Abstract

Let α be the modified Hankel transform α(f,x)=0Jα(xt)(xt)αf(t)t2α+1dt, defined for suitable functions and extended to some Lp((0,),x2α+1) spaces. Given δ>0, let Mαδ be the Bochner–Riesz operator for the Hankel transform. Also, we take the following generalization αk(f,x)=0Jα+k(xt)(xt)αf(t)t2α+1dt,k=0,1,2 for the Hankel transform, and define Mα,kδ as Mα,kδf=αk((1x2)+δαkf),k=0,1,2, (thus, in particular, Mαδ=Mα,0δ). In the paper, we study the uniform boundedness of {Mα,kδ}kN in Lp((0,),x2α+1) spaces when α0. We found that, for δ>(2α+1)/2 (the critical index), the uniform boundedness of {Mα,kδ}k=0 is satisfied for every p in the range 1p. And, for 0<δ(2α+1)/2 the uniform boundedness happens if and only if 4(α+1)2α+3+2δ<p<4(α+1)2α+12δ. In the paper, the case δ=0 (the corresponding generalization of the χ[0,1]-multiplier for the Hankel transform) is previously analyzed; here, for α>1. For this value of δ, the uniform boundedness of {Mα,k0}k=0 is related to the convergence of Fourier–Neumann series.
