While going through some of the publications (Mohan and Babu, 1995), I became interested in the work of Mohan et al. (1982) which proposed a technique for interpretation of magnetic field anomalies over different geometrical sources using the Hilbert transform (HT). Before I put forward my observations, it would be appropriate to look into some important properties of HT (Whalen, 1971, pages 63 and 69.)

The above‐cited paper usefully examines and extends the application of the Hilbert transform to potential field interpretation. However, the authors’ terse mention of Nabighian’s paper (Geophysics, 1972) fails to characterize adequately and acknowledge his original insights and contributions to the Hilbert transform presented in that paper. It is surprising as well that none of the reviewers and/or editors saw fit to rectify this undeserved omission.

The paper extends to three dimensions (3-D) the two‐dimensional (2-D) Hilbert transform relations between potential field components. For the 3-D case, it is shown that the Hilbert transform is composed of two parts, with one part acting on the X component and one part on the Y component. As for the previously developed 2-D case, it is shown that in 3-D the vertical and horizontal derivatives are the Hilbert transforms of each other. The 2-D Cauchy‐Riemann relations between a potential function and its Hilbert transform are generalized for the 3-D case. Finally, the previously developed concept of analytic signal in 2-D can be extended to 3-D as a first step toward the development of an automatic interpretation technique for potential field data.

Two specific generalizations of the multidimensional Hilbert transform in Clifford analysis are constructed. It is shown that though in each of these generalizations some traditional properties of the Hilbert transform are inevitably lost, new bounded singular operators emerge on Hilbert or Sobolev spaces ofL2-functions.

The Hilbert transform, Hf, of a function f is defined by Hf = g, whereP denoting the Cauchy principal value and the integral being assumed to exist in some sense. When f is suitably restricted, Hf exists andIn the first part of Theorem 1 sufficient conditions are given for the validity of (1·2) rather more general than those of Wood ((6), p. 31). The present proof is based on the well-known condition of Riesz for the validity of (1·2), namely, that f is Lp(−∞, ∞) for some p > 1, and on the ‘Parseval’ relation (Lemma 3, (b)), which was used in a similar way by Hardy ((3), p. 110).

The Fourier and Hilbert transform techniques have played extremely important roles in geophysical data processing. We were naturally very interested to find the paper by Mohan et al. which described a possible application of the Hilbert transform approach in magnetic interpretation. However, we found some very serious problems in the paper.

Procedures are formulated using the Hilbert transform for interpreting vertical magnetic anomalies of (1) the sheets (finite and infinite depth extent), (2) the dike, and (3) the horizontal circular cylinder. The applicability of the method is tested on theoretical models. The method is also applied on the well‐known Kursk field anomaly of a sheet (infinite‐depth extent) and the field anomaly of a dike of Karimnagar, Andhra Pradesh, India.

Abstract Let $X$ be a given Banach space, and let $M$ and $N$ be two orthogonal $X$-valued local martingales such that $N$ is weakly differentially subordinate to $M$. The paper contains the proof of the estimate $\mathbb E \Psi (N_t) \leq C_{\Phi ,\Psi ,X} \mathbb E \Phi (M_t)$, $t\geq 0$, where $\Phi , \Psi :X \to \mathbb R_+$ are convex continuous functions and the least admissible constant $C_{\Phi ,\Psi ,X}$ coincides with the $\Phi ,\Psi $-norm of the periodic Hilbert transform. As a corollary, it is shown that the $\Phi ,\Psi $-norms of the periodic Hilbert transform, the Hilbert transform on the real line, and the discrete Hilbert transform are the same if $\Phi $ is symmetric. We also prove that under certain natural assumptions on $\Phi $ and $\Psi $, the condition $C_{\Phi ,\Psi ,X}<\infty $ yields the UMD property of the space $X$. As an application, we provide comparison of $L^p$-norms of the periodic Hilbert transform to Wiener and Paley–Walsh decoupling constants. We also study the norms of the periodic, nonperiodic, and discrete Hilbert transforms and present the corresponding estimates in the context of differentially subordinate harmonic functions and more general singular integral operators.

Three related operations commonly performed on total‐field magnetic data are 1) conversion to vertical‐field anomaly, 2) reduction to the pole, and 3) computation of pseudogravimetric anomalies. This note shows that for profile or flight line data for which the source can be assumed to be two‐dimensional, all these operations amount to linear combination of the profile with its Hilbert transform.
