Let μ t be a symmetric α-stable semigroup of probability measures on a homogeneous group N, where 0 < α < 2. Assume that μ t are absolutely continuous with respect to Haar measure and denote by h t the corresponding densities. We show that the estimate h t ( x ) ≤ t Ω ( x / | x | ) | x | - n - α , x≠0, holds true with some integrable function Ω on the unit sphere Σ if and only if the density of the Lévy measure of the semigroup belongs locally to the Zygmund class LlogL(N╲e). The problem turns out to be related to the properties of the maximal function ℳ f ( x ) = s u p t > 0 1 / t | ʃ 0 t h t - s ∗ f ∗ h s ( x ) d s | which, as is proved here, is of weak type (1,1).

Assume that $μ_t$ are absolutely continuous with respect to Haar measure and denote by $h_t$ the corresponding densities. We show that the estimate $h_t(x) ≤ tΩ(x/|x|)|x|^{-n-α}$, x≠0, holds true with some integrable function Ω on the unit sphere Σ if and only if the density of the Lévy measure of the semigroup belongs locally to the Zygmund class LlogL(N╲e). The problem turns out to be related to the properties of the maximal function $ℳ f(x) = sup_{t>0} 1/t |ʃ_{0}^{t} h_{t-s} ∗ f ∗ h_s(x)ds|$ which, as is proved here, is of weak type (1,1).
