar [104], Danikas-Mouratides [46] and Aulaskari-Wulan-Zhao [26]. The characterization of the inner functions in Vp, p E [0, 1) (in terms of the zero distribution of such functions) can be found in Ahern [2] and Carleson [37].

z(Cf)'(z) = f(z) - {1 f(tz) dt. } 0 1- tz 1- z See Essen-Xiao [63, Theorem 5.4], as well as Danikas-Siskakis [48] for BMOA. For more information about the Cesaro operators acting on different holomorphic function spaces, we refer to Siskakis [111] and Benke-Chang [31]. 5.3 The third section of Chapter 5 is from Xiao's paper [134] (see also Xiao [138] for meromorphic case). Notice that f E BMOA if and only iff = BO, where B is an inner function and () is an outer function in BMOA for which IO(z)l 2 (1 -IB(z)l 2 ) is bounded on D. This result is due to Dyakonov [55]. Theorem 5.3.1 is important since it gives a way to recognize QP, p E (0, 1) via BMOA. This theorem can be used to study some isoperimetric inequalities involved in Qp; see the paper [23] of Aulaskari, Perez-Gonzalez and Wulan. In particular, iff EBMOA has a hyperbolic image region: fl = f(D) for which the Green function is denoted by gn(·, ·), then the condition
sup { ( { gn(u, f(z))dm(u)) (1-luw(z)I 2 )Pd.A(z) wEDjD

implies f E QP, p E (0, 1). Its converse is valid for every universal covering map. In case of BMOA, we refer to Metzger's paper (91] as well as Gotoh's preprint (72]. Regarding the Q classes on Riemann surfaces, we refer the interested reader to Aulaskari-He-Ristioja-Zhao (19], Aulaskari-Chen [14] and references therein. 5.4 With regard to the last section of Chapter 5, we mention that all Vp, p E [0, 1), have analogous results, see Aleman [5] and Dyakonov (54]. Theorem 5.4.2 depends on Lemma 5.4.1. But, the known fact that any BMOA-function equals the ratio of two functions in H 00 can be also worked out from the corresponding decomposition of the Nevanlinna functions {50]).
6. Pseudo-holomorphic Extension
In this chapter we first give a full boundary value description that f is in QP, p E (0, 1), and secondly provide a characterization of QP via the pseudo-holomorphic extension and, as a corollary, we prove that QP has the K-property. The latter means that, for any 'ljJ E H 00 , the Toeplitz operator T-~[J maps QP into itself.
6.1 Boundary Value Behavior A good way to know much more information about QP is to find out how a Qpfunction behaves on T. To understand this view-point, we, from now on, assume that for p > 0 and an arc I ~ T, pi denotes the subarc of T with the same center as I and with the arclength pill, but also we need a description of the boundary value functions of elements in Vp. · Lemma 6.1.1. Let p E (0, 1) and f E H 2. Then f E Vp if and only if

so that Lemma 6.1.1 follows. By Lemma 6.1.1 and Theorem 1.1.1 we obtain a characterization of the boundary function off in QP. Theorem 6.1.1. Let p E (0, 1) and let f E H 2 • Then f E QP if and only if

If I-/= T, then we choose a point wED\ {0} such that w/lwl and 211"(1-lwl) are the center and arclength of I, respectively. If I= T, then we take w = 0. With such a point w, as well as the inequality cost ;:::: 1 - 2- 1 t 2 for t E ( -oo, oo), we get that for u E I,

In = 2n I~,
n = 0, 1, ... , N- 1,
where N is the smallest integer such that 2NIIwl ;:::: 211". And then, we put IN= T. Through the help of the elementary inequality cost ~ 1 - 21r- 2 t 2 for t E [-1r, 1r], we know that for every point u E T, 1

6.2 Weight Condition By a careful checking with Theorem 1.1.1 and its proof, we find that the weight (1-law(z) I2 )P can be replaced by its reflection (law(z)l- 2 -1)P in case p E (0, 1). More precisely, we have the following theorem.

