The main result of this paper is an intersection representation for a class of anisotropic vector-valued function spaces in an axiomatic setting `a la Hedberg$&$Netrusov, which includes weighted anisotropic mixed-norm Besov and Lizorkin-Triebel spaces. In the special case of the classical Lizorkin-Triebel spaces, the intersection representation gives an improvement of the well-known Fubini property. The main result has applications in the weighted $L_{q}$-$L_{p}$-maximal regularity problem for parabolic boundary value problems, where weighted anisotropic mixed-norm Lizorkin-Triebel spaces occur as spaces of boundary data.
We prove that for every Banach space $Y$, the Besov spaces of functions from the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space to $Y$ agree with suitable local approximation spaces with equivalent norms. In addition, we prove that the Sobolev spaces of type $q$ are continuously embedded in the Besov spaces of the same type if and only if $Y$ has martingale cotype $q$. We interpret this as an extension of earlier results of Xu (1998), and Martinez, Torrea and Xu (2006). These two results combined give the characterization that $Y$ admits an equivalent norm with modulus of convexity of power type $q$ if and only if weakly differentiable functions have good local approximations with polynomials.
If $mu_1,mu_2,dots$ are positive measures on a measurable space $(X,Sigma)$ and $v_1,v_2, dots$ are elements of a Banach space ${mathbb E}$ such that $sum_{n=1}^infty |v_n| mu_n(X) < infty$, then $omega (S)= sum_{n=1}^infty v_n mu_n(S)$ defines a vector measure of bounded variation on $(X,Sigma)$. We show ${mathbb E}$ has the Radon-Nikodym property if and only if every ${mathbb E}$-valued measure of bounded variation on $(X,Sigma)$ is of this form. As an application of this result we show that under natural conditions an operator defined on positive measures, has a unique extension to an operator defined on ${mathbb E}$-valued measures for any Banach space ${mathbb E}$ that has the Radon-Nikodym property.
Let $G$ be a topological Abelian semigroup with unit, let $E$ be a Banach space, and let $C(G,E)$ denote the set of continuous functions $fcolon Gto E$. A function $fin C(G,E)$ is a generalized polynomial, if there is an $nge 0$ such that $Delta_{h_1} ldots Delta_{h_{n+1}} f=0$ for every $h_1 ,ldots , h_{n+1} in G$, where $Delta_h$ is the difference operator. We say that $fin C(G,E)$ is a polynomial, if it is a generalized polynomial, and the linear span of its translates is of finite dimension; $f$ is a w-polynomial, if $ucirc f$ is a polynomial for every $uin E^*$, and $f$ is a local polynomial, if it is a polynomial on every finitely generated subsemigroup. We show that each of the classes of polynomials, w-polynomials, generalized polynomials, local polynomials is contained in the next class. If $G$ is an Abelian group and has a dense subgroup with finite torsion free rank, then these classes coincide. We introduce the classes of exponential polynomials and w-expo-nential polynomials as well, establish their representations and connection with polynomials and w-polynomials. We also investigate spectral synthesis and analysis in the class $C(G,E)$. It is known that if $G$ is a compact Abelian group and $E$ is a Banach space, then spectral synthesis holds in $C(G,E)$. On the other hand, we show that if $G$ is an infinite and discrete Abelian group and $E$ is a Banach space of infinite dimension, then even spectral analysis fails in $C(G,E)$. If, however, $G$ is discrete, has finite torsion free rank and if $E$ is a Banach space of finite dimension, then spectral synthesis holds in $C(G,E)$.
