On an oppenheim-type conjecture for systems of quadratic forms

In this paper we establish dimension freeL ^p (ℝ ⁿ ,|x|^α) norm inequalities (1<p<∞) for the oscillation and variation of the Riesz transforms in ℝ ⁿ . In doing so we findA _p -weighted norm inequalities for the oscillation and the variation of the Hilbert transform in ℝ. Some weighted transference results are also proved.

Compactness of Commutators of Riesz Potential on Morrey Spaces

In this paper, the authors give a characterization of the (L ^{p, λ} , L ^{q, λ} )-compactness for the Riesz potential commutator [b,I _α ]. More precisely, the authors prove that the commutator [b,I _α ] is a compact operator from the Morrey space L ^{p, λ} (ℝ ⁿ ) to L ^{q, λ} (ℝ ⁿ ) if and only if b ∈ VMO(ℝ ⁿ ), the BMO-closure of .

The Helmholtz decomposition of weightedLq-spaces for Muckenhoupt weights

We consider weights of Muckenhoupt classA _q, 1<q<∞. For a bounded Lipschitz domain Ω⊂ℝⁿ we prove a compact embedding and a Poincaré inequality in weighted Sobolev spaces. These technical tools allow us to solve the weak Neumann problem for the Laplace equation in weighted spaces on ℝⁿ, ℝⁿ ₊, on bounded and on exterior domains Ω with boundary of classC ¹, which will yield the Helmholtz decomposition ofL _ω ^q(Ω)ⁿ for general ω∈A _q. This is done by transferring the method of Simader and Sohr [4] to the weighted case. Our result generalizes a result of Farwig and Sohr [2] where the Helmholtz decomposition ofL _ω ^p(Ω)ⁿ is proved for an exterior domain and weights of Muckenhoupt class without singularities or degeneracies in a neighbourhood of ϖΩ.

Sunto In questo lavoro consideriamo dei pesi della classe di MuckenhouptA _q, 1<q<∞. Per un dominio limitato lipschitziano Ω⊂ℝⁿ, dimostriamo una immersione compatta ed una disuguaglianza di Poincaré in spazi di Sobolev con peso. Questa tecnica ci consente di risolvere il problema debole di Neumann per l’equazione di Laplace in spazi pesati in ℝⁿ, ℝⁿ ₊ in domini limitati ed in domini esterni con frontiera di classeC ¹, che conduce alla decomposizione di Helmholtz diL _ω ^q(Ω)ⁿ per un qualsiasi ω∈A _q. Il risultato è ottenuto trasferendo il metodo di Simader e Sohr [4] al caso pesato. Quello qui presente estende un risultato di Farwig e Sohr [2] dove la decomposizione di Helmholtz diL _ω ^q(Ω)ⁿ è dimostrata per domini esterni e pesi della classe di Muckenhoupt privi di singolarità in un intorno di ϖΩ.

     

Note on the concentration-compactness principle for generalized Moser-Trudinger inequalities

Let Ω ⊂ ℝ ⁿ , n ≥ 2, be a bounded domain and let α < n − 1. Motivated by Theorem I.6 and Remark I.18 of [Lions P.-L., The concentration-compactness principle in the calculus of variations. The limit case. I, Rev. Mat. Iberoamericana, 1985, 1(1), 145–201] and by the results of [Černy R., Cianchi A., Hencl S., Concentration-Compactness Principle for Moser-Trudinger inequalities: new results and proofs, Ann. Mat. Pura Appl. (in press), DOI: 10.1007/s10231-011-0220-3], we give a sharp estimate of the exponent concerning the Concentration-Compactness Principle for the embedding of the Orlicz-Sobolev space W ₀¹ L ⁿ log ^α L(Ω) into the Orlicz space corresponding to a Young function that behaves like exp t ^{n/(n−1−α)} for large t. We also give the result for the case of the embedding into double and other multiple exponential spaces.     

Toeplitz operators related to strongly singular Calderón-Zygmund operators

In this paper, the boundedness of Toeplitz operator T _b(f) related to strongly singular Calderón-Zygmund operators and Lipschitz function b ε (ℝⁿ) is discussed from L ^p(ℝⁿ) to L ^q(ℝⁿ), , and from L ^p(ℝⁿ) to Triebel-Lizorkin space . We also obtain the boundedness of generalized Toeplitz operator Θ _α0 ^b from L ^p(ℝⁿ) to L ^q(ℝⁿ), . All the above results include the corresponding boundedness of commutators. Moreover, the boundedness of Toeplitz operator T _b(f) related to strongly singular Calderón-Zygmund operators and BMO function b is discussed on L ^p(ℝⁿ), 1 < p < ∞.     