and the operator K : f -+ K f is called a Calder6n-Zygmund operator. The well known result on the boundedness (cf. (44] for example) of Calder6nZygmund operator is to say that if w is an A 2-weight with A 2 (w) :::5 C and if Q satisfies also a "Dini-type" condition, i.e.,

Theorem 6.3.1. Let p E (0, 1) and f E nqE(O,oo)Hq. Then f E QP if and only if there exists a function F E C 1 (Dc) satisfying: (i) F(z) = 0(1) as z-+ oo, (ii) limr~l+ F(r() = f(() a.e. on T and in Lq(T) for all q E [l,oo),

Proof. Necessity: let f E QP, then we show that the above F exists. Set F(z) = f(z*) for z E Dc. It is clear that F is C 1 on Dc and satisfies (i) and (ii). Now letting w E D, making the change of variables z = u* in the integral which appears in (iii) and noticing that I8F(z)j8zl = lf'(z*)llz*l 2 , we obtain

Then (iii) follows from Theorem 6.2.1. Sufficiency: suppose that there is an F E C 1 (Dc) such that the above conditions (i), (ii) and (iii) hold, we verify f E QP. Fix z E D and R > 1. In view of (ii), the Cauchy-Green formula applied to the function that equals f in D and Fin Dc gives

Before reaching the main result of this section, we need another lemma which says that some p-Carleson measures are stable under a special integral operator.

If dJ-1-(z) = lf(z)l 2(1 - lzl 2)Pdm(z) is a p-Carleson measure, then dv(z) = l(Tf)(z)l 2(1-lzl 2)Pdm(z) is also a p-Carleson measure. Proof. For the Carleson box S (I), we have v(S(I)) =

These estimates on I nt 3 and I nt 4 imply that v is a p-Carleson measure. Theorem 7.2.1. Let p E (0, 1). If lg(z)l 2 (1-lzi 2 )Pdm(z) is a p-Carleson measure, then there is a function f defined on D such that

f belongs to Qp(T) n L (T). 00
Proof. By the hypothesis of Theorem 7.2.1 and the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, gdm is a 1-Carleson measure. Thus, by Lemma 7.2.1, the function f = So(Jt) (where d~t = gdm) is defined on D. More importantly, the function f = So(Jt) satisfies the equation 8j /8z = g on D. Furthermore, the boundary value function

It is enough to deal with an equation 8b/8z = h, where b = bj,k and h = hj8hk/8z. Because each gk is in QP n H 00 , lg~(z)l 2 (1-lzi 2 )Pdm(z) is a p-Carleson measure. Also because of
lh(z)l 2 (1 - lzi 2 )Pdm(z) is a p-Carleson measure.

7.5 Interpolating Sequences In order to solve the interpolation problem for QP n H 00 , we pause briefly to work with Khinchin's inequality. Given finitely many complex numbers a 1 , ···,an, consider the 2n possible sums LJ=l ±aj obtained as the plus-minus signs vary in the 2n possible ways. For q > 0 let
denote the average value of I LJ=l ±ajlq over the 2n choices of sign. The following lemma is a special case of the so-called Khinchin's inequality. Lemma 7.5.1. Let q E (0, 2]. Then
(7.9) Proof. The proof is from Garnett's book [66, p.302], but we include the proof for completeness. Let n EN and [l be the set of 2n points w = (wb w2, · · ·, wn), where Wj = ±1. Define the probability f.J, on [l so that each point w has probability 2n. Also define X(w) = Ej= 1 ajWj· Then X(w) is a more rigorous expression for E ±aj, and by definition
Meanwhile, let Xj(w) = Wj, j = 1, 2, · · ·, n. Then IXj(w)l 2 = 1 and for j =F k, £(XjXk) = 0 since XjXk takes each value ±1 with probability 1/2. This means that {Xb X2 , • · ·, Xn} are orthonormal in L 2 (f.J,). Because X= Ej= 1 ajXj and because q E (0, 2], Holder's inequality implies ·
7.5 Interpolating Sequences

