Remarks on the Ionescu-Wainger multiplier theorem

Abstract

In this paper, we extend the recent Ionescu--Wainger multiplier theorem for the set of canonical fractions by Kosz, Mirek, Peluse, Wan, and Wright in several directions. First, we prove its weighted version, which allows us to combine a multifrequency setting with appropriate arithmetic weights. Second, we establish useful seminorm variants of the theorem. Third, we improve the norm upper bounds and, surprisingly, show that these bounds cannot be uniform in the size of the family of canonical fractions. Finally, we demonstrate how these refinements (especially handling arithmetic weights) can be applied by giving a short proof of Bourgain's pointwise ergodic theorem for polynomial iterates.
