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.     

Differentiation in the branges spaces and embedding theorems

The boundedness conditions for the differentiation operator in Hilbert spaces of entire functions (Branges spaces) and conditions under which the embedding K_и⊂L₂(μ) holds in spaces K_и associated with the Branges spacesH(E) are studied. Measure μ such that the above embedding is isometric are of special interest. It turns out that the condition E'/E∈H^∞(C⁺) is sufficient for the boundedness of the differentiation operator inH(E). Under certain restrictions on E, this condition is also necessary. However, this fact fails in the general case, which is demonstrated by the counterexamples constructed in this paper. The convex structure of the set of measures μ such that the embedding K_E ^* _/E⊂L²(μ) is isometric (the set of such measures was described by de Brages) is considered. Some classes of measures that are extreme points in the set of Branges measures are distinguished. Examples of measures that are not extreme points are also given. Bibliography: 7 titles.

Structure of spaces ofC ∞-functions on nuclear spaces

LetE be a real nuclear locally convex space; we prove that the space ℰ_ub(E), of allC ^∞-functions of uniform bounded type onE, coincides with the inductive limit of the spaces ℰ_Nbc(E _v) (introduced by Nachbin-Dineen), whenV ranges over a basis of convex balanced 0-neighbourhoods inE. LetE be a real nuclear bornological vector space; we prove that the space ℰ(E) of allC ^∞-functions onE coincides with the projective limit of the spaces ℰ_Nbc(E _B), whenB is a closed convex balanced bounded subset ofE. As a consequence we obtain some density results and a version of the Paley-Wiener-Schwartz theorem.

Commutators of integral operators with variable kernels on Hardy spaces

LetT _Ω,α (0 ≤ α< n) be the singular and fractional integrals with variable kernel Ω(x, z), and [b, T_Ω,α] be the commutator generated by T_Ω,α and a Lipschitz functionb. In this paper, the authors study the boundedness of [b, T_Ω,α] on the Hardy spaces, under some assumptions such as theL ^r -Dini condition. Similar results and the weak type estimates at the end-point cases are also given for the homogeneous convolution operators . The smoothness conditions imposed on are weaker than the corresponding known results.     

Estimates for parametric Marcinkiewicz integrals in BMO and Campanato spaces

In this paper, the authors consider the behaviors of a class of parametric Marcinkiewicz integrals μ _Ω ^ρ , μ _Ω,λ ^*,ρ and μ _Ω,S ^ρ on BMO(ℝ ⁿ ) and Campanato spaces with complex parameter ρ and the kernel Ω in Llog⁺ L(S ⁿ⁻¹). Here μ _Ω,λ ^*,ρ and μ _Ω,S ^ρ are parametric Marcinkiewicz functions corresponding to the Littlewood-Paley g _λ *-function and the Lusin area function S, respectively. Under certain weak regularity condition on Ω, the authors prove that if f belongs to BMO(ℝ ⁿ ) or to a certain Campanato space, then [μ _Ω,λ ^*,ρ (f)]², [μ _Ω,S ^ρ (f)]² and [μ _Ω ^ρ (f)]² are either infinite everywhere or finite almost everywhere, and in the latter case, some kind of boundedness are also established.     

On the convex approximation property and the asymptotic behavior of nonlinear contractions in Banach spaces

We prove that ifC is a bounded closed convex subset of a uniformly convex Banach space,T:C→C is a nonlinear contraction, andS _n =(I+T+…+T ⁿ⁻¹ )/n, then lim _n ‖S _n (x)−TS _n (x)‖=0 uniformly inx inC. T also satisfies an inequality analogous to Zarantonello’s Hilbert space inequality. which permits the study of the structure of the weak ω-limit set of an orbit. These results are valid forB-convex spaces if some additional condition is imposed on the mapping. Partially supported by NSF Grant MCS-7802305A01.     

Pointwise multipliers of Orlicz spaces

We show that the result on multipliers of Orlicz spaces holds in general. Namely, under the assumption that three Young functions Φ₁, Φ₂ and Φ, generating corresponding Orlicz spaces, satisfy the estimate ${\Phi^{-1}(u) \leq C \Phi_1^{-1}(u)\, \Phi_2^{-1}(u)}We show that the result on multipliers of Orlicz spaces holds in general. Namely, under the assumption that three Young functions Φ₁, Φ₂ and Φ, generating corresponding Orlicz spaces, satisfy the estimate F^-1(u) ￡ C F₁^-1(u) F₂^-1(u){\Phi^{-1}(u) \leq C \Phi_1^{-1}(u)\, \Phi_2^{-1}(u)} for all u > 0, we prove that if the pointwise product xy belongs to L ^Φ(μ) for all y ? L^F₁(m){y \in L^{\Phi_1}(\mu)}, then x ? L^F₂(m){x \in L^{\Phi_2}(\mu)}. The result with some restrictions either on Young functions or on the measure μ was proved by Maligranda and Persson (Indag. Math. 51 (1989), 323–338). Our result holds for any collection of three Young functions satisfying the above estimate and for an arbitrary complete σ-finite measure μ.     