A sequence {Zn} C D is called an interpolating sequence for QP n H 00 if for each bounded sequence {Wn} C C there exists a function f E QP n H 00 such that f(zn) = Wn for all n E N. With Lemma 7.5.1, we can establish the following theorem.
Theorem 7.5.1. Let p E (0, 1). Then a sequence {zn} CD is an interpolating sequence for Qp n H 00 if and only if {Zn} is separated, i.e.
·rlzn-Zml
0 m >, m#n 1- ZnZm
and at the same time dJl-{zn},p = En(l-lzni 2 )P8zn is a p-Carleson measure. Proof. The part of necessity combines Khinchin's inequality and a reproducing formula for Vp, p > 0. The reproducing formula of Rochberg and Wu (105] asserts that for f E Vp, one has f(z) = f(O)

Now assume that { zn} is an interpolating sequence for QP n H 00 • Then for €~) = ±1, j = 1, · · ·, 2n, k = 1, · · ·, n, there are fi E QP n H 00 such that fi(zk) = f~), k = 1, ···,nand llhiiH= + lllhiiiQP ~ 1. Applying (7.10) to fi oaw at aw(zk) we get

we may compute the expectation of both sides of this equality. Observe that by (7.9) with q = 1 we find
In the meantime, applying the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, Lemma 1.4.1 and (7.9) with q = 2, we get
£(T2) ::; sup II! o crwllvv j
So, the estimates involving £(Tl) and £(T2 ) indicate that the second condition of Theorem 7.5.1 holds. Since {zn} is also an interpolating sequence for H 00 , the first condition holds as well. To demonstrate the part of sufficiency we suppose that { zn} satisfies the above assumption. By the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality we see that Ln (1 2 lznl )8zn is a 1-Carleson measure and then by the argument in [66, p. 287] that { Zn} is uniformly separated, namely,

for 'Y = 1/(2log(e/7J2 )). It is clear that f E H 00 and f(zn) = Wn for n EN. However, what we want is: f E QP. As in the proof of Theorem 7.2.1, we consider
then f(() = B(()F(() for ( E T, where

and so that IG(z)l 2 (1- lzi 2)Pdm(z) is a p-Carleson measure. Employing (7.11) and Lemma 7.2.2 we finally obtain that IV'F(z)l 2(1-lzi 2)Pdm(z) is a p-Carleson measure. Therefore, the proof is complete.
Notes 7.1 Lemma 7.1.1 is from Stegenga (117]. Theorem 7.1.1 gives another proof for Theorem 6.1.1. The equivalences among (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of Theorem 7.1.1 are from the papers of Nicolau-Xiao [95] and Xiao (136], respectively. In fact,
86

