We prove that peak shaped eigenfunctions of the one-dimensional uncentered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator are symmetric and homogeneous. This implies that the norms of the maximal operator on L(p) spaces are not attained.
For two strictly elliptic operators L₀ and L₁ on the unit ball in ℝⁿ, whose coefficients have a difference function that satisfies a Carleson-type condition, it is shown that a pointwise comparison concerning Lusin area integrals is valid. This result is used to prove that if L₁u₁ = 0 in B₁(0) and then lies in the exponential square class whenever L₀ is an operator so that L₀u₀ = 0 and implies is in the exponential square class; here S is the Lusin area integral. The exponential square theorem,...
A simple expression is presented that is equivalent to the norm of the Lpv → Lqu embedding of the cone of quasi-concave functions in the case 0 < q < p < ∞. The result is extended to more general cones and the case q = 1 is used to prove a reduction principle which shows that questions of boundedness of operators on these cones may be reduced to the boundedness of related operators on whole spaces. An equivalent norm for the dual of the Lorentz spaceΓp(v) = { f: ( ∫0∞ (f**)pv...
We prove endpoint bounds for the square function associated with radial Fourier multipliers acting on radial functions. This is a consequence of endpoint bounds for a corresponding square function for Hankel multipliers. We obtain a sharp Marcinkiewicz-type multiplier theorem for multivariate Hankel multipliers and bounds of maximal operators generated by Hankel multipliers as corollaries. The proof is built on techniques developed by Garrigós and Seeger for characterizations of Hankel multipliers....
We investigate weighted inequalities for fractional maximal operators and fractional integral operators.We work within the innovative framework of “entropy bounds” introduced by Treil–Volberg. Using techniques developed by Lacey and the second author, we are able to efficiently prove the weighted inequalities.
We study the tridimensional Navier-Stokes equation when the value of the vertical viscosity is zero, in a critical space (invariant by the scaling). We shall prove local in time existence of the solution, respectively global in time when the initial data is small compared with the horizontal viscosity.
Recently, the weak Triebel-Lizorkin space was introduced by Grafakos and He, which includes the standard Triebel-Lizorkin space as a subset. The latter has a wide applications in aspects of analysis. In this paper, the authors firstly give equivalent quasi-norms of weak Triebel-Lizorkin spaces in terms of Peetre's maximal functions. As an application of those equivalent quasi-norms, an atomic decomposition of weak Triebel-Lizorkin spaces is given.
Jones and Rosenblatt started the study of an ergodic transform which is analogous to the martingale transform. In this paper we present a unified treatment of the ergodic transforms associated to positive groups induced by nonsingular flows and to general means which include the usual averages, Cesàro-α averages and Abel means. We prove the boundedness in , 1 < p < ∞, of the maximal ergodic transforms assuming that the semigroup is Cesàro bounded in . For p = 1 we find that the maximal ergodic...
It is shown that maximal truncations of nonconvolution L²-bounded singular integral operators with kernels satisfying Hörmander’s condition are weak type (1,1) and -bounded for 1 < p< ∞. Under stronger smoothness conditions, such estimates can be obtained using a generalization of Cotlar’s inequality. This inequality is not applicable here and the point of this article is to treat the boundedness of such maximal singular integral operators in an alternative way.
We study singular integrals with rough kernels, which belong to a class of singular Radon transforms. We prove certain estimates for the singular integrals that are useful in an extrapolation argument. As an application, we prove boundedness of the singular integrals under a certain sharp size condition on their kernels.
