We present a unified theory for the almost periodicity of functions with values in an arbitrary Banach space, measures and distributions via almost periodic elements for the action of a locally compact abelian group on a uniform topological space. We discuss the relation between Bohr- and Bochner-type almost periodicity, and similar conditions, and how the equivalence among such conditions relates to properties of the group action and the uniformity. We complete the paper by demonstrating how various examples considered earlier all fit in our framework.

In this paper, we consider an equivalence relation on the space $AP(\mathbb {R},X)$ of almost periodic functions with values in a prefixed Banach space X. In this context, it is known that the normality or Bochner-type property, which characterizes these functions, is based on the relative compactness of the family of translates. Now, we prove that every equivalence class is sequentially compact and the family of translates of a function belonging to this subspace is dense in its own class, i.e., the condition of almost periodicity of a function $f\in AP(\mathbb {R},X)$ yields that every sequence of translates of f has a subsequence that converges to a function equivalent to f. This extends previous work by the same authors on the case of numerical almost periodic functions.

In this note we examine Littlewood’s proof of the prime number theorem. We show that this can be extended to provide an equivalence between the prime number theorem and the nonvanishing of Riemann’s zeta-function on the one-line. Our approach goes through the theory of almost periodic functions and is self-contained.

In this paper we characterize the Fourier transformability of strongly almost periodic measures in terms of an integrability condition for their Fourier–Bohr series. We also provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a strongly almost periodic measure to be the Fourier transform of a measure. We discuss the Fourier transformability of a measure on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ in terms of its Fourier transform as a tempered distribution. We conclude by looking at a large class of such measures coming from the cut and project formalism.

We consider the zero-resistivity limit for Hasegawa–Wakatani equations in a cylindrical domain when the initial data are Stepanov almost-periodic in the axial direction. First, we prove the existence of a solution to Hasegawa–Wakatani equations with zero resistivity; second, we obtain uniform a priori estimates with respect to resistivity. Such estimates can be obtained in the same way as for our previous results; therefore, the most important contribution of this paper is the proof of the existence of a local-in-time solution to Hasegawa–Wakatani equations with zero resistivity. We apply the theory of Bohr–Fourier series of Stepanov almost-periodic functions to such a proof.

In this work, we give some theorems on (mild) weighted pseudo-almost periodic solutions for some abstract semilinear differential equations with uniform continuity. To facilitate this we give a new composition theorem of weighted pseudo-almost periodic functions. Our composition theorem improves the known one by making use of a uniform continuity condition instead of the Lipschitz condition.

L’objectif de cet article est d’étudier la notion d’amibe au sens de Favorov pour les systèmes finis de sommes d’exponentielles à fréquences réelles et de montrer que, sous des hypothèses de généricité sur les fréquences, le complémentaire de l’amibe d’un système de $(k\,+\,1)$ sommes d’exponentielles à fréquences réelles est un sous-ensemble $k$-convexe au sens d’Henriques.