For some relations between BMO(T) and the Sobolev spaces, we refer to Strichartz (120].
7.2 Lemma 7.2.2 and Theorem 7.2.1 are also from [95]. Lemma 7.2.2 has been employed by Suarez to study meromorphic functions [123]. 7.3 The results in Sections 7.3 and their proofs can be found in (95]. Note that the argument for Theorem 7.3.3 does not require the predual of QP' At this point, QP is different from BMOA. Nevertheless, it would be interesting to characterize the predual of QP for each p E (0, 1).
7.4 Theorems 7.4.2 and 7.4.3 are in Xiao [135]. Observe that only necessity of Theorem 7.4.1 is useful in the proof of Theorem 7.4.2. So, these theorems have been reasonably generalized by Andersson and Carlsson to the Q spaces over strongly pseudoconvex domains of en; see [9]. However, it would be interesting to give a full description of M(Qp), p E (0, 1), since the cases p ~ 1 have been figured out by Stegenga [116], Ortega-Fabrega [96] and Brown-Shields [36], respectively. Theorem 7.4.3 is available for the cases p = 0 and p ~ 1; see Nicolau (94] and Ortega-Fabrega (96],[97]. 7.5 Concerning Theorem 7.5.1 (cf. [95]), we would like to point out that Earl's constructive solution (58] for H 00 -interpolation may be modified to prove the sufficiency part of Theorem 7.5.1. In fact, Earl's construction indicates that when { Zn} is an interpolating sequence for QP n H 00 there exist interpolating functions of the form KB(z), where K is a constant and B(z) is a Blaschke product. The Blaschke product B(z) has simple zeros {(n} which are hyperbolically very close to the {Zn}. It follows that {(n} is also an interpolating sequence for QP n H 00 • Another proof involved in 8-techniques is presented in (95].
8. Dyadic Localization
This chapter contains a local analysis of QP (T) based on the dyadic portions. First of all, we give an alternate characterization of QP in terms of the square mean oscillations over successive bipartitions of arcs in T. Next, we consider the dyadic counterpart Q~(T) of Qp(T), in particular, we show that f E Qp(T) if and only if (almost) all its translates belong to Q~(T); conversely, functions in Qp(T) may be obtained by averaging translates of functions in Qp(T). Finally, as a natural application of the dyadic model of QP (T), we present a wavelet expansion theorem of QP (T).
8.1 Square Mean Oscillation From now on, using the map: t---+ e21rit, we identify T with the unit interval [0, 1), where subintervals may wrap around 0. Meanwhile, a subarc ofT corresponds to a subinterval of (0, 1). A dyadic interval is an interval of the type: [m2-n, (m + 1)2-n), n E N U {0}, k = 0, 1, · · ·, 2n - 1. Denote by I the set of all dyadic subintervals ofT (including T itself), and let In, n EN U {0} be the set of the 2n dyadic intervals of length 2-n. Similarly, if I ~ T is any interval, dyadic or not, we let In(I), n E N U {0}, denote the set of the 2n subintervals of length 2-niii obtained by n successive bipartition of I. Of course, III still denotes the length of interval I ~ T. For the sake of simplicity, we rewrite, for any interval I ~ T and an £ 2 (I) function j,
f(I) =!I=
l~l ~ f(x)dx,
the mean of f on I, and define
ifJJ(I) =
l~l ~ lf(x)- f(I)I 2 dx,
the square mean oscillation of f on I. Obviously, ifJt(I) < oo if and only if f E L2 (I); we may extend the definition to all measurable functions f on I by letting ifJt(I) = oo when f tt L 2 (I). Recall that f E BMO(T) if and only if sup 1 ifJt(I) < oo, where the supremum is taken over all intervals in T. Moreover, the forthcoming two identities are easily verified.

It is easily seen that the final integral, for each J, equals IJI - lx- Yl 2:: III/2, and thus the sum over J is at least IJI/2, and (8.11) holds for lx- Yl :::; III/2. Finally, if x, y E I with lx- Yl > III/2, then, by (8.10),
aq(x, y) 2:: 2-1111-2 ~ III-Pix- Ylp-2 and (8.11) holds in this case too. To produce a full converse to the inequality in Lemma 8.1.2, we still need two more lemmas, which may also have independent interest.
Lemma 8.1.4. Let p E (0, 1). Let I, I', I" ~ T be three intervals of equal size: III = II' I = II" I, such that I' and I" are adjacent and I~ I' U I''. Then, for any

Because g = htdt and (tfJJ,p{I)) 112 may be regarded as an £ 2 -norm, we may use Minkowski's inequality to obtain
So, it follows from Holder's inequality and choosing r E (1, oo) with 1/r+1/q = 1 that
(tJ!g,p(I)) 112 ::$ llm(t) ll£r(T) IIFIILq(Q~) · By Lemma 8.2.1, this shows that tfJ9 ,p(I) is uniformly bounded when I~ Tis an interval of dyadic length :::; 1/2. The case I= T (which may be written as [0, 2- 1 ) U [2- 1 , 1)) follows easily, and thus g E Qp(T) by Corollary 8.1.1. Once we introduce the linear operator: (Tf)(t,x) = f(x- t) (mapping functions on T to functions on T x T), we have the following result. Corollary 8.2.3. Let p E (0, 1) and q E (1, oo). Then (i) Qp(T) is isomorphic to the complemented subspace T(Qp(T)) of Lq(Q~). (ii) The adjoint operator T* ofT maps Lq(Q~) onto Qp(T).
Proof. Since T* is given by
T* F(x) =
l
F(t,x + t)dt,
T*T is the identity and TT* is a projection. This, together with Theorem 8.2.6 implies Corollary 8.2.3.

