The Estimates for Sharp Maximal Functions of Multilinear Strongly Singular Integral Operators

In this paper, the author obtains that the multilinear operators of strongly singular integral operators and their dual operators are bounded from some L^p（R^n） to L^p（R^n） when the m-th order derivatives of A belong to L^p（R^n） for r large enough. By this result, the author gets the estimates for the Sharp maximal functions of the multilinear operators with the m-th order derivatives of A being Lipschitz functions. It follows that the multilinear operators are （L^p, L^p）-type operators for 1 〈 p 〈 ∞.     

On Lp-Generalization of a Theorem of Adamyan, Arov, and Kreın

The paper deals with problems relating to the theory of Hankel operators. Let G be a bounded simple connected domain with the boundary Γ consisting of a closed analytic Jordan curve. Denote by _n,p(G), 1p<∞, the class of all meromorphic functions on G that can be represented in the form h=β/α, where β belongs to the Smirnov class E_p(G), α is a polynomial degree at most n, α0. We obtain estimates of s-numbers of the Hankel operator A_f constructed from fL_p(Γ), 1p<∞, in terms of the best approximation Δ_n,p of f in the space L_p(Γ) by functions belonging to the class _n,p(G).     

Vector measure Maurey–Rosenthal-type factorizations and -sums of -spaces

Consider a vector measure of bounded variation m with values in a Banach space and an operator T:XL¹(m), where L¹(m) is the space of integrable functions with respect to m. We characterize when T can be factorized through the space L²(m) by means of a multiplication operator given by a function of L²(|m|), where |m| is the variation of m, extending in this way the Maurey–Rosenthal Theorem. We use this result to obtain information about the structure of the space L¹(m) when m is a sequential vector measure. In this case the space L¹(m) is an ℓ-sum of L¹-spaces.

On the asymptotic behaviour of a semigroup of linear operators

Let T = {T(t)}_{t ≥ 0} be a C₀-semigroup on a Banach space X. In this paper, we study the relations between the abscissa ω_Lp(T) of weak p-integrability of T (1 ≤ p < ∞), the abscissa ω^p_R(A) of p-boundedness of the resolvent of the generator A of T (1 ≤ p ≤ ∞), and the growth bounds ω_β(T), β ≥ 0, of T. Our main results are as follows.

1. (i) Let T be a C₀-semigroup on a B-convex Banach space such that the resolvent of its generator is uniformly bounded in the right half plane. Then ω_{1 − ε}(T) < 0 for some ε > 0.

2. (ii) Let T be a C₀-semigroup on L^p such that the resolvent of the generator is uniformly bounded in the right half plane. Then ω_β(T) < 0 for all β>¦1/p − 1/p′¦, 1/p + 1/p′ = 1.

3. (iii) Let 1 ≤ p ≤ 2 and let T be a weakly L^p-stable C₀-semigroup on a Banach space X. Then for all β>1/p we have ω_β(T) ≤ 0.

Further, we give sufficient conditions in terms of ω^q_R(A) for the existence of L^p-solutions and W^1,p-solutions (1 ≤ p ≤ ∞) of the abstract Cauchy problem for a general class of operators A on X.     

On Representations Associated with Completely n-Positive Linear Maps on Pro-C^＊-Algebras

It is shown that an n × n matrix of continuous linear maps from a pro-C^＊-algebra A to L（H）, which verifies the condition of complete positivity, is of the form [V^＊TijФ（·）V]^n i,where Ф is a representation of A on a Hilbert space K, V is a bounded linear operator from H to K, and j=1,[Tij]^n i,j=1 is a positive element in the C^＊-algebra of all n×n matrices over the commutant of Ф（A） in L（K）. This generalizes a result of C. Y.Suen in Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 112（3）, 1991, 709-712. Also, a covariant version of this construction is given.     

Square functions and <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript>∞</Superscript> calculus on subspaces of <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> and on Hardy spaces

Let X be a (closed) subspace of L^p with 1≤p<∞, and let A be any sectorial operator on X. We consider associated square functions on X, of the form and we show that if A admits a bounded H^∞ functional calculus on X, then these square functions are equivalent to the original norm of X. Then we deduce a similar result when X=H¹(ℝ^N) is the usual Hardy space, for an appropriate choice of || ||_F. For example if N=1, the right choice is the sum for h ∈ H¹(ℝ), where H denotes the Hilbert transform.     

