The nuclearity of Gelfand-Shilov spaces and kernel theorems

Abstract

We study the nuclearity of the Gelfand-Shilov spaces $\mathcal{S}^{(\mathfrak{M})}_{(\mathscr{W})}$ and $\mathcal{S}^{\{\mathfrak{M}\}}_{\{\mathscr{W}\}}$, defined via a weight (multi-)sequence system $\mathfrak{M}$ and a weight function system $\mathscr{W}$. We obtain characterizations of nuclearity for these function spaces that are counterparts of those for Köthe sequence spaces. As an application, we prove new kernel theorems. Our general framework allows for a unified treatment of the Gelfand-Shilov spaces $\mathcal{S}^{(M)}_{(A)}$ and $\mathcal{S}^{\{M\}}_{\{A\}}$ (defined via weight sequences $M$ and $A$) and the Beurling-Björck spaces $\mathcal{S}^{(ω)}_{(η)}$ and $\mathcal{S}^{\{ω\}}_{\{η\}}$ (defined via weight functions $ω$ and $η$). Our results cover anisotropic cases as well.
