A variety of results regarding multilinear singular Calderón-Zygmund integral operators is systematically presented. Several tools and techniques for the study of such operators are discussed. These include new multilinear endpoint weak type estimates, multilinear interpolation, appropriate discrete decompositions, a multilinear version of Schur's test, and a multilinear version of the T1 Theorem suitable for the study of multilinear pseudodifferential and translation invariant operators. A maximal...

We consider the Neumann problem involving the critical Sobolev exponent and a nonhomogeneous boundary condition. We establish the existence of two solutions. We use the method of sub- and supersolutions, a local minimization and the mountain-pass principle.

It is proved that a Musielak-Orlicz space LΦ of real valued functions which is isometric to a Hilbert space coincides with L2 up to a weight, that is Φ(u,t) = c(t) u2. Moreover it is shown that any surjective isometry between LΦ and L∞ is a weighted composition operator and a criterion for LΦ to be isometric to L∞ is presented.

The purpose of the paper is to introduce and study a new class of operators on semi-Hilbertian spaces, i.e. spaces generated by positive semi-definite sesquilinear forms. Let $\mathscr{H}$ be a Hilbert space and let $A$ be a positive bounded operator on $\mathscr{H}$. The semi-inner product ${\langle h\mid k\rangle }_A:=\langle Ah\mid k\rangle$, $h,k\in \mathscr{H}$, induces a semi-norm ${\parallel ·\parallel }_A$. This makes $\mathscr{H}$ into a semi-Hilbertian space. An operator $T\in {ℬ}_A\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$ is said to be $(n,m)$-$A$-normal if $[T^n,{\left(T^{{♯}_A}\right)}^m]:=T^n{\left(T^{{♯}_A}\right)}^m-{\left(T^{{♯}_A}\right)}^m{T}^n=0$ for some positive integers $n$ and $m$.

We give several necessary and sufficient conditions in order that a bounded linear operator on a Banach space be nilpotent. We also discuss three necessary conditions for nilpotency. Furthermore, we construct an infinite family (in one-to-one correspondence with the square-summable sequences ${\left(\epsilon ₙ\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of strictly positive real numbers) of nonnilpotent quasinilpotent operators on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, all the iterates of each of which have closed range. Each of these operators (as well as...

Let T be a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space . For positive integers n and k, an operator T is called (n,k)-quasiparanormal if $\left|\right|T^{1+n}\left(T^{k}x\right){\left|\right|}^{1/(1+n)}\left|\right|T^k{x\left|\right|}^{n/(1+n)}\ge \left|\right|T\left(T^{k}x\right)\left|\right|$ for x ∈ . The class of (n,k)-quasiparanormal operators contains the classes of n-paranormal and k-quasiparanormal operators. We consider some properties of (n,k)-quasiparanormal operators: (1) inclusion relations and examples; (2) a matrix representation and SVEP (single valued extension property); (3) ascent and Bishop’s property (β); (4) quasinilpotent...