Vector-valued weak martingale Hardy spaces and atomic decompositions

Some atomic decomposition theorems are proved in vector-valued weak martingale Hardy spaces w _p Σ_α(X), w _p Q _α(X) and wD _α(X). As applications of atomic decompositions, a sufficient condition for sublinear operators defined on some vector-valued weak martingale Hardy spaces to be bounded is given. In particular, some weak versions of martingale inequalities for the operators f*, S ^(p)(f) and σ^(p)(f) are obtained.

Onp-absolutely summing constants of banach spaces

Given 1≦p<∞ and a real Banach spaceX, we define thep-absolutely summing constantμ _p(X) as inf{Σ _i ^=1/m |x*(x _i)|^p p Σ _i ^=1/m ‖x _i‖^p p]¹ p}, where the supremum ranges over {x*∈X*; ‖x*‖≤1} and the infimum is taken over all sets {x ₁,x ₂, …,x _m} ⊂X such that Σ _i ^=1/m ‖x _i‖>0. It follows immediately from [2] thatμ _p(X)>0 if and only ifX is finite dimensional. In this paper we find the exact values ofμ _p(X) for various spaces, and obtain some asymptotic estimates ofμ _p(X) for general finite dimensional Banach spaces. This is a part of the author’s Ph.D. Thesis prepared at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, under the supervision of Prof. A. Dvoretzky and Prof. J. Lindenstrauss.     

Vanishing theorem for irreducible symmetric spaces of noncompact type

We prove the following vanishing theorem. Let M be an irreducible symmetric space of noncompact type whose dimension exceeds 2 and M ≠SO0（2, 2）/SO（2） × SO（2）. Let π ： E →＊ M be any vector bundle. Then any E-valued L2 harmonic 1-form over M vanishes. In particular we get the vanishing theorem for harmonic maps from irreducible symmetric spaces of noncompact type.     

Multipliers on Dirichlet Type Spaces

In this paper, we characterize the pointwise multiplier space M (D _τ, D _μ) of Dirichlet type spaces in the unit ball of C ⁿ for the values of τ, μ in three cases: (i) τ < 0,μ < 0, (ii) τ < μ, (iii) τ≥μ, τ > n, and construct two functions to show that M(D _τ) ⊂D _τ properly if τ≤n and M(D _τ) ⊂M(D _μ) properly if τ > μ and τ > n− 1.

Averaging operators on normed köthe spaces

Summary Under study is the existence of averaging operators determined by measurable maps φ from a measure space (S, Σ, μ) into an arbitrary Hausdorff topological space T. The map φ induces a continuous map φ^e from the space C_b(T) into the normed (Banach) function space L_ϱ = L_ϱ(S, Σ, μ) defined by φ^e(f)=foφ for all f ε C_b(T). An integral representation for such operators is first studied. The existence is then determined by the existence of an averaging operator U₁ for the restriction of φ to a certain measurable subset B₁ of S. Utilizing a representation of L_ϱ(S, Σ, μ) as a Banach function space over a compact extremally disconnected Hausdorff space Ŝ, we are able to give a definition for the concept of plural points and irreducible map. A significant upper bound is given for the operator U₁. Finally conditions are considered under which no bounded projection from L_ϱ onto the range of φ^e may exist. From a topological point of view the development is pursued in a general setting. Averaging operators have recently been used for the study of injective Banach spaces of the type C_b(T) and in non-linear prediction and approximation theory relative to Tshebyshev subspaces of L_ϱ.

An extension theorem for separable Banach spaces

We construct a totally disconnected ω^*, norming subsetF of the unit ballB ^* of an arbitrary separable Banach space,X, and an operator fromC(F) toC(B^*) that “amost” commutes with the natural embeddings ofX. This is used to give a new proof of Milutin's theorem and to prove some new results on complemented subspaces ofC[0, 1] with separable dual. In particular we show that a complemented subspace ofC(ω^ω), is either isomorphic toC(ω^ω) or toc _u.     

