Improvement of Menshov’s Theorem on Upper Estimate for the Norm of Maximal Operator

Journal of Mathematical Sciences Aims and scope Submit manuscript

We study the problem of estimating the majorant of partial sums of a series with respect to an orthogonal system. D. E. Menshov established that the norm of the maximal operator does not exceed log2 N +1 and this estimate is order-sharp. We prove that the norm of the maximal operator does not exceed 0.5 log2 N + 1. The estimate obtained provides new tools for constructing orthogonal systems with extremely large norm of the majorant of partial sums.
