Let Y be a Banach space and let $S\subset L_p$ be a subspace of an $L_p$ space, for some p ∈ (1,∞). We consider two operators B and C acting on S and Y respectively and satisfying the so-called maximal regularity property. Let ℬ and be their natural extensions to $S\left(Y\right)\subset L_p\left(Y\right)$. We investigate conditions that imply that ℬ + is closed and has the maximal regularity property. Extending theorems of Lamberton and Weis, we show in particular that this holds if Y is a UMD Banach lattice and $e^{-tB}$ is a positive contraction...

If the second order problem $\ddot{u}+\dot{u}+Au=f$ has $L^p$ maximal regularity for some $p\in (1,\mathrm{\infty })$, then it has $L^p$ maximal regularity for every $p\in (1,\mathrm{\infty })$.

Let $M_S$ denote the strong maximal operator. Let $M_x$ and $M_y$ denote the one-dimensional Hardy-Littlewood maximal operators in the horizontal and vertical directions in ℝ². A function h supported on the unit square Q = [0,1]×[0,1] is exhibited such that ${\int }_Q{M}_y{M}_{x}h<\infty$ but ${\int }_Q{M}_x{M}_{y}h=\infty$. It is shown that if f is a function supported on Q such that ${\int }_Q{M}_y{M}_{x}f<\infty$ but ${\int }_Q{M}_x{M}_{y}f=\infty$, then there exists a set A of finite measure in ℝ² such that ${\int }_A{M}_{S}f=\infty$.

The classical Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is bounded not only on the classical Lebesgue spaces $L_p\left({ℝ}^d\right)$ (in the case $p>1$), but (in the case when $1/p(·)$ is log-Hölder continuous and $p_{-}=inf\{p\left(x\right):x\in {ℝ}^d\}>1$) on the variable Lebesgue spaces $L_{p(·)}\left({ℝ}^d\right)$, too. Furthermore, the classical Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is of weak-type $(1,1)$. In the present note we generalize Besicovitch’s covering theorem for the so-called $\gamma$-rectangles. We introduce a general maximal operator $M_s^{\gamma ,\delta }$ and with the help of generalized $\Phi$-functions, the strong-...

We prove $L^2$ $$\dot{u}\left(t\right)+A\left(t\right)u\left(t\right)=f\left(t\right)\text{for}\text{a.e.}t\in [0,T],u\left(0\right)=u_0,$$ where the operator $A\left(t\right)$ arises from a time depending sesquilinear form $𝔞(t,·,·)$ on a Hilbert space $H$ with constant domain $V.$ We prove the maximal regularity in $H$ when these forms are time Lipschitz continuous. We proceed by approximating the problem using the frozen coefficient method developed by El-Mennaoui, Keyantuo, Laasri (2011), El-Mennaoui, Laasri (2013), and Laasri (2012). As a consequence, we obtain an invariance criterion for convex and closed...

Let d > 0 be a positive real number and n ≥ 1 a positive integer and define the operator $S_d$ and its associated global maximal operator $S*{*}_d$ by $\left(S_{d}f\right)(x,t)=1/\left(2\pi \right)ⁿ{\int }_{ℝⁿ}{e}^{ix·\xi }{e}^{{it\left|\xi \right|}^d}f̂\left(\xi \right)d\xi$, f ∈ (ℝⁿ), x ∈ ℝⁿ, t ∈ ℝ, $(S*{*}_{d}f)\left(x\right)=su{p}_{t\in ℝ}|1/\left(2\pi \right)ⁿ{\int }_{ℝⁿ}{e}^{ix·\xi }{e}^{{it\left|\xi \right|}^d}f̂\left(\xi \right)d\xi |$, f ∈ (ℝⁿ), x ∈ ℝⁿ, where f̂ is the Fourier transform of f and (ℝⁿ) is the Schwartz class of rapidly decreasing functions. If d = 2, $S_{d}f$ is the solution to the initial value problem for the free Schrödinger equation (cf. (1.3) in this paper). We prove that for radial functions f ∈ (ℝⁿ), if n ≥ 3, 0 < d ≤ 2, and p ≥...

The main aim of this paper is to prove that the maximal operator ${\sigma }^{}$ is bounded from the Hardy space $H_{1/2}$ to weak-$L_{1/2}$ and is not bounded from $H_{1/2}$ to $L_{1/2}$.

