We prove the $L^p$ boundedness of the Marcinkiewicz integral operators ${\mu }_{\Omega }$ on ${ℝ}^{n₁}\times \cdots \times {ℝ}^{n_k}$ under the condition that $\Omega \in L{\left(logL\right)}^{k/2}{(}^{n₁-1}\times \cdots {\times }^{n_k-1})$. The exponent k/2 is the best possible. This answers an open question posed by Y. Ding.

Let $W$ be the subspace of ${\mathbb{N}}^{*}$ consisting of all weak $P$-points. It is not hard to see that $W$ is a pseudocompact space. In this paper we shall prove that this space has stronger pseudocompact properties. Indeed, it is shown that $W$ is a $p$-pseudocompact space for all $p\in {\mathbb{N}}^{*}$.

Let $X$ be the Tychonoff product ${\prod }_{\alpha <\tau }{X}_{\alpha }$ of $\tau$-many Tychonoff non-single point spaces $X_{\alpha }$. Let $p\in X^{*}$ be a point in the closure of some $G\subset X$ whose weak Lindelöf number is strictly less than the cofinality of $\tau$. Then we show that $\beta X\setminus \left\{p\right\}$ is not normal. Under some additional assumptions, $p$ is a butterfly-point in $\beta X$. In particular, this is true if either $X={\omega }^{\tau }$ or $X=R^{\tau }$ and $\tau$ is infinite and not countably cofinal.

Let ${}_s$ be the family of open rectangles in the plane ℝ² with a side of angle s to the x-axis. We say that a set S of directions is an R-set if there exists a function f ∈ L¹(ℝ²) such that the basis ${}_s$ differentiates the integral of f if s ∉ S, and $D{̅}_{s}f\left(x\right)=limsu{p}_{diam\left(R\right)\to 0,x\in R{\in }_s}{\left|R\right|}^{-1}{\int }_{R}f=\infty$ almost everywhere if s ∈ S. If the condition $D{̅}_{s}f\left(x\right)=\infty$ holds on a set of positive measure (instead of a.e.) we say that S is a WR-set. It is proved that S is an R-set (resp. a WR-set) if and only if it is a $G_{\delta }$ (resp. a $G_{\delta \sigma }$).

Let $D_j$ be a bounded hyperconvex domain in ${ℂ}^{n_j}$ and set $D=D₁\times \cdots \times D_s$, j=1,...,s, s ≥ 3. Also let ${\Omega }_{\pi }$ be the image of D under the proper holomorphic map π. We characterize those continuous functions $f:\partial {\Omega }_{\pi }\to ℝ$ that can be extended to a real-valued pluriharmonic function in ${\Omega }_{\pi }$.

Let $X$ be a Stein manifold of complex dimension $n\ge 2$ and $\Omega ⋐X$ be a relatively compact domain with $C^2$ smooth boundary in $X$. Assume that $\Omega$ is a weakly $q$-pseudoconvex domain in $X$. The purpose of this paper is to establish sufficient conditions for the closed range of $\overline{\partial }$ on $\Omega$. Moreover, we study the $\overline{\partial }$-problem on $\Omega$. Specifically, we use the modified weight function method to study the weighted $\overline{\partial }$-problem with exact support in $\Omega$. Our method relies on the $L^2$-estimates by Hörmander (1965) and by Kohn (1973). ...

For $X,Y\in {𝐌}_{n,m}$ it is said that $X$ is gut-majorized by $Y$, and we write $X{\prec }_{\mathrm{gut}}Y$, if there exists an $n$-by-$n$ upper triangular g-row stochastic matrix $R$ such that $X=RY$. Define the relation ${\sim }_{\mathrm{gut}}$ as follows. $X{\sim }_{\mathrm{gut}}Y$ if $X$ is gut-majorized by $Y$ and $Y$ is gut-majorized by $X$. The (strong) linear preservers of ${\prec }_{\mathrm{gut}}$ on ${ℝ}^n$ and strong linear preservers of this relation on ${𝐌}_{n,m}$ have been characterized before. This paper characterizes all (strong) linear preservers and strong linear preservers of ${\sim }_{\mathrm{gut}}$ on ${ℝ}^n$ and ${𝐌}_{n,m}$.

