Maximal functions related to subelliptic operators invariant under an action of a solvable Lie group

Ewa Damek, Andrzej Hulanicki (1991)

Studia Mathematica

On the domain S_a = {(x,e^b): x ∈ N, b ∈ ℝ, b > a} where N is a simply connected nilpotent Lie group, a certain N-left-invariant, second order, degenerate elliptic operator L is considered. N × {e^a} is the Poisson boundary for L-harmonic functions F, i.e. F is the Poisson integral F(xe^b) = ʃ_N f(xy)dμ^b_a(x), for an f in L^∞(N). The main theorem of the paper asserts that the maximal function M^a f(x) = sup{|ʃf(xy)dμ_a^b(y)| : b > a} is of weak type (1,1).

Minimality and unique ergodicity for subgroup actions

Shahar Mozes, Barak Weiss (1998)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Let G be an -algebraic semisimple group, H an algebraic -subgroup, and Γ a lattice in G . Partially answering a question posed by Hillel Furstenberg in 1972, we prove that if the action of H on G / Γ is minimal, then it is uniquely ergodic. Our proof uses in an essential way Marina Ratner’s classification of probability measures on G / Γ invariant under unipotent elements, and the study of “tubes” in G / Γ .

Moser-Trudinger and logarithmic HLS inequalities for systems

Itai Shafrir, Gershon Wolansky (2005)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We prove several optimal Moser–Trudinger and logarithmic Hardy–Littlewood–Sobolev inequalities for systems in two dimensions. These include inequalities on the sphere S 2 , on a bounded domain Ω 2 and on all of 2 . In some cases we also address the question of existence of minimizers.