Boundedness of commutators on Hardy type spaces

Let [b, T] be the commutator of the function b ∈ Lipβ(Rn) (0 ＜β≤ 1) and the CalderónZygmund singular integral operator T. The authors study the boundedness properties of [b, T] on the classical Hardy spaces and the Herz-type Hardy spaces in non-extreme cases. For the boundedness of these commutators in extreme cases, some characterizations are also given. Moreover, the authors prove that these commutators are bounded from Hardy type spaces to the weak Lebesgue or Herz spaces in extreme cases.     

BOUNDEDNESS OF VECTOR-VALUED CALDERON-ZYGMUND OPERATORS ON HERZ SPACES WITH NON-DOUBLING MEASURES

In the paper we obtain vector-valued inequalities for Calderon-Zygmund operator,simply CZO On Herz space and weak Herz space.In particular,we obtain vector-valued inequalities for CZO on Lq(Rd,│x│αdμ)space,with 1＜q＜∞,-n＜α＜n(q-1),and on L1,∞(Rd,│x│αdμ)space,with -n＜α＜0.     

Boundedness of Multilinear Operators in Herz-type Hardy Space

Let κ∈ℕ. We prove that the multilinear operators of finite sums of products of singular integrals on ℝⁿ are bounded from HK ^α1,p1 _q1 (ℝⁿ) ×···×HK ^αk,pk _qk (ℝⁿ) into HK ^α,p _q (ℝⁿ) if they have vanishing moments up to a certain order dictated by the target spaces. These conditions on vanishing moments satisfied by the multilinear operators are also necessary when α_j≥ 0 and the singular integrals considered here include the Calderón-Zygmund singular integrals and the fractional integrals of any orders.

Pseudodifferential Operators on Local Hardy Spaces

In this work, we study the continuity of pseudodifferential operators on local Hardy spaces h ^p (ℝ ⁿ ) and generalize the results due to Goldberg and Taylor by showing that operators with symbols in S _1,δ ⁰(ℝ ⁿ ), 0≤δ<1, and in some subclasses of S _1,1⁰(ℝ ⁿ ) are bounded on h ^p (ℝ ⁿ ) (0<p≤1). As an application, we study the local solvability of the planar vector field L=∂ _t +ib(x,t)∂ _x , b(x,t)≥0, in spaces of mixed norm involving Hardy spaces.

Littlewood–Paley theorem on spaces <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">t</Emphasis>)</Superscript>(ℝ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>)

We point out that if the Hardy–Littlewood maximal operator is bounded on the space L ^p(t)(ℝ), 1 < a ≤ p(t) ≤ b < ∞, t ∈ ℝ, then the well-known characterization of the spaces L ^p (ℝ), 1 < p < ∞, by the Littlewood–Paley theory extends to the space L ^p(t)(ℝ). We show that, for n > 1 , the Littlewood–Paley operator is bounded on L ^p(t) (ℝ ⁿ ), 1 < a ≤ p(t) ≤ b < ∞, t ∈ ℝ ⁿ , if and only if p(t) = const.

Penultimate limiting forms in extreme value theory

Summary Let {X _n}_n≧1 be a sequence of independent, identically distributed random variables. If the distribution function (d.f.) ofM _n=max (X ₁,…,X _n), suitably normalized with attraction coefficients {α_n}_n≧1(α_n>0) and {b _n}_n≧1, converges to a non-degenerate d.f.G(x), asn→∞, it is of interest to study the rate of convergence to that limit law and if the convergence is slow, to find other d.f.'s which better approximate the d.f. of(M _n−b_n)/a_n thanG(x), for moderaten. We thus consider differences of the formF ⁿ(a_nx+b_n)−G(x), whereG(x) is a type I d.f. of largest values, i.e.,G(x)≡Λ(x)=exp (-exp(−x)), and show that for a broad class of d.f.'sF in the domain of attraction of Λ, there is a penultimate form of approximation which is a type II [Ф _α(x)=exp (−x^−α), x>0] or a type III [Ψ _α(x)= exp (−(−x)^α), x<0] d.f. of largest values, much closer toF ⁿ(a_nx+b_n) than the ultimate itself.     

Removable singularities and non-uniqueness of solutions of a singular diffusion equation

 We prove that the solution u of the equation u _t =Δlog u, u>0, in (Ω\{x ₀})×(0,T), Ω⊂ℝ², has removable singularities at {x ₀}×(0,T) if and only if for any 0<α<1, 0<a<b<T, there exist constants ρ₀, C ₁, C ₂>0, such that C ₁ |x−x ₀|^α≤u(x,t)≤C ₂|x−x ₀|^−α holds for all 0<|x−x ₀|≤ρ₀ and a≤t≤b. As a consequence we obtain a sufficient condition for removable singularities at {∞}×(0,T) for solutions of the above equation in ℝ²×(0,T) and we prove the existence of infinitely many finite mass solutions for the equation in ℝ²×(0,T) when 0≤u ₀∉L ¹ (ℝ²) is radially symmetric and u ₀L _loc ¹(ℝ²).