The purpose of multifractal analysis of functions is to determine the Hausdorff dimensions of the sets of points where a function (or a distribution) f has a given pointwise regularity exponent H. This notion has many variants depending on the global hypotheses made on f; if f locally belongs to a Banach space E, then a family of pointwise regularity spaces $C_E^{\alpha }\left(x₀\right)$ are constructed, leading to a notion of pointwise regularity with respect to E; the case $E=L^{\infty }$ corresponds to the usual Hölder regularity,...

In this paper we study the regularity properties of the one-dimensional one-sided Hardy-Littlewood maximal operators ${ℳ}^{+}$ and ${ℳ}^{-}$. More precisely, we prove that ${ℳ}^{+}$ and ${ℳ}^{-}$ map $W^{1,p}\left(ℝ\right)\to W^{1,p}\left(ℝ\right)$ with $1<p<\infty$, boundedly and continuously. In addition, we show that the discrete versions $M^{+}$ and $M^{-}$ map $\mathrm{BV}\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)\to \mathrm{BV}\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)$ boundedly and map $l^1\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)\to \mathrm{BV}\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)$ continuously. Specially, we obtain the sharp variation inequalities of $M^{+}$ and $M^{-}$, that is, $$\mathrm{Var}\left(M^{+}\left(f\right)\right)\le \mathrm{Var}\left(f\right)\text{and}\mathrm{Var}\left(M^{-}\left(f\right)\right)\le \mathrm{Var}\left(f\right)$$ if $f\in \mathrm{BV}\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)$, where $\mathrm{Var}\left(f\right)$ is the total variation of $f$ on $\mathbb{Z}$ and $\mathrm{BV}\left(\mathbb{Z}\right)$ is the set of all functions $f:\mathbb{Z}\to ℝ$ satisfying $\mathrm{Var}\left(f\right)<\infty$.

Let A = -Δ + V be a Schrödinger operator on ${ℝ}^d$, d ≥ 3, where V is a nonnegative potential satisfying the reverse Hölder inequality with an exponent q > d/2. We say that f is an element of $H_A^p$ if the maximal function $su{p}_{t>0}\left|T_{t}f\left(x\right)\right|$ belongs to $L^p\left({ℝ}^d\right)$, where ${T_t}_{t>0}$ is the semigroup generated by -A. It is proved that for d/(d+1) < p ≤ 1 the space $H_A^p$ admits a special atomic decomposition.

We characterise the boundedness of the $H^{\infty }$ calculus of a sectorial operator in terms of dilation theorems. We show e. g. that if $-A$ generates a bounded analytic $C_0$ semigroup $\left(T_t\right)$ on a UMD space, then the $H^{\infty }$ calculus of $A$ is bounded if and only if $\left(T_t\right)$ has a dilation to a bounded group on $L^2([0,1],X)$. This generalises a Hilbert space result of C.LeMerdy. If $X$ is an $L^p$ space we can choose another $L^p$ space in place of $L^2([0,1],X)$.

Let Ω be an open subset of ${ℝ}^d$ with 0 ∈ Ω. Furthermore, let $H_{\Omega }=-{\sum }_{i,j=1}^d{\partial }_i{c}_{ij}{\partial }_j$ be a second-order partial differential operator with domain $C_c^{\infty }\left(\Omega \right)$ where the coefficients $c_{ij}\in W_{loc}^{1,\infty }\left(\Omega ̅\right)$ are real, $c_{ij}=c_{ji}$ and the coefficient matrix $C=\left(c_{ij}\right)$ satisfies bounds 0 < C(x) ≤ c(|x|)I for all x ∈ Ω. If ${\int }_0^{\infty }ds{s}^{d/2}{e}^{-\lambda \mu \left(s\right)²}<\infty$ for some λ > 0 where $\mu \left(s\right)={\int }_0^{s}dtc{\left(t\right)}^{-1/2}$ then we establish that $H_{\Omega }$ is L₁-unique, i.e. it has a unique L₁-extension which generates a continuous semigroup, if and only if it is Markov unique, i.e. it has a unique L₂-extension which generates a submarkovian semigroup....

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain of class $C^2$ in $ℝ$N and let $K$ be a compact subset of $\partial \Omega$. Assume that $q\ge (N+1)/\left(N-1\right)$ and denote by $U_K$ the maximal solution of $-\Delta u+u^q=0$ in $\Omega$ which vanishes on $\partial \Omega \setminus K$. We obtain sharp upper and lower estimates for $U_K$ in terms of the Bessel capacity $C_{2/q,q^{\text{'}}}$ and prove that $U_K$ is $\sigma$-moderate. In addition we describe the precise asymptotic behavior of $U_K$ at points $\sigma \in K$, which depends on the “density” of $K$ at $\sigma$, measured in terms of the capacity $C_{2/q,q^{\text{'}}}$.