An algebra containing the two-sided convolution operators

We present an intrinsically defined algebra of operators containing the right and left invariant Calderón–Zygmund operators on a stratified group. The operators in our algebra are pseudolocal and bounded on L^p (1<p<∞). This algebra provides an example of an algebra of singular integrals that falls outside of the classical Calderón–Zygmund theory.     

A note on the sunouchi operator with respect to the walsh—kaczmarz system

An analogue of the so—called Sunouchi operator with respect to the Walsh—Kaczmarz system will be investigated. We show the boundedness of this operator if we take it as a map from the dyadic Hardy space H ^p to L ^p for all 0<p≤1.. For the proof we consider a multiplier operator and prove its (H ^p H ^p)—boundedness for 0<p≤1. Since the multiplier is obviously bounded from L ² to L ², a theorem on interpolation of operators can be applied to show that our multiplier is of weak type (1,1) and of type (q q) for all 1<q<∞. The same statements follow also for the Sunouchi operator.     

Sub-Laplacians of Holomorphic L-type on Rank One AN-Groups and Related Solvable Groups

Consider a right-invariant sub-Laplacian L on an exponential solvable Lie group G, endowed with a left-invariant Haar measure. Depending on the structure of G and possibly also that of L, L may admit differentiable L^p-functional calculi, or may be of holomorphic L^p-type for a given p≠2, as recent studies of specific classes of groups G and sub-Laplacians L have revealed. By “holomorphic L^p-type” we mean that every L^p-spectral multiplier for L is necessarily holomorphic in a complex neighborhood of some point in the L²-spectrum of L. This can only arise if the group algebra L¹(G) is non-symmetric. In this article we prove that, for large classes of exponential groups, including all rank one AN-groups, a certain Lie algebraic condition, which characterizes the non-symmetry of L¹(G) [37], also suffices for L to be of holomorphic L¹-type. Moreover, if this condition, which was first introduced by J. Boidol [6] in a different context, holds for generic points in the dual * of the Lie algebra of G, then L is of holomorphic L^p-type for every p≠2. Besides the non-symmetry of L¹(G), also the closedness of coadjoint orbits plays a crucial role. We also discuss an example of a higher rank AN-group. This example and our results in the rank one case suggest that sub-Laplacians on exponential Lie groups may be of holomorphic L¹-type if and only if there exists a closed coadjoint orbit Ω * such that the points of Ω satisfy Boidol's condition. In the course of the proof of our main results, whose principal strategy is similar as in [8], we develop various tools which may be of independent interest and largely apply to more general Lie groups. Some of them are certainly known as “folklore” results. For instance, we study subelliptic estimates on representation spaces, the relation between spectral multipliers and unitary representations, and develop some “holomorphic” and “continuous” perturbation theory for images of sub-Laplacians under “smoothly varying” families of irreducible unitary representations.     

A class of singular integrals on then-complex unit sphere

The operaton on the n-complex unit sphere under study have three forms: the singular integrals with holomorphic kernels, the bounded and holomorphic Fourier multipliers, and the Cauchy-Dunford bounded and holomorphic functional calculus of the radial Dirac operator $D = \sum\nolimits_{k = 1}^n {z_k \frac{\partial }{{\partial _{z_k } }}} $ . The equivalence between the three fom and the strong-type (p,p), 1 <p < ∞, and weak-type (1,1)-boundedness of the operators is proved. The results generalise the work of L. K. Hua, A. Korányli and S. Vagi, W. Rudin and S. Gong on the Cauchy-Szegö, kemel and the Cauchy singular integral operator.     

Inverse Operators, q-Fractional Integrals, and q-Bernoulli Polynomials

We introduce operators of q-fractional integration through inverses of the Askey–Wilson operator and use them to introduce a q-fractional calculus. We establish the semigroup property for fractional integrals and fractional derivatives. We study properties of the kernel of q-fractional integral and show how they give rise to a q-analogue of Bernoulli polynomials, which are now polynomials of two variables, x and y. As q→1 the polynomials become polynomials in x−y, a convolution kernel in one variable. We also evaluate explicitly a related kernel of a right inverse of the Askey–Wilson operator on an L² space weighted by the weight function of the Askey–Wilson polynomials.     

