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 < ∞.

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

Let ${\alpha }_i,{\beta }_i>0$, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, and for t > 0 and x = (x₁,...,xₙ) ∈ ℝⁿ, let $t•x=(t^{\alpha ₁}x₁,...,t^{\alpha ₙ}xₙ)$, $t\circ x=(t^{\beta ₁}x₁,...,t^{\beta ₙ}xₙ)$ and $\left|\right|x\left|\right|={\sum }_{i=1}^n{\left|x_i\right|}^{1/{\alpha }_i}$. Let φ₁,...,φₙ be real functions in $C^{\infty }(ℝⁿ-0)$ such that φ = (φ₁,..., φₙ) satisfies φ(t • x) = t ∘ φ(x). Let γ > 0 and let μ be the Borel measure on ${ℝ}^{2n}$ given by $\mu \left(E\right)={\int }_{ℝⁿ}{\chi }_E{(x,\phi \left(x\right))\left|\right|x\left|\right|}^{\gamma -\alpha }dx$, where $\alpha ={\sum }_{i=1}^n{\alpha }_i$ and dx denotes the Lebesgue measure on ℝⁿ. Let $T_{\mu }f=\mu \ast f$ and let $\left|\right|T_{\mu }{\left|\right|}_{p,q}$ be the operator norm of $T_{\mu }$ from $L^p\left({ℝ}^{2n}\right)$ into $L^q\left({ℝ}^{2n}\right)$, where the $L^p$ spaces are taken with respect to the Lebesgue measure. The type set $E_{\mu }$ is defined by $E_{\mu }=(1/p,1/q):\left|\right|T_{\mu }{\left|\right|}_{p,q}<\infty ,1\le p,q\le \infty$. In the case ${\alpha }_i\ne {\beta }_k$ for 1 ≤ i,k ≤ n we characterize the...

We consider $C^2$ families $t\mapsto f_t$ of $C^4$ unimodal maps $f_t$ whose critical point is slowly recurrent, and we show that the unique absolutely continuous invariant measure ${\mu }_t$ of $f_t$ depends differentiably on $t$, as a distribution of order $1$. The proof uses transfer operators on towers whose level boundaries are mollified via smooth cutoff functions, in order to avoid artificial discontinuities. We give a new representation of ${\mu }_t$ for a Benedicks-Carleson map $f_t$, in terms of a single smooth function and the...

Let $L\left(H\right)$ denote the algebra of operators on a complex infinite dimensional Hilbert space $H$. For $A,B\in L\left(H\right)$, the generalized derivation ${\delta }_{A,B}$ and the elementary operator ${\Delta }_{A,B}$ are defined by ${\delta }_{A,B}\left(X\right)=AX-XB$ and ${\Delta }_{A,B}\left(X\right)=AXB-X$ for all $X\in L\left(H\right)$. In this paper, we exhibit pairs $(A,B)$ of operators such that the range-kernel orthogonality of ${\delta }_{A,B}$ holds for the usual operator norm. We generalize some recent results. We also establish some theorems on the orthogonality of the range and the kernel of ${\Delta }_{A,B}$ with respect to the wider class of unitarily invariant...

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.

In this paper, we obtain new sufficient conditions for the operators $F_{{\alpha }_1,{\alpha }_2,...,{\alpha }_n,\beta }\left(z\right)$ and $G_{{\alpha }_1,{\alpha }_2,...,{\alpha }_n,\beta }\left(z\right)$ to be univalent in the open unit disc $𝒰$, where the functions $f_1,f_2,...,f_n$ belong to the classes $S^{*}(a,b)$ and $𝒦(a,b)$. The order of convexity for the operators $F_{{\alpha }_1,{\alpha }_2,...,{\alpha }_n,\beta }\left(z\right)$ and $G_{{\alpha }_1,{\alpha }_2,...,{\alpha }_n,\beta }\left(z\right)$ is also determined. Furthermore, and for $\beta =1$, we obtain sufficient conditions for the operators $F_n\left(z\right)$ and $G_n\left(z\right)$ to be in the class $𝒦(a,b)$. Several corollaries and consequences of the main results are also considered.

Let $X$ be a Banach space, $ℬ\left(X\right)$ the algebra of bounded linear operators on $X$ and $(J,\parallel ·{\parallel }_J)$ an admissible Banach ideal of $ℬ\left(X\right)$. For $T\in ℬ\left(X\right)$, let $L_{J,T}$ and $R_{J,T}\in ℬ\left(J\right)$ denote the left and right multiplication defined by $L_{J,T}\left(A\right)=TA$ and $R_{J,T}\left(A\right)=AT$, respectively. In this paper, we study the transmission of some concepts related to recurrent operators between $T\in ℬ\left(X\right)$, and their elementary operators $L_{J,T}$ and $R_{J,T}$. In particular, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for $L_{J,T}$ and $R_{J,T}$ to be sequentially recurrent. Furthermore, we prove that $L_{J,T}$ is recurrent...

