Weak type estimates associated to Burkholder's martingale inequality.
Let f be a nonnegative submartingale and S(f) denote its square function. We show that for any λ > 0, , and the constant π/2 is the best possible. The inequality is strict provided ∥f∥₁ ≠ 0.
We deal with real weakly stationary processes with non-positive autocorrelations , i. e. it is assumed that for all . We show that such processes have some special interesting properties. In particular, it is shown that each such a process can be represented as a linear process. Sufficient conditions under which the resulting process satisfies for all are provided as well.
Let X be a homogeneous space and let E be a UMD Banach space with a normalized unconditional basis . Given an operator T from to L¹(X), we consider the vector-valued extension T̃ of T given by . We prove a weighted integral inequality for the vector-valued extension of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator and a weighted Fefferman-Stein inequality between the vector-valued extensions of the Hardy-Littlewood and the sharp maximal operators, in the context of Orlicz spaces. We give sufficient...
We prove sharp estimates on the expected number of windings of a simple random walk on the square or triangular lattice. This gives new lower bounds on the averaged Dehn function, which measures the expected area needed to fill a random curve with a disc.
