Let Π₂ be the operator ideal of all absolutely 2-summing operators and let $I_m$ be the identity map of the m-dimensional linear space. We first establish upper estimates for some mixing norms of $I_m$. Employing these estimates, we study the embedding operators between Besov function spaces as mixing operators. The result obtained is applied to give sufficient conditions under which certain kinds of integral operators, acting on a Besov function space, belong to Π₂; in this context, we also consider the...

In strictly pseudoconvex domains with smooth boundary, we prove a commutator relationship between admissible integral operators, as introduced by Lieb and Range, and smooth vector fields which are tangential at boundary points. This makes it possible to gain estimates for admissible operators in function spaces which involve tangential derivatives. Examples are given under with circumstances these can be transformed into genuine Sobolev- and Ck-estimates.

We study the method of layer potentials for manifolds with boundary and cylindrical ends. The fact that the boundary is non-compact prevents us from using the standard characterization of Fredholm or compact pseudo-differential operators between Sobolev spaces, as, for example, in the works of Fabes-Jodeit-Lewis and Kral-Wedland . We first study the layer potentials depending on a parameter on compact manifolds. This then yields the invertibility of the relevant boundary integral operators in the...

Let $M_{m,n}$ be the space of all complex m × n matrices. The generalized unit disc in $M_{m,n}$ is >br>    $R_{m,n}=Z\in M_{m,n}:I^{\left(m\right)}-ZZ*ispositivedefinite$. Here $I^{\left(m\right)}\in M_{m,m}$ is the unit matrix. If 1 ≤ p < ∞ and α > -1, then $L_{\alpha }^p\left(R_{m,n}\right)$ is defined to be the space $L^p{R}_{m,n};{\left[det(I^{\left(m\right)}-ZZ*)\right]}^{\alpha }d{\mu }_{m,n}\left(Z\right)$, where ${\mu }_{m,n}$ is the Lebesgue measure in $M_{m,n}$, and $H_{\alpha }^p\left(R_{m,n}\right)\subset L_{\alpha }^p\left(R_{m,n}\right)$ is the subspace of holomorphic functions. In [8,9] M. M. Djrbashian and A. H. Karapetyan proved that, if $Re\beta >(\alpha +1)/p-1$ (for 1 < p < ∞) and Re β ≥ α (for p = 1), then     $f\left(\right)=T_{m,n}^{\beta }\left(f\right)\left(\right),\in R_{m,n},$where $T_{m,n}^{\beta }$ is the integral operator defined by (0.13)-(0.14). In the present paper, given 1 ≤ p <...

We study Fourier integral operators of Hörmander’s type acting on the spaces $ℱL^p{\left({ℝ}^d\right)}_{comp}$, 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞, of compactly supported distributions whose Fourier transform is in $L^p$. We show that the sharp loss of derivatives for such an operator to be bounded on these spaces is related to the rank r of the Hessian of the phase Φ(x,η) with respect to the space variables x. Indeed, we show that operators of order m = -r|1/2-1/p| are bounded on $ℱL^p{\left({ℝ}^d\right)}_{comp}$ if the mapping $x\mapsto {\nabla }_x\Phi (x,\eta )$ is constant on the fibres, of codimension r, of an affine...

In this paper, the boundedness of the Riesz potential generated by generalized shift operator $I_{B_k}^{\alpha }$ from the spaces $a=(L_{p_m,\nu }\left({ℝ}_n^k\right),a_m)$ to the spaces $a^{\text{'}}=(L_{q_m,\nu }\left({ℝ}_n^k\right),a_m^{\text{'}})$ is examined.

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the behavior of fractional integral operators associated to a measure on a metric space satisfying just a mild growth condition, namely that the measure of each ball is controlled by a fixed power of its radius. This allows, in particular, non-doubling measures. It turns out that this condition is enough to build up a theory that contains the classical results based upon the Lebesgue measure on Euclidean space and their known extensions for doubling...
