Title: Remarks on a theorem of Zygmund (In English)
Source: Proc. Lond. Math. Soc., III. Ser. 14 A, 81-85 (1965).
Review: We call a sequence of integers n1 < n2 < ··· a Zygmund sequence if whenever |ak| ––> 0, the power series sumk = 1oo ak znk converges for at least one z with |z| = 1. It is known that any sequence {nk} satisfying nk+1/nk > 1+c (c > 0) is a Zygmund sequence, and that a Zygmund sequence con not contain arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions [cf. J.-P. Kahane (Zbl 121.30102)]. The author shows the following: Let n1 < n2 < ··· be a sequence which contains two subsequences {nki} and {nli}, 1 \leq i < oo, satisfying
ki ––> oo, ki < li < ki+1, li-ki ––> oo , (nli-nki)1/(li-ki) ––> 1. Then the above sequences is not a Zygmund sequence.
