Sufficient conditions are derived in order that there exist strong-type weighted norm inequalities for some off-centered maximal functions. The maximal functions are of Hardy-Littlewood and fractional types taken over starlike sets in Rn. The sufficient conditions are close to necessary and extend some previously known weak-type results.

We study the weighted norm inequalities for the minimal operator, a new operator analogous to the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator which arose in the study of reverse Hölder inequalities. We characterize the classes of weights which govern the strong and weak-type norm inequalities for the minimal operator in the two weight case, and show that these classes are the same. We also show that a generalization of the minimal operator can be used to obtain information about the differentiability of the...

We give norm inequalities for some classical operators in amalgam spaces and in some subspaces of Morrey space.

We study the duality theory of the weighted multi-parameter Triebel-Lizorkin spaces ${\dot{F}}_p^{\alpha ,q}(\omega ;{ℝ}^{n_1}\times {ℝ}^{n_2})$. This space has been introduced and the result $${\left({\dot{F}}_p^{\alpha ,q}(\omega ;{ℝ}^{n_1}\times {ℝ}^{n_2})\right)}^{*}={\mathrm{CMO}}_p^{-\alpha ,q^{\text{'}}}(\omega ;{ℝ}^{n_1}\times {ℝ}^{n_2})$$ for $0<p\le 1$ has been proved in Ding, Zhu (2017). In this paper, for $1<p<\infty$, $0<q<\infty$ we establish its dual space ${\dot{H}}_p^{\alpha ,q}(\omega ;{ℝ}^{n_1}\times {ℝ}^{n_2})$.

Let $\Phi \left(t\right)={ʃ}_0^{t}a\left(s\right)ds$ and $\Psi \left(t\right)={ʃ}_0^{t}b\left(s\right)ds$, where a(s) is a positive continuous function such that ${ʃ}_1^{\infty }a\left(s\right)/sds=\infty$ and b(s) is quasi-increasing and $li{m}_{s\to \infty }b\left(s\right)=\infty$. Then the following statements for the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function Mf(x) are equivalent: (j) there exist positive constants $c_1$ and $s_0$ such that ${ʃ}_1^{s}a\left(t\right)/tdt\ge c_{1}b\left(c_{1}s\right)$ for all $s\ge s_0$; (jj) there exist positive constants $c_2$ and $c_3$ such that ${ʃ}_0^{2\pi }\Psi (\left(c_2\right)/{\left(\right|⨍|}_{}\left)\right|⨍\left(x\right)\left|\right)dx\le c_3+c_3{ʃ}_0^{2\pi }{\Phi (1/(\left|⨍\right|}_{}\left)\right)Mf\left(x\right)dx$ for all $⨍\in L^1\left(\right)$.

We establish a decomposition of non-negative Radon measures on ${ℝ}^d$ which extends that obtained by Strichartz [6] in the setting of $\alpha$-dimensional measures. As consequences, we deduce some well-known properties concerning the density of non-negative Radon measures. Furthermore, some properties of non-negative Radon measures having their Riesz potential in a Lebesgue space are obtained.

The Hardy inequality ${\int }_{\Omega }{\left|u\left(x\right)\right|}^{p}d{\left(x\right)}^{-p}\ddot{x}\le c{\int }_{\Omega }{\left|\nabla u\left(x\right)\right|}^p\ddot{x}$ with $d\left(x\right)=dist(x,\partial \Omega )$ holds for $u\in C_0^{\infty }\left(\Omega \right)$ if $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^n$ is an open set with a sufficiently smooth boundary and if $1<p<\infty$. P. Hajlasz proved the pointwise counterpart to this inequality involving a maximal function of Hardy-Littlewood type on the right hand side and, as a consequence, obtained the integral Hardy inequality. We extend these results for gradients of higher order and also for $p=1$.

In their celebrated paper [3], Burkholder, Gundy, and Silverstein used Brownian motion to derive a maximal function characterization of $H^p$ spaces for 0 < p < ∞. In the present paper, we show that the methods in [3] extend to higher dimensions and yield a dimension-free weak type (1,1) estimate for a conjugate function on the N-dimensional torus.

It is known that the weak type (1,1) for the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator can be obtained from the weak type (1,1) over Dirac deltas. This theorem is due to M. de Guzmán. In this paper, we develop a technique that allows us to prove such a theorem for operators and measure spaces in which Guzmán's technique cannot be used.
