Best approximation in L(μ, X), II

The object of this paper is to prove the following theorem: If Y is a closed subspace of the Banach space X, then L¹(μ, Y) is proximinal in L¹(μ, X) if and only if L^p(μ, Y) is proximinal in L^p(μ, Y) for every p, 1 < p < ∞. As an application of this result we prove that if Y is either reflexive or Y is a separable proximinal dual space, then L¹(μ, Y) is proximinal in L¹(μ, X).     

Singular integrals associated to the Laplacian on the affine groupax+b

We consider singular integral operators of the form (a)Z ₁L⁻¹Z₂, (b)Z ₁Z₂L⁻¹, and (c)L ⁻¹Z₁Z₂, whereZ ₁ andZ ₂ are nonzero right-invariant vector fields, andL is theL ²-closure of a canonical Laplacian. The operators (a) are shown to be bounded onL ^p for allp∈(1, ∞) and of weak type (1, 1), whereas all of the operators in (b) and (c) are not of weak type (p, p) for anyp∈[1, ∞).

Lp-Lq estimates for a class of pseudo-differential equations and their applications

This paper is concerned with the L ^p -L ^q estimates of the solutions for a class of pseudodifferential equations under some suitable degenerate assumptions. As applications, these estimates can be used to show that a generalized Schr?dinger operator with some integrable potential generates a fractionally integrated group in L ^p (ℝ ⁿ ).

L 1→ L q Poincaré Inequalities for 0 < q < 1 Imply Representation Formulas

Given two doubling measures μ and ν in a metric space (S, ρ) of homogeneous type, let B ₀⊂S be a given ball. It has been a well-known result by now (see [1–4]) that the validity of an L ¹→L ¹ Poincaré inequality of the following form: for all metric balls B⊂B ₀⊂S, implies a variant of representation formula of fractional integral type: for ρ-a.e. x∈B ₀, One of the main results of this paper shows that an L ¹ to L ^q Poincaré inequality for some 0 < q < 1, i.e., for all metric balls B⊂B ₀, will suffice to imply the above representation formula. As an immediate corollary, we can show that the weak-type condition, also implies the same formula. Analogous theorems related to high-order Poincaré inequalities and Sobolev spaces in metric spaces are also proved. Received December 27, 2000, Accepted May 28, 2001     

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.     

Some remarks on the Schr?dinger equation with a potential in LrtLsx

We study the dispersive properties of the linear Schr?dinger equation with a time-dependent potential V(t,x). We show that an appropriate integrability condition in space and time on V, i.e. the boundedness of a suitable L^r_tL^s_x norm, is sufficient to prove the full set of Strichartz estimates. We also construct several counterexamples which show that our assumptions are optimal, both for local and for global Strichartz estimates, in the class of large unsigned potentials V ∈L^r_tL^s_x.

L p - L q estimates of solutions to the damped wave equation in 3-dimensional space and their application

 It has been asserted that the damped wave equation has the diffusive structure as t→∞. In this paper we consider the Cauchy problem in 3-dimensional space for the linear damped wave equation and the corresponding parabolic equation, and obtain the L ^p −L ^q estimates of the difference of each solution, which represent the assertion precisely. Explicit formulas of the solutions are analyzed for the proof. The second aim is to apply the L ^p −L ^q estimates to the semilinear damped wave equation with power nonlinearity. If the power is larger than the Fujita exponent, then the time global existence of small weak solution is proved and its optimal decay order is obtained.

The Dichotomy Problem for Orbital Measures of SU(n)

For many orbital measures μ, on SU(n), we show that either μ^k ∈ L² or μ^k is singular to L¹. The least k for which μ^k ∈ L² is determined and is shown to be the minimum k for which the k-fold product of the conjugacy class supporting the measure has positive measure. It would be interesting to know if all orbital measures satisfy this dichotomy.     

Unconditional basis recursively generated in L p on compact sets

We construct an unconditional basis in the Banach space L ^p(Ω) for p 1 by using the refinement equation and the basic operation of translation and scale, where Ω is a compact subset in ℝⁿ. We also give an algorithm of how to construct an unconditional basis in L ^p(Ω p). At the end of this paper, we give the characterization of the functions in L ^p(Ω p) by using the wavelet coefficients.     

