Let ${K_t}_{t>0}$ be the semigroup of linear operators generated by a Schrödinger operator -L = Δ - V with V ≥ 0. We say that f belongs to $H{¹}_L$ if $\left|\right|su{p}_{t>0}|K_t{f\left(x\right)\left|\right||}_{L¹\left(dx\right)}<\infty$. We state conditions on V and $K_t$ which allow us to give an atomic characterization of the space $H{¹}_L$.

We study the order boundedness of composition operators induced by holomorphic self-maps of the open unit disc D. We consider these operators first on the Hardy spaces $H^p$ 0 < p < ∞ and then on the Nevanlinna class N. Given a non-negative increasing function h on [0,∞[, a composition operator is said to be X,Lh-order bounded (we write (X,Lh)-ob) with $X=H^p$ or X = N if its composition with the map f ↦ f*, where f* denotes the radial limit of f, is order bounded from X into $L_h$. We give...

Motivated by some recent results by Li and Stević, in this paper we prove that a two-parameter family of Cesàro averaging operators ${}^{b,c}$ is bounded on the Dirichlet spaces ${}_{p,a}$. We also give a short and direct proof of boundedness of ${}^{b,c}$ on the Hardy space $H^p$ for 1 < p < ∞.

Let ${ℒ}_1=-\Delta +V$ be a Schrödinger operator and let ${ℒ}_2={(-\Delta )}^2+V^2$ be a Schrödinger type operator on ${ℝ}^n$ $(n\ge 5)$, where $V\ne 0$ is a nonnegative potential belonging to certain reverse Hölder class $B_s$ for $s\ge n/2$. The Hardy type space $H_{{ℒ}_2}^1$ is defined in terms of the maximal function with respect to the semigroup $\left\{{\mathrm{e}}^{-t{ℒ}_2}\right\}$ and it is identical to the Hardy space $H_{{ℒ}_1}^1$ established by Dziubański and Zienkiewicz. In this article, we prove the $L^p$-boundedness of the commutator ${ℛ}_b=bℛf-ℛ\left(bf\right)$ generated by the Riesz transform $ℛ={\nabla }^2{ℒ}_2^{-1/2}$, where $b\in {\mathrm{BMO}}_{\theta }\left(\rho \right)$, which is larger...

We introduce the definition of $p$-limited completely continuous operators, $1\le p<\infty$. The question of whether a space of operators has the property that every $p$-limited subset is relative compact when the dual of the domain and the codomain have this property is studied using $p$-limited completely continuous evaluation operators.

In this paper the hyponormal operators on Krein spaces are introduced. We state conditions for the hyponormality of bounded operators focusing, in particular, on those operators $T$ for which there exists a fundamental decomposition $𝕂={𝕂}^{+}\oplus {𝕂}^{-}$ of the Krein space $𝕂$ with ${𝕂}^{+}$ and ${𝕂}^{-}$ invariant under $T$.

Results of Emmanuele and Drewnowski are used to study the containment of c₀ in the space $K_{w*}(X*,Y)$, as well as the complementation of the space $K_{w*}(X*,Y)$ of w*-w compact operators in the space $L_{w*}(X*,Y)$ of w*-w operators from X* to Y.

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.

Let $(X,d,\mu )$ be a metric measure space endowed with a distance $d$ and a nonnegative Borel doubling measure $\mu$. Let $L$ be a non-negative self-adjoint operator of order $m$ on $L^2\left(X\right)$. Assume that the semigroup ${\mathrm{e}}^{-tL}$ generated by $L$ satisfies the Davies-Gaffney estimate of order $m$ and $L$ satisfies the Plancherel type estimate. Let $H_L^p\left(X\right)$ be the Hardy space associated with $L.$ We show the boundedness of Stein’s square function ${𝒢}_{\delta }\left(L\right)$ arising from Bochner-Riesz means associated to $L$ from Hardy spaces $H_L^p\left(X\right)$ to $L^p\left(X\right)$, and also study...

We present a novel approach for bounding the resolvent of $$H=-\Delta +i(A·\nabla +\nabla ·A)+V=:-\Delta +L1$$ for large energies. It is shown here that there exist a large integer $m$ and a large number ${\lambda }_0$ so that relative to the usual weighted $L^2$-norm, $$\parallel {\left(L{(-\Delta +(\lambda +i0))}^{-1}\right)}^m\parallel <\frac{1}{2}2$$ for all $\lambda >{\lambda }_0$. This requires suitable decay and smoothness conditions on $A,V$. The estimate (2) is trivial when $A=0$, but difficult for large $A$ since the gradient term exactly cancels the natural decay of the free resolvent. To obtain (2), we introduce a conical decomposition of the resolvent and...