8.3 Wavelets The purpose of this section is to show that the well known characterization of BMO(T) by means of a periodic wavelet basis can be extended to Qp(T). We start with recalling the Haar system on T. In this section, let H denote the Haar function:
1, t E (0, 1/2), -1, t E [1/2, 1), { 0, otherwise.
H(t) =
For j E N U {0} and k = 0, 1, · · ·, 2i -1 and define hj,k(t) = 2i/ 2 H(2it- k) I[O,l). Set also ho,o(t) = 1. The system {hj,k} is called the Haar system on T, and forms a complete orthonormal basis in L 2 (T). More precisely (cf. [65]), if Ij,k = [k2-j, (k + 1)2-i) is a dyadic interval in [0, 1), and if 2j-1

is an approximation off at the resolution 2-j, then it follows immediately from the Lebesgue differentiation theorem that limj-+oo fi(x) = f(x) a.e. on [0, 1). Thus, for almost every x E [0, 1), 00
f(x) = fo(x)

L (fi+l (x) -fi(x)). j=O
However a simple argument shows 2j-1

where (f, g) means the usual inner product 00
f = f(T)

which shows that the Haar system represents f a. e. on T, as well as in £ 2 (T). In what follows, as to A= (j, k) we write the shorter notation hj,k ash>. and denote by!(>..) the dyadic interval {t: 2it- k E [0, 1)}. Moreover, for IE I, a sequence a= {a(>..)}, and q E (0, 1], let

It follows by the definition of WJ,p(I) and Lemma 8.3.1 that tPJ,p(I) ~ Ta,p(I), and the result follows by Theorem 8.2.1. This simple theorem suggests us to consider the wavelet bases. Recall that a wavelet is a function l]! E L 2 (R) such that the family of functions Wj,k(x) = 2il 2 w(2ix- k) where j and k range over Z (the set of all integers), is an orthonormal basis in L 2 (R). For such a family, let
100
8. Dyadic Localization
'!f;j,k(x) = l:wj,k(x + l). lEZ
Then each '!f;j,k is a function on T (i.e., a 1-periodic function on R). Moreover, '!f;j,k(x) = '!f;j,k+ 2i (x) and '!f;j,k+l (x) = '!f;j,k(x + 2-i). In particular, there exists a l/1 so that {1} U {'!f;j,k} (j = 0, 1, 2, · · ·; k = 0, 1, 2, · · ·, 2i- 1) is a complete orthonormal basis in L 2 (T), viz., the 1-periodic wavelet basis. For convenience, we will write the shorter notation '!f;j,k as 'lj;>.., where A= (j, k). And for simplicity we consider only "good" wavelets, and thus suppose that each l/1 satisfies max{ll/l(x)l, ll/l'(x)l} :j (1 + lxl)- 2, x E R; but also l/1 has a compact support so that the support set of each '!f;>. obeys: supp'!f;>. ~ ml(.X), where m is a constant (fixed throughout the rest part of this section). For these, we refer to Meyer [92, Section 11 in Chapter 3] and Wojtaszczyk [130, Section 2.5]. Observe that the wavelet coefficients b = {b(.X)} of a BMO(T)-function are entirely controlled by sup lEI Tb,l (I) < oo [92, p.162]. This can be extended to Qp(T) as follows. Theorem 8.3.2. Let p E (0, 1). Iff E Qp(T), then the sequence b = {b(.X)} of its wavelet coefficients:
b(.X)
= (f, '!f;>.) =
l
f(x)'!f;>.(x) dx,
satisfies
sup Tb,p(I)
< oo.

Conversely, every sequence b = {b(.X)} satisfying {8.20} is the sequence of wavelet coefficients of a unique f E Qp(T). Proof. First, let

= fl + f2 + j3.
Since supp'!f;>. ~ ml(.X), (h, '!f;>.) = 0 if J(.X) ~ J. On the other hand, the integral of each wavelet 'l/J>. is zero. So (j, '!f;>.) = (h, '!f;>.), and, by (8.2) one has
