The existence of a weighted mean for almost periodic functions Original Research Article

In a recent paper by Liang et al. (2010) [1], the original question which is that of the existence of a weighted mean for almost periodic functions was raised. In particular, they showed through an example that there exist weights for which a weighted mean for almost periodic functions may or may not exist. In this note we give some sufficient conditions which do guarantee the existence of a weighted mean for almost periodic functions, which will then coincide with the classical Bohr mean. Moreover, we will show that under those conditions, the corresponding weighted Bohr transform exists.