Let $L$ be a second order divergence form elliptic operator with complex bounded measurable coefficients. The operators arising in connection with $L$, such as the heat semigroup and Riesz transform, are not, in general, of Calderón-Zygmund type and exhibit behavior different from their counterparts built upon the Laplacian. The current paper aims at a thorough description of the properties of such operators in $L^p$, Sobolev, and some new Hardy spaces naturally associated to $L$. First, we show...

We prove an interpolatory estimate linking the directional Haar projection $P^{\left(\epsilon \right)}$ to the Riesz transform in the context of Bochner-Lebesgue spaces $L^p(ℝⁿ;X)$, 1 < p < ∞, provided X is a UMD-space. If ${\epsilon }_{i₀}=1$, the result is the inequality $\left|\right|P^{\left(\epsilon \right)}{u\left|\right|}_{L^p(ℝⁿ;X)}{\le C\left|\right|u\left|\right|}_{L^p(ℝⁿ;X)}^{1/}\left|\right|R_{i₀}u{\left|\right|}_{L^p(ℝⁿ;X)}^{1-1/}$, (1) where the constant C depends only on n, p, the UMD-constant of X and the Rademacher type of $L^p(ℝⁿ;X)$. In order to obtain the interpolatory result (1) we analyze stripe operators $S_{\lambda }$, λ ≥ 0, which are used as basic building blocks to dominate the directional Haar projection....

Given 0 < p,q < ∞ and any sequence z = zₙ in the unit disc , we define an operator from functions on to sequences by $T_{z,p}\left(f\right)={(1-|zₙ\left|²\right)}^{1/p}f\left(zₙ\right)$. Necessary and sufficient conditions on zₙ are given such that $T_{z,p}$ maps the Hardy space $H^p$ boundedly into the sequence space ${\ell }^q$. A corresponding result for Bergman spaces is also stated.

We investigate the construction of Carleson measures from families of multilinear integral operators applied to tuples of $L^{\infty }$ and BMO functions. We show that if the family $R_t$ of multilinear operators has cancellation in each variable, then for BMO functions b₁, ..., bₘ, the measure $|R_t(b₁,...,bₘ)\left(x\right)|²dxdt/t$ is Carleson. However, if the family of multilinear operators has cancellation in all variables combined, this result is still valid if $b_j$ are $L^{\infty }$ functions, but it may fail if $b_j$ are unbounded BMO functions, as...

We classify, up to isomorphism, the spaces of compact operators (E,F), where E and F are the Banach spaces of all continuous functions defined on the compact spaces $2^{}\times [0,\alpha ]$, the topological products of Cantor cubes $2^{}$ and intervals of ordinal numbers [0,α].

We prove trace inequalities of type $\left|\right|u^{\text{'}}{\left|\right|}_{L^2}^2+{\sum }_{j\in \mathbb{Z}}{k}_j|u\left(a_j\right){|}^2{\ge \lambda \left|\right|u\left|\right|}_{L^2}^2$ where $u\in H^1\left(ℝ\right)$, under suitable hypotheses on the sequences ${a_j}_{j\in \mathbb{Z}}$ and ${k_j}_{j\in \mathbb{Z}}$, with the first sequence increasing and the second bounded.

The case $p=1$ answers a question asked by Rosenthal in 1976.

We study the space of p-compact operators, ${}_p$, using the theory of tensor norms and operator ideals. We prove that ${}_p$ is associated to $/d_p$, the left injective associate of the Chevet-Saphar tensor norm $d_p$ (which is equal to $g_{p^{\text{'}}}^{\text{'}}$). This allows us to relate the theory of p-summing operators to that of p-compact operators. Using the results known for the former class and appropriate hypotheses on E and F we prove that ${}_p(E;F)$ is equal to ${}_q(E;F)$ for a wide range of values of p and q, and show that our results...

Let $L$ be a non-negative self-adjoint operator acting on $L^2\left({ℝ}^n\right)$ satisfying a pointwise Gaussian estimate for its heat kernel. Let $w$ be an $A_r$ weight on ${ℝ}^n\times {ℝ}^n$, $1<r<\infty$. In this article we obtain a weighted atomic decomposition for the weighted Hardy space $H_{L,w}^p({ℝ}^n\times {ℝ}^n)$, $0<p\le 1$ associated to $L$. Based on the atomic decomposition, we show the dual relationship between $H_{L,w}^1({ℝ}^n\times {ℝ}^n)$ and ${\mathrm{BMO}}_{L,w}({ℝ}^n\times {ℝ}^n)$.
