ABSTRACT - A characterization of convolutors in
(WL, a)’ -space
isgiven using
the
properties
of the translate r :WL, a
-WL, a- Using
thetheory
of Fouri-er transform in these spaces, the Fourier transform of convolution is studied.
1. - Introduction.
A characterization of convolution
operators
on the space wasgiven by
Swartz[9] generalizing
the characterizations of the space0~
of Schwartz
[8]
and of convolutors on the spaces of distributions of ex-ponential growth by
Hausmi[5].
This chracterizationnaturally yields
acharacterization for
WM, a-space,
which is aspecial
case space.A similar characterization of convolution
operators
inKp
wasgiven by Sampson
andZielezny [10].
All these results are related to L °°-norms.
In terms of L p norms the spaces
WD, P, WD, b, p
were de-fined and their Fourier transforms were studied in
[6].
We recall the definition of the spacesWL, WL, a’
Letp(~)

increasing
function on[0, oo ]

andNow the space is defined as the set of all

differen-tiable functions

for each
non-negative integer
k where thepositive
constants a andCk, p depend
upon 0.Clearly WM
is a linear space. The spaceWM
can be re-garded
as the union ofcountably
normed spacesWM, a

convex functionpossessing properties
similar to those of M. ThenWD, P

the set~ ih ~: ~

THEOREM 2.2. For each 0 E

the translaterh (P is differen-
tiable in 1.
PROOF. From
[6, p. 734]
we know that a function 0 EWM, a
is dif-ferentiable in
WM, a
space. Since E it follows that is dif- ferentiable inWM,

we recall the definition of a convolute[3, p. 137].

DEFINITION 2.3. Let V be any test function space and V be its dual. A
generalized
function is said to be a convolute if for each~ E E

Therefore D is dense inWL, a.
Since D c(WM, b),