Let $X$ be a Banach space of analytic functions on the open unit disk and $\Gamma$ a subset of linear isometries on $X$. Sufficient conditions are given for non-supercyclicity of $\Gamma$. In particular, we show that the semigroup of linear isometries on the spaces $S^p$ ($p>1$), the little Bloch space, and the group of surjective linear isometries on the big Bloch space are not supercyclic. Also, we observe that the groups of all surjective linear isometries on the Hardy space $H^p$ or the Bergman space $L_a^p$ ($1<p<\infty$, $p\ne 2$)...

We study the boundedness of the one-sided operator $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$ between the weighted spaces $L^p\left(M¯w\right)$ and $L^p\left(w\right)$ for every weight w. If λ = 2/p whenever 1 < p < 2, and in the case p = 1 for λ > 2, we prove the weak type of $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$. For every λ > 1 and p = 2, or λ > 2/p and 1 < p < 2, the boundedness of this operator is obtained. For p > 2 and λ > 1, we obtain the boundedness of $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$ from $L^p\left({\left(M¯\right)}^{[p/2]+1}w\right)$ to $L^p\left(w\right)$, where ${\left(M¯\right)}^k$ denotes the operator M¯ iterated k times.

An RD-space $𝒳$ is a space of homogeneous type in the sense of Coifman and Weiss with the additional property that a reverse doubling property holds. The authors prove that for a space of homogeneous type $𝒳$ having “dimension” $n$, there exists a $p_0\in (n/(n+1),1)$ such that for certain classes of distributions, the $L^p\left(𝒳\right)$ quasi-norms of their radial maximal functions and grand maximal functions are equivalent when $p\in (p_0,\infty ]$. This result yields a radial maximal function characterization for Hardy spaces on $𝒳$. ...

For a finite Coxeter group $W$ and a Coxeter element $c$ of $W$; the $c$-Cambrian fan is a coarsening of the fan defined by the reflecting hyperplanes of $W$. Its maximal cones are naturally indexed by the $c$-sortable elements of $W$. The main result of this paper is that the known bijection cl${}_c$ between $c$-sortable elements and $c$-clusters induces a combinatorial isomorphism of fans. In particular, the $c$-Cambrian fan is combinatorially isomorphic to the normal fan of the generalized associahedron for...

Let M be a metrizable group. Let G be a dense subgroup of $M^X$. We prove that if G is domain representable, then $G=M^X$. The following corollaries answer open questions. If X is completely regular and $C_p\left(X\right)$ is domain representable, then X is discrete. If X is zero-dimensional, T₂, and $C_p(X,)$ is subcompact, then X is discrete.

Let $U₁,...,U_d$ be a non-periodic collection of commuting measure preserving transformations on a probability space (Ω,Σ,μ). Also let Γ be a nonempty subset of $\mathbb{Z}{₊}^d$ and the associated collection of rectangular parallelepipeds in ${ℝ}^d$ with sides parallel to the axes and dimensions of the form $n₁\times \cdots \times n_d$ with $(n₁,...,n_d)\in \Gamma .$ The associated multiparameter geometric and ergodic maximal operators $M_{}$ and $M_{\Gamma }$ are defined respectively on $L¹\left({ℝ}^d\right)$ and L¹(Ω) by $M_{}g\left(x\right)=su{p}_{x\in R\in }1/\left|R\right|{\int }_R\left|g\left(y\right)\right|dy$ and $M_{\Gamma }f\left(\omega \right)=su{p}_{(n₁,...,n_d)\in \Gamma }1/n₁\cdots n_d{\sum }_{j₁=0}^{n₁-1}\cdots {\sum }_{j_d=0}^{n_d-1}\left|f\left(U{₁}^{j₁}\cdots U_d^{j_d}\omega \right)\right|$. Given a Young function Φ, it is shown that $M_{}$ satisfies the weak type estimate ...

Starting from Giaquinta’s counterexample [12] we introduce the class of splitting functionals being of $(p,q)$-growth with exponents $p\le q\&lt;\infty$ and show for the scalar case that locally bounded local minimizers are of class $C^{1,\mu }$. Note that to our knowledge the only $C^{1,\mu }$-results without imposing a relation between $p$ and $q$ concern the case of two independent variables as it is outlined in Marcellini’s paper [15], Theorem A, and later on in the work of Fusco and Sbordone [10], Theorem 4.2.

