Suppose Φ is a nonnegative, locally integrable, radial function on R n , which is nonincreasing in | x | . Set ( T f ) ( x ) = ∫ R n Φ ( x - y ) f ( y ) d y when f ≥ 0 and x ∈ R n . Given 1 < p < ∞ and v ≥ 0 , we show there exists C > 0 so that ∫ R n ( T f ) ( x ) p v ( x ) d x ≤ C ∫ R n f ( x ) p d x for all f ≥ 0 , if and only if C ' > 0 exists with ∫ Q T ( x Q v ) ( x ) p ' d x ≤ C ' ∫ Q v ( x ) d x < ∞ for all dyadic cubes Q, where p ' = p / ( p - 1 ) . This result is used to refine recent estimates of C.L. Fefferman and D.H. Phong on the distribution of eigenvalues of Schrödinger operators.
