Modular convergence of Steklov sampling operators in Orlicz spaces

Abstract

In this paper, we deal with the family of Steklov sampling operators in the general setting of Orlicz spaces. The main result of the paper is a modular convergence theorem established following a density approach. To do this, a Luxemburg norm convergence for the Steklov sampling series based on continuous functions with compact support, and a modular-type inequality in the case of functions in Orlicz spaces has been preliminary proved. As a particular case of general theory, the results in $L^p$, in the Zygmund (interpolation), and in the exponential spaces are deduced. A crucial aspect in the above results is the choice of both band- and duration- limited kernel functions satisfying the partition of the unit property; to provide such examples an equivalent condition based on the Poisson summation formula and the computation of the Fourier transform of the kernel has been employed.