Uniqueness of <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Subscript>0</Subscript>-semigroups on a general locally convex vector space and an application

The main purpose is to generalize a theorem of Arendt about uniqueness of C ₀-semigroups from Banach space setting to general locally convex vector spaces. More precisely, we show that cores are the only domains of uniqueness for C ₀-semigroups on locally convex spaces. As an application, we find a necessary and sufficient condition for that the mass transport equation has one unique L ¹(ℝ ^d ,dx) weak solution.     

Adjoints of semigroups acting on vector-valued function spaces

LetT(t) be the translation group onY=C ₀(ℝ×K)=C ₀(ℝ)⊗C(K),K compact Hausdorff, defined byT(t)f(x, y)=f(x+t, y). In this paper we give several representations of the sun-dialY ^⊙ corresponding to this group. Motivated by the solution of this problem, viz.Y ^⊙=L ¹(ℝ)⊗M(K), we develop a duality theorem for semigroups of the formT ₀(t)⊗id on tensor productsZ⊗X of Banach spaces, whereT ₀(t) is a semigroup onZ. Under appropriate compactness assumptions, depending on the kind of tensor product taken, we show that the sun-dial ofZ⊗X is given byZ ^⊙⊗X*. These results are applied to determine the sun-dials for semigroups induced on spaces of vector-valued functions, e.g.C ₀(Ω;X) andL ^p (μ;X).

Boundedness of parabolic singular integrals and Marcinkiewicz integrals on Triebel-Lizorkin spaces

In this paper,we obtain the boundedness of the parabolic singular integral operator T with kernel in L(logL)1/γ(Sn-1) on Triebel-Lizorkin spaces.Moreover,we prove the boundedness of a class of Marcinkiewicz integrals μΩ,q(f) from ∥f∥ F˙p0,q(Rn) into Lp(Rn).     

Convergence of Sobolev spaces on varying manifolds

We deal with variational problems on varying manifolds in ℝⁿ. We represent each manifold by a positive measure μ, to which we associate a suitable notion of tangent space Tμ, of mean curvature H(μ), and of Sobolev spaces with respect to μ on an open subset Ω ⊆ ℝⁿ. We introduce the notions of weak and strong convergence for functions defined on varying manifolds, that is defined μ_h -a.e., being {μ_h} a weakly convergent sequence of measures. In this setting, we prove a strong-weak type compactness theorem for the pairs (P_{μ h} H(μ_h)), where P_{μ h} are the projectors onto the tangent spaces T_{μ h}. When μ_h belong to a suitable class of k-dimensional measures, having in particular a prescribed (k−1)-manifold as a boundary, we enforce this result to study the convergence of energy functionals, possibly with a Dirichlet condition on ∂Ω. We also address a perspective for optimization problems where the control variable is represented by a manifold with a prescribed boundary.     

Weak Morrey spaces and strong solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations

We consider the Cauchy problem of Navier-Stokes equations in weak Morrey spaces. We first define a class of weak Morrey type spaces Mp*,λ(Rn) on the basis of Lorentz space Lp,∞ = Lp*(Rn)(in particular, Mp*,0(Rn) = Lp,∞, if p ＞ 1), and study some fundamental properties of them; Second,bounded linear operators on weak Morrey spaces, and establish the bilinear estimate in weak Morrey spaces. Finally, by means of Kato's method and the contraction mapping principle, we prove that the Cauchy problem of Navier-Stokes equations in weak Morrey spaces Mp*,λ(Rn) (1＜p≤n) is time-global well-posed, provided that the initial data are sufficiently small. Moreover, we also obtain the existence and uniqueness of the self-similar solution for Navier-Stokes equations in these spaces, because the weak Morrey space Mp*,n-p(Rn) can admit the singular initial data with a self-similar structure. Hence this paper generalizes Kato's results.     

On the duals of Lp spaces with 0<p<1

Given a measure space < Ω,m,μ >, a locally bounded, Hausdorff topological linear space < X, τ > and a real number 0<p<1, one can define the space L_p(Ω,m,μ,X), which is, under certain assumptions, a Fréchet space if endowed with a suitable topology. M.M. Day [1] has given a necessary and sufficient condition, in terms of the properties of the measure space < Ω,m,μ >, for the dual of L_p(Ω,m,μ,C) to be trivial. In this paper a different proof along with a slight generalization is given for this result, using standard and elementary measure theoretic arguments.
