Tent spaces associated with semigroups of operators

We study tent spaces on general measure spaces (Ω,μ). We assume that there exists a semigroup of positive operators on Lp(Ω,μ) satisfying a monotone property but do not assume any geometric/metric structure on Ω. The semigroup plays the same role as integrals on cones and cubes in Euclidean spaces. We then study BMO spaces on general measure spaces and get an analogue of Fefferman's H¹-BMO duality theory. We also get a H¹-BMO duality inequality without assuming the monotone property. All the results are proved in a more general setting, namely for noncommutative Lp spaces.     

BMO spaces related to Laguerre semigroups

For the system of Laguerre functions we define a suitable BMO space from the atomic version of the Hardy space considered by Dziubański in 7 , where is the maximal operator of the heat semigroup associated to that Laguerre system. We prove boundedness of over a weighted version of that BMO, and we extend such result to other systems of Laguerre functions, namely and . To do that, we work with a more general family of weighted BMO‐like spaces that includes those associated to all of the above mentioned Laguerre systems. In this setting, we prove that the local versions of the Hardy‐Littlewood and the heat‐diffusion maximal operators turn to be bounded over such family of spaces for weights. This result plays a decisive role in proving the boundedness of Laguerre semigroup maximal operators.     

Duality of Hardy and BMO spaces associated with operators with heat kernel bounds

Let be the infinitesimal generator of an analytic semigroup on with suitable upper bounds on its heat kernels. Auscher, Duong, and McIntosh defined a Hardy space by means of an area integral function associated with the operator . By using a variant of the maximal function associated with the semigroup , a space of functions of BMO type was defined by Duong and Yan and it generalizes the classical BMO space. In this paper, we show that if has a bounded holomorphic functional calculus on , then the dual space of is where is the adjoint operator of . We then obtain a characterization of the space in terms of the Carleson measure. We also discuss the dimensions of the kernel spaces of BMO when is a second-order elliptic operator of divergence form and when is a Schrödinger operator, and study the inclusion between the classical BMO space and spaces associated with operators.

     

Hardy and BMO spaces associated to divergence form elliptic operators

Consider a second order divergence form elliptic operator L with complex bounded measurable coefficients. In general, operators based on L, such as the Riesz transform or square function, may lie beyond the scope of the Calderón–Zygmund theory. They need not be bounded in the classical Hardy, BMO and even some L ^p spaces. In this work we develop a theory of Hardy and BMO spaces associated to L, which includes, in particular, a molecular decomposition, maximal and square function characterizations, duality of Hardy and BMO spaces, and a John–Nirenberg inequality.

Integral operators on BMO and Campanato spaces

This paper establishes the mapping properties of integral operators on space of bounded mean oscillation and Campanato spaces. In particular, we have the Hardy’s inequality and the boundedness of the Hadamard fractional integrals on space of bounded mean oscillation and Campanato spaces.

The authors give a characterization of central bounded mean oscillation space CBMO₂(R^γ) in terms of the central Carleson measure. Using this character, the authors establish the CBMO₂(R^γ)-boundedness for several classes of general Littlewood-Paley operators. Supported by the NNSF of China.     

Duality of Hardy and BMO spaces associated with operators with heat kernel bounds on product domains

Let L be the infinitesimal generator of an analytic semigroup on L² (?) with suitable upper bounds on its heat kernels, and L has a bounded holomorphic functional calculus on L² (?). In this article, we introduce new function spaces H _L ¹ (? × ?) and BMO_L(? × ?) (dual to the space H _L* ¹ (? × ?) in which L* is the adjoint operator of L) associated with L, and they generalize the classical Hardy and BMO spaces on product domains. We obtain a molecular decomposition of function for H _L ¹ (? × ?) by using the theory of tent spaces and establish a characterization of BMO_L (? × ?) in terms of Carleson conditions. We also show that the John-Nirenberg inequality holds for the space BMO_L (? × ?). Applications include large classes of differential operators such as the magnetic Schrödinger operators and second-order elliptic operators of divergence form or nondivergence form in one dimension.     

Toeplitz operators with BMO and IMO symbols between Fock spaces

In this paper, given $$f \in BMO$$, for all possible $$0< p< q<\infty $$, we characterize the boundedness (or compactness) of the Toeplitz operators $$T_{f}$$ from the Fock space $$F^{p}$$ to $$F^{q}$$. With $$f\in IMO$$ (the space of integrable mean oscillation functions), for all possible $$0< q< p<\infty $$, we characterize those symbols f for which the Toeplitz operators $$T_{f}$$ are bounded (or compact) from $$F^{p}$$ to $$F^{q}$$.     