Let $\Omega \in L^s\left({\mathrm{S}}^{n-1}\right)$ for $s\ge 1$ be a homogeneous function of degree zero and $b$ a BMO function. The commutator generated by the Marcinkiewicz integral ${\mu }_{\Omega }$ and $b$ is defined by $${\displaystyle [b,{\mu }_{\Omega }]\left(f\right)\left(x\right)=({\int }_0^{\infty }{\left|{\int }_{|x-y|\le t}\frac{\Omega (x-y)}{{|x-y|}^{n-1}}[b\left(x\right)-b\left(y\right)]f\left(y\right)\mathrm{d}y{|}^2\frac{\mathrm{d}t}{t^3}\right)}^{1/2}.}$$ In this paper, the author proves the $(L^{p(·)}\left({ℝ}^n\right),L^{p(·)}\left({ℝ}^n\right))$-boundedness of the Marcinkiewicz integral operator ${\mu }_{\Omega }$ and its commutator $[b,{\mu }_{\Omega }]$ when $p(·)$ satisfies some conditions. Moreover, the author obtains the corresponding result about ${\mu }_{\Omega }$ and $[b,{\mu }_{\Omega }]$ on Herz spaces with variable exponent.

For each n ≥ 1, let $v_{n,k},k\ge 1$ and $u_{n,k},k\ge 1$ be mutually independent sequences of nonnegative random variables and let each of them consist of mutually independent and identically distributed random variables with means v̅ₙ and u̅̅ₙ, respectively. Let $X{ₙ}^B\left(t\right)=(1/cₙ){\sum }_{j=1}^{\left[nt\right]}(v_{n,j}-v̅ₙ)$, $X{ₙ}^A\left(t\right)=(1/cₙ){\sum }_{j=1}^{\left[nt\right]}(u_{n,j}-u̅̅ₙ)$, t ≥ 0, and $Xₙ=X{ₙ}^B-X{ₙ}^A$. The main result gives conditions under which the weak convergence $Xₙ\stackrel{}{\to }X$, where X is a Lévy process, implies $X{ₙ}^B\stackrel{}{\to }{X}^B$ and $X{ₙ}^A\stackrel{}{\to }{X}^A$, where $X^B$ and $X^A$ are mutually independent Lévy processes and $X=X^B-X^A$.

In a Tychonoff space $X$, the point $p\in X$ is called a $C^{*}$-point if every real-valued continuous function on $C\setminus \left\{p\right\}$ can be extended continuously to $p$. Every point in an extremally disconnected space is a $C^{*}$-point. A classic example is the space ${𝐖}^{*}={\omega }_1+1$ consisting of the countable ordinals together with ${\omega }_1$. The point ${\omega }_1$ is known to be a $C^{*}$-point as well as a $P$-point. We supply a characterization of $C^{*}$-points in totally ordered spaces. The remainder of our time is aimed at studying when a point in a product space...

Let 1 < p < ∞, q = p/(p-1) and for $f\in L^p(0,\infty )$ define $F\left(x\right)=(1/x){ʃ}_0^{x}f\left(t\right)dt$, x > 0. Moser’s Inequality states that there is a constant $C_p$ such that $su{p}_{a\le 1}su{p}_{f\in B_p}{ʃ}_0^{\infty }exp[a{x}^q{\left|F\left(x\right)\right|}^q-x]dx=C_p$ where $B_p$ is the unit ball of $L^p$. Moreover, the value a = 1 is sharp. We observe that $F=K_1$ f where the integral operator $K_1$ has a simple kernel K. We consider the question of for what kernels K(t,x), 0 ≤ t, x < ∞, this result can be extended, and proceed to discuss this when K is non-negative and homogeneous of degree -1. A sufficient condition on K is found for...

We prove that for a normed linear space $X$, if $f_1:X\to ℝ$ is continuous and semiconvex with modulus $\omega$, $f_2:X\to ℝ$ is continuous and semiconcave with modulus $\omega$ and $f_1\le f_2$, then there exists $f\in C^{1,\omega }\left(X\right)$ such that $f_1\le f\le f_2$. Using this result we prove a generalization of Ilmanen lemma (which deals with the case $\omega \left(t\right)=t$) to the case of an arbitrary nontrivial modulus $\omega$. This generalization (where a $C_{loc}^{1,\omega }$ function is inserted) gives a positive answer to a problem formulated by A. Fathi and M. Zavidovique in 2010.
