“Walsh–Lebesgue theorem”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The Walsh–Lebesgue theorem is a famous result from harmonic analysis proved by the American mathematician Joseph L. Walsh in 1929, using results proved by Lebesgue in 1907.^[1]^[2]^[3] The theorem states the following:

Let {{math|K}} be a compact subset of the Euclidean plane {{math|ℝ²}} such the relative complement of

with respect to {{math|ℝ²}} is connected. Then, every real-valued continuous function on

(i.e. the boundary of {{math|K}}) can be approximated uniformly on

by (real-valued) harmonic polynomials in the real variables {{math|x}} and {{math|y}}.^[4]

Generalizations

The Walsh–Lebesgue theorem has been generalized to Riemann surfaces^[5] and to {{math|ℝⁿ}}.

In 1974 Anthony G. O'Farrell gave a generalization of the Walsh–Lebesgue theorem by means of the 1964 Browder–Wermer theorem^[7] with related techniques.^[8]^[9]^[10]