Orlicz-Hardy spaces associated with operators

Let L be a linear operator in L2(Rn) and generate an analytic semigroup {e-tL}t 0 with kernel satisfying an upper bound of Poisson type, whose decay is measured by θ(L) ∈ (0, ∞). Let ω on (0, ∞) be of upper type 1 and of critical lower type p0(ω) ∈ (n/(n + θ(L)), 1] and ρ(t) = t-1/ω-1(t-1) for t ∈ (0, ∞). We introduce the Orlicz-Hardy space Hω, L(Rn) and the BMO-type space BMOρ, L(Rn) and establish the John-Nirenberg inequality for BMOρ, L(Rn) functions and the duality relation between Hω, L(Rn) and BMOρ, L...     

BMO spaces associated to generalized parabolic sections

Parabolic sections were introduced by Huang[1] to study the parabolic MongeAmpère equation.In this note,we introduce the generalized parabolic sections P and define BMOPq spaces related to these sections.We then establish the John-Nirenberg type inequality and verify that all BMOqP are equivalent for q ≥ 1.     

Evolution semigroups and time operators on Banach spaces

We present new general methods to obtain shift representation of evolution semigroups defined on Banach spaces. We introduce the notion of time operator associated with a generalized shift on a Banach space and give some conditions under which time operators can be defined on an arbitrary Banach space. We also tackle the problem of scaling of time operators and obtain a general result about the existence of time operators on Banach spaces satisfying some geometric conditions. The last part of the paper contains some examples of explicit constructions of time operators on function spaces.     

Normal extensions of semigroups of operators to Krein spaces

In this paper, we prove that every strongly continuous semigroup of bounded operators on a Hilbert space may be extended to a strongly continous semigroup of normal operators on a larger Krein space. Several equivalent formulations for the case where the extension space is a Pontrjagin space are given.     

Analytic semigroups of pseudodifferential operators on vector-valued Sobolev spaces

In this paper we study continuity and invertibility of pseudodifferential operators with non-regular Banach space valued symbols. The corresponding pseudodifferential operators generate analytic semigroups on the Sobolev spaces W _p ^k (? ⁿ , E) with k ∈ ?₀, 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞. Here E is an arbitrary Banach space. We also apply the theory to solve non-autonomous parabolic pseudodifferential equations in Sobolev spaces.

Weighted local Hardy spaces associated with operators

Let L be a self-adjoint positive operator on \(L^2(\mathbb {R}^n)\). Assume that the semigroup \(e^{-tL}\) generated by \(-L\) satisfies the Gaussian kernel bounds on \(L^2(\mathbb {R}^n)\). In this article, we study weighted local Hardy space \(h_{L,w}^{1}(\mathbb {R}^n)\) associated with L in terms of the area function characterization, and prove their atomic characters. Then, we introduce the weighted local BMO space \(\mathrm{bmo}_{L,w}(\mathbb {R}^n)\) and prove that the dual of \(h_{L,w}^{1}(\mathbb {R}^n)\) is \(\mathrm{bmo}_{L,w}(\mathbb {R}^n)\). Finally a broad class of applications of these results is described.     

On exponential h-expansiveness of semigroups of operators in Banach spaces

This paper introduces the concept of exponential h-expansiveness for semigroups of nonlinear operators, which is an extension of classical concept of exponential expansiveness. Following the idea of obtaining an unitary treatment for stability and expansiveness, necessary and sufficient conditions for exponential h-expansiveness are given. As particular cases, the variants for exponential expansiveness of some well-known stability results due to Datko, Pazy, Ichikawa, Rolewicz and Neerven are obtained.     

On the theory of semigroups of operators on locally convex spaces

The behavior of strongly continuous one-parameter semigroups of operators on locally convex spaces is considered. The emphasis is placed on semigroups that grow too rapidly to be treated by classical Laplace transform methods.A space

of continuous E-valued functions is defined for a locally convex space E, and the generalized resolvent $\text{R}$ of an operator A on E is defined as an operator on

. It is noted that $\text{R}$ may exist when the classical resolvent (λ ? A)^?1 fails to exist. Conditions on $\text{R}$ are given that are necessary and sufficient to guarantee that A is the generator of a semigroup T(t). The action of $\text{R}$ is characterized by convolution against the semigroup, and the semigroup is computed as the limit of $\text{R}$ acting on an approximate identity.Conditions on an operator B are introduced that are sufficient to guarantee that A + B is the generator of a semigroup whenever A is. A formula is given for the perturbed semigroup.Two characterizations of semigroups that can be extended holomorphically into some sector of the complex plane are given. One is in terms of the growth of the derivative $\text{(}\text{d}\text{dt}\text{) T(t)}$ as t approaches 0, the other is in terms of the behavior of $\text{R}$ⁿ, the powers of the generalized resolvent.Throughout, the generalized resolvent plays a role analogous to the role of the classical resolvent in the work of Hille, Phillips, Yosida, Miyadera, and others.