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....

Let 1 ≤ p < ∞, $={\left(Xₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of Banach spaces and $l_p\left(\right)$ the coresponding vector valued sequence space. Let $={\left(Xₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$, $={\left(Yₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be two sequences of Banach spaces, $={\left(Vₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$, Vₙ: Xₙ → Yₙ, a sequence of bounded linear operators and 1 ≤ p,q < ∞. We define the multiplication operator $M_{}:l_p\left(\right)\to l_q\left(\right)$ by $M_{}\left({\left(xₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}\right):={\left(Vₙ\left(xₙ\right)\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $M_{}$ to be 2-summing when (p,q) is one of the couples (1,2), (2,1), (2,2), (1,1), (p,1), (p,2), (2,p), (1,p), (p,q); in the last case 1 < p < 2, 1 < q < ∞. ...

Let $ℐ$ be a coherent subsheaf of a locally free sheaf $𝒪\left(E_0\right)$ and suppose that $ℱ=𝒪\left(E_0\right)/ℐ$ has pure codimension. Starting with a residue current $R$ obtained from a locally free resolution of $ℱ$ we construct a vector-valued Coleff-Herrera current $\mu$ with support on the variety associated to $ℱ$ such that $\phi$ is in $ℐ$ if and only if $\mu \phi =0$. Such a current $\mu$ can also be derived algebraically from a fundamental theorem of Roos about the bidualizing functor, and the relation between these two approaches is discussed....

For an injective map τ acting on the dyadic subintervals of the unit interval [0,1) we define the rearrangement operator $T_s$, 0 < s < 2, to be the linear extension of the map $\left(h_I\right)/{\left(\right|I|}^{1/s})\mapsto \left(h_{\tau \left(I\right)}\right)\left(\right|\tau \left(I\right){|}^{1/s})$, where $h_I$ denotes the $L^{\infty }$-normalized Haar function supported on the dyadic interval I. We prove the following extrapolation result: If there exists at least one 0 < s₀ < 2 such that $T_{s₀}$ is bounded on $H^{s₀}$, then for all 0 < s < 2 the operator $T_s$ is bounded on $H^s$.

We define a new function space $B$, which contains in particular BMO, BV, and $W^{1/p,p}$, $1<p<\infty$. We investigate its embedding into Lebesgue and Marcinkiewicz spaces. We present several inequalities involving $L^p$ norms of integer-valued functions in $B$. We introduce a significant closed subspace, $B_0$, of $B$, containing in particular VMO and $W^{1/p,p}$, $1\le p<\infty$. The above mentioned estimates imply in particular that integer-valued functions belonging to $B_0$ are necessarily constant. This framework provides a “common roof”...

Let $\mathscr{H}$ be a complex Hilbert space, $A$ a positive operator with closed range in $ℬ\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$ and ${ℬ}_A\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$ the sub-algebra of $ℬ\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$ of all $A$-self-adjoint operators. Assume $\phi :{ℬ}_A\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$ onto itself is a linear continuous map. This paper shows that if $\phi$ preserves $A$-unitary operators such that $\phi \left(I\right)=P$ then $\psi$ defined by $\psi \left(T\right)=P\phi \left(PT\right)$ is a homomorphism or an anti-homomorphism and $\psi \left(T^{♯}\right)=\psi {\left(T\right)}^{♯}$ for all $T\in {ℬ}_A\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$, where $P=A^{+}A$ and $A^{+}$ is the Moore-Penrose inverse of $A$. A similar result is also true if $\phi$ preserves $A$-quasi-unitary operators in both directions such that there...

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 Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$, let $K_{w^{*}}(X^{*},Y)$ denote the space of all $w^{*}-w$ continuous compact operators from $X^{*}$ to $Y$ endowed with the operator norm. A Banach space $X$ has the $wGP$ property if every Grothendieck subset of $X$ is relatively weakly compact. In this paper we study Banach spaces with property $wGP$. We investigate whether the spaces $K_{w^{*}}(X^{*},Y)$ and $X{\otimes }_{ϵ}Y$ have the $wGP$ property, when $X$ and $Y$ have the $wGP$ property.

Let $u$ be a holomorphic function and $\varphi$ a holomorphic self-map of the open unit disk $𝔻$ in the complex plane. We provide new characterizations for the boundedness of the weighted composition operators $u{C}_{\varphi }$ from Zygmund type spaces to Bloch type spaces in $𝔻$ in terms of $u$, $\varphi$, their derivatives, and ${\varphi }^n$, the $n$-th power of $\varphi$. Moreover, we obtain some similar estimates for the essential norms of the operators $u{C}_{\varphi }$, from which sufficient and necessary conditions of compactness of $u{C}_{\varphi }$ follows immediately. ...
