if A note on lacunary series in Q K spaces 96 Recall that a function fz) = a kz HD) is called a lacunary series λ = inf k + > Such series are often used to give examples of functions in various analytic function spaces It is well known that a lacunary series belongs to BMOA if and only if it is in the Hardy space H see []) By [], if < p <, then the lacunary series f Q p if and only if n p k a k < H Wulan and K Zhu [6] characterized lacunary series in Q K spaces as follows Theorem A [6]) Let K satisfy φ K s) s ds <, ) where φ K s) = sup Kst)/Kt), < s < t Then a lacunary series fz) = a k z belongs to Q K if and only if ) a k K < By [3], the space Q K only depends on the weight function K in a neighbourhood of the origin If K t) = t log e t, < t <, then Q K is the analytic version of Q D) space see [7] and [9]) An elementary calculation shows that φ K s) = s when s Thus, K does not satisfy the condition ) In other words, Theorem A misses the case of the analytic version of Q D) space It was pointed out in [6] that Theorem A also misses the classical case of BMOA The goal of this article is to characterize lacunary series in Q K spaces under a weaker condition of K Our result covers the cases of BMOA and the analytic version of Q D) space We write A B if there exists a constant C such that A CB, in addition, the symbol A B means that A B A Main result In [6], we can find many nice estimates of the weight function K under the condition ) In recent years, the study of Q K spaces benefits from these estimates In particular, if K satisfies ), then there exists an increasing function K on, ) such that K t) Kt) for all t, ) Moreover,