Conical square function estimates in UMD Banach spaces and applications to H ∞-functional calculi

We study conical square function estimates for Banach-valued functions and introduce a vector-valued analogue of the Coifman-Meyer-Stein tent spaces. Following recent work of Auscher-M^cIntosh-Russ, the tent spaces in turn are used to construct a scale of vector-valued Hardy spaces associated with a given bisectorial operator A with certain off-diagonal bounds such that A always has a bounded H ^∞-functional calculus on these spaces. This provides a new way of proving functional calculus of A on the Bochner spaces L ^p (ℝ ⁿ ; X) by checking appropriate conical square function estimates and also a conical analogue ofBourgain’s extension of the Littlewood-Paley theory to the UMD-valued context. Even when X = ℂ, our approach gives refined p-dependent versions of known results.     

Feedback operator for a pseudoparabolic optimal control problem

The feedback operator of a linear pseudoparabolic problem with quadratic criterion is obtained by decoupling of the optimality condition. The feedback operator is shown to be related to the solution of a Riccati equation formulated in theB*-algebra of bounded linear operators onL ²(). This approach shows that the linear feedback operator may be considered as a bounded operator fromL ²() intoH ₀ ¹ (). Finally, we give a theorem establishing the convergence behavior for the feedback operators for these problems as they formally approach an analogous problem of parabolic type.This work was supported in part by the National Science Foundation, Grant No. MCS-7902037.     

Some complete metrics on spaces of fuzzy subsets

The classes of the L_p,∞- and L_p-metrics play an important role to develop a probability theory in fuzzy sample spaces. All of these metrics are known to be separable, but not complete. The classes are closely related as for each L_p,∞-metric there exists some L_p-metric which induces the same topology. This paper deals with the completion of the L_p,∞- and L_p-metrics. We can also show that the relationship between the classes of L_p,∞- and L_p-metrics still holds for the obtained respective classes of their completions.     

Walsh-Type Wavelet Packet Expansions

We consider a family of basic nonstationary wavelet packets generated using the Haar filters except for a finite number of scales where we allow the use of arbitrary filters. Such a system, which we call a system of Walsh-type wavelet packets, can be considered as a smooth generalization of the Walsh functions. We show that the basic Walsh-type wavelet packets share a number of metric properties with the Walsh system. We prove that the system constitutes a Schauder basis for L^p( ), 1<p<∞, and we construct an explicit function in L¹( ) for which the expansion fails. Then we prove that expansions of L^p( )-functions, 1<p<∞, in the Walsh-type wavelet packets converge pointwise a.e. Finally, we prove that the analogous results are true for periodic Walsh-type wavelet packets in L^p[0,1).     

Kato's square root problem in Banach spaces

Let L be an elliptic differential operator with bounded measurable coefficients, acting in Bochner spaces Lp(Rn;X) of X -valued functions on Rn. We characterize Kato's square root estimates and the H^∞-functional calculus of L in terms of R-boundedness properties of the resolvent of L, when X is a Banach function lattice with the UMD property, or a noncommutative Lp space. To do so, we develop various vector-valued analogues of classical objects in Harmonic Analysis, including a maximal function for Bochner spaces. In the special case X=C, we get a new approach to the Lp theory of square roots of elliptic operators, as well as an Lp version of Carleson's inequality.     

Some Maximal Operators Related to Families of Singular Integral Operators

In this paper, we shall study L^p-boundedness of two kinds of maximal operators related to some families of singular integrals.     

Factorization of homomorphisms through H(D)

Weakly compact homomorphisms between (URM) algebras with connected maximal ideal space are shown to factor through H^∞(D) by means of composition operators and to be strongly nuclear. The spectrum of such homomorphisms is also described. Strongly nuclear composition operators between algebras of bounded analytic functions are characterized. The path connected components of the space of endomorphisms on H^∞(D) in the uniform operator topology are determined.     

Hardy spaces estimates for a class of multilinear homogeneous operators

It is proved that a class of multilinear singular integral operators with homogeneous kernels are bounded operators from the product spaces to the Hardy spacesH ^r , (ℝ ⁿ ) and the weak Hardy spaceH ^r,∞ (ℝ ⁿ . As an application of this result, the L ^p ,(ℝ ⁿ ) boundedness of a class of commutator for the singular integral with homogeneous kernels is obtained.