Average Width and Optimal Interpolation of the Sobolev-Wiener Class Wpq(R) in the Metric Lq(R)

In this paper, we determine the exact value of average n − K width _n(W^r_pq(R), L_q(R)) of Sobolev-Wiener class W^r_pq(R) in the metric L_q(R) for 1 > q ≥ p > ∞ and get the value of _n(W^r_p(R), L_qp(R)) for the dual case. We also solve the optimal interpolation problems of W^r_pq(R) in the metric L_q(R) and W^r_p(R) in the metric L_qp(R) for 1 < q ≤ p < ∞.     

The Stokes operator in weighted Lq-spaces II: weighted resolvent estimates and maximal Lp-regularity

In this paper we establish a general weighted L ^q -theory of the Stokes operator in the whole space, the half space and a bounded domain for general Muckenhoupt weights . We show weighted L ^q -estimates for the Stokes resolvent system in bounded domains for general Muckenhoupt weights. These weighted resolvent estimates imply not only that the Stokes operator generates a bounded analytic semigroup but even yield the maximal L ^p -regularity of in the respective weighted L ^q -spaces for arbitrary Muckenhoupt weights . This conclusion is archived by combining a recent characterisation of maximal L ^p -regularity by -bounded families due to Weis [Operator-valued Fourier multiplier theorems and maximal L _p -regularity. Preprint (1999)] with the fact that for L ^q -spaces -boundedness is implied by weighted estimates.     

Empirical multifractal moment measures of self-similar measure for q < 0*

For q ≥ 0, Olsen [1] has attained the exact rate of convergence of the L ^q -spectrum of a self-similar measure and showed that the so-called empirical multifractal moment measures converges weakly to the normalized multifractal measures. Unfortunately, nothing is known for q < 0. Indeed, the problem of analysing the L ^q - spectrum for q < 0 is generally considered significantly more difficult since the L ^q -spectrum is extremely sensitive to small variations of μ for q < 0. In [2] we showed that self-similar measures satisfying the Open Set Condition (OSC) are Ahlfors regular and, using this fact, we obtained the exact rate of convergence of the L ^q -spectrum of a self-similar measure satisfying the OSC for q < 0. In this paper, we apply the results from [2] to show the empirical multifractal q’th moment measures of self-similar measures satisfying the OSC converges weakly to the normalized multifractal Hausdorff measures for q < 0.     

The Fine Structure of the n-Widths of H-Spaces in Lq(−1, 1)

The n-widths of the unit ball A_p of the Hardy space H^p in L_q( −1, 1) are determined asymptotically. It is shown that for 1 ≤ q < p ≤∞ there exist constants k₁ and k₂ such that [formula]≤ d_n(A_p, L_q(−1, 1)),dⁿ(A_p, L_q(−1, 1)), δ_n(A_p, L_q(−1, 1))[formula]where d_n, dⁿ, and δ_n denote the Kolmogorov, Gel′fand and linear n-widths, respectively. This result is an improvement of estimates previously obtained by Burchard and Höllig and by the author.     

Best polynomial and durrmeyer approximation in Lp(S)

On a simplex SR^d, the best polynomial approximation is E_n()_Lp(S)=Inf{P_n−_Lp(S): P_n of total degree n}. The Durrmeyer modification, M_n, of the Bernstein operator is a bounded operator on L_p(S) and has many “nice” properties, most notably commutativity and self-adjointness. In this paper, relations between M_n−z.dfnc;_Lp(S) and E_[√n]()_Lp(S) will be given by weak inequalities will imply, for 0<α<1 and 1≤p≤∞, E_n()_Lp(S)=O(n^-2α)M_n−z.dfnc;_Lp(S)=O(n^-α). We also see how the fact that P(D)εL_p(S) for the appropriate P(D) affects directional smoothness.     

Local geometry of L 1 ν L ∞ and L 1+L ∞

Extreme points of the unit sphere S (L ¹+L ^∞ ) of LL ¹+L ^∞ under the classical norm used in the interpolation theory were characterized in [8] and [11], while extreme points of S(L ¹ ∩ L ^∞) under the classical norm were characterized in [7]. In this paper extreme points of the unit sphere of L ¹+L ^∞ and L ¹ ∩ L ^∞ under the “dual” norms are characterized. Moreover, all the extreme points in L ¹ ∩ L ^∞ and L ¹+L ^∞ (under both kinds of norms) are examined if they are exposed, H-points, or strongly exposed. Smooth points in both these spaces for both the norms are also characterized. Finally, it is proved that in general the spaces L ^p +L ^q and L ^p ∩ L ^q are not isometric to Orlicz spaces, provided that 1<p<q<+∞.
