Powerful numbers in (1ℓ + qℓ)(2ℓ + qℓ)⋯(nℓ + qℓ)

Let q be a positive integer. Recently, Niu and Liu proved that, if $n\ge \max ?\{q,1198?q\}$, then the product $(1^3+q^3)(2^3+q^3)?(n^3+q^3)$ is not a powerful number. In this note, we prove (1) that, for any odd prime power ? and $n\ge \max ?\{q,11?q\}$, the product $(1^{?}+q^{?})(2^{?}+q^{?})?(n^{?}+q^{?})$ is not a powerful number, and (2) that, for any positive odd integer ?, there exists an integer $N_{q,?}$ such that, for any positive integer $n\ge N_{q,?}$, the product $(1^{?}+q^{?})(2^{?}+q^{?})?(n^{?}+q^{?})$ is not a powerful number.     

ON THE COMMUTATORS OF SINGULAR INTEGRAL OPERATORS

Lp(Rn) (1＜p＜∞) boundedness and a weak type endpoint estimate are considered for the commutators of singular integral operators. A condition on the associated kernel is given under which the L2(Rn) boundedness of the singular integral operators implies the Lp(Rn) boundedness (1＜p＜∞) and the weak type (H1(Rn), L1(Rn))boundedness for the corresponding commutators. A new interpolation theorem is also established.
