Abstract

Ap-Helson set is defined to be a closed subsetE of the circle groupT with the property that every continuous function onE can be extended to the full circle in such a way that this extension has its sequence of Fourier coefficients inl p. For 1<p<2, the union of two such sets is again ap-Helson set. It is shown that thep-Helson sets (p>1) differ from the Helson sets and also that the notion really depends on the indexp. An analogue of H. Helson’s result is given: ap-Helson set supports no nonzero measure with Fourier-Stieltjes transform inl q, 1/p+1/q=1.