We give new results on square functions $${\parallel x\parallel }_F=\parallel {\left({\int }_0^{\infty }{\left|F\left(tA\right)x\right|}^2\frac{\mathrm{d}t}{t}\right)}^{1/2}{\parallel }_p$$ associated to a sectorial operator $A$ on $L^p$ for $1\&lt;p\&lt;\infty$. Under the assumption that $A$ is actually $R$-sectorial, we prove equivalences of the form $K^{-1}{\parallel x\parallel }_G\le {\parallel x\parallel }_F\le K{\parallel x\parallel }_G$ for suitable functions $F,G$. We also show that $A$ has a bounded $H^{\infty }$ functional calculus with respect to ${\parallel .\parallel }_F$. Then we apply our results to the study of conditions under which we have an estimate $\parallel {({\int }_0^{\infty }|C{\mathrm{e}}^{-tA}{\left(x\right)|}^2\mathrm{d}t{)}^{1/2}\parallel }_q\le M{\parallel x\parallel }_p$, when $-A$ generates a bounded semigroup ${\mathrm{e}}^{-tA}$ on $L^p$ and $C:D\left(A\right)\to L^q$ is a linear mapping.

Let $u\in L^2(I;H^1\left(\Omega \right))$ with ${\partial }_{t}u\in L^2(I;H^1{\left(\Omega \right)}^{*})$ be given. Then we show by means of a counter-example that the positive part $u^{+}$ of $u$ has less regularity, in particular it holds ${\partial }_t{u}^{+}\notin L^1(I;H^1{\left(\Omega \right)}^{*})$ in general. Nevertheless, $u^{+}$ satisfies an integration-by-parts formula, which can be used to prove non-negativity of weak solutions of parabolic equations.

A space $X$ is said to have the Rothberger property (or simply $X$ is Rothberger) if for every sequence $\langle {𝒰}_n:n\in \omega \rangle$ of open covers of $X$, there exists $U_n\in {𝒰}_n$ for each $n\in \omega$ such that $X={\bigcup }_{n\in \omega }{U}_n$. For any $n\in \omega$, necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for $C_p{(\Psi \left(𝒜\right),2)}^n$ to have the Rothberger property when $𝒜$ is a Mrówka mad family and, assuming CH (the Continuum Hypothesis), we prove the existence of a maximal almost disjoint family $𝒜$ for which the space $C_p{(\Psi \left(𝒜\right),2)}^n$ is Rothberger for all $n\in \omega$.

Let $D$ be a ${𝒞}^d$ $q$-convex intersection, $d\ge 2$, $0\le q\le n-1$, in a complex manifold $X$ of complex dimension $n$, $n\ge 2$, and let $E$ be a holomorphic vector bundle of rank $N$ over $X$. In this paper, ${𝒞}^k$-estimates, $k=2,3,\cdots ,\infty$, for solutions to the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with small loss of smoothness are obtained for $E$-valued $(0,s)$-forms on $D$ when $n-q\le s\le n$. In addition, we solve the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with a support condition in ${𝒞}^k$-spaces. More precisely, we prove that for a $\overline{\partial }$-closed form $f$ in ${𝒞}_{0,q}^k(X\setminus D,E)$, $1\le q\le n-2$, $n\ge 3$, with compact support and for $\epsilon$ with $0<\epsilon <1$ there...

It is known that $ℬ\left({\ell }^p\right)$ is not amenable for p = 1,2,∞, but whether or not $ℬ\left({\ell }^p\right)$ is amenable for p ∈ (1,∞) ∖ 2 is an open problem. We show that, if $ℬ\left({\ell }^p\right)$ is amenable for p ∈ (1,∞), then so are ${\ell }^{\infty }\left(ℬ\left({\ell }^p\right)\right)$ and ${\ell }^{\infty }\left(\left({\ell }^p\right)\right)$. Moreover, if ${\ell }^{\infty }\left(\left({\ell }^p\right)\right)$ is amenable so is ${\ell }^{\infty }(,\left(E\right))$ for any index set and for any infinite-dimensional ${ℒ}^p$-space E; in particular, if ${\ell }^{\infty }\left(\left({\ell }^p\right)\right)$ is amenable for p ∈ (1,∞), then so is ${\ell }^{\infty }\left(\left({\ell }^p\oplus \ell ²\right)\right)$. We show that ${\ell }^{\infty }\left(\left({\ell }^p\oplus \ell ²\right)\right)$ is not amenable for p = 1,∞, but also that our methods fail us if p ∈ (1,∞). Finally, for p ∈ (1,2) and a free ultrafilter over...
