Lipschitz-type functions on metric spaces

In order to find metric spaces X for which the algebra Lip^∗(X) of bounded Lipschitz functions on X determines the Lipschitz structure of X, we introduce the class of small-determined spaces. We show that this class includes precompact and quasi-convex metric spaces. We obtain several metric characterizations of this property, as well as some other characterizations given in terms of the uniform approximation and the extension of uniformly continuous functions. In particular we show that X is small-determined if and only if every uniformly continuous real function on X can be uniformly approximated by Lipschitz functions.     

Estimates of maximal functions measuring local smoothness

Letη be a nondecreasing function on (0, 1] such thatη(t)/t decreases andη(+0)=0. Letf ∈L(I ⁿ ) (I≡[0,1]. Set $${\mathcal{N}}_\eta f(x) = \sup \frac{1}{{\left| Q \right|\eta (\left| Q \right|^{1/n} )}} \smallint _Q \left| {f(t) - f(x)} \right|dt,$$ , where the supremum is taken over all cubes containing the pointx. Forη=t ^α (0<α≤1) this definition was given by A.Calderón. In the paper we prove estimates of the maximal functions ${\mathcal{N}}_\eta f$ , along with some embedding theorems. In particular, we prove the following Sobolev type inequality: if $$1 \leqslant p< q< \infty , \theta \equiv n(1/p - 1/q)< 1, and \eta (t) \leqslant t^\theta \sigma (t),$$ , then $$\parallel {\mathcal{N}}_\sigma {f} {\parallel_{q,p}} \leqslant c \parallel {\mathcal{N}}_\eta {f} {\parallel_p} .$$ . Furthermore, we obtain estimates of ${\mathcal{N}}_\eta f$ in terms of theL ^p -modulus of continuity off. We find sharp conditions for ${\mathcal{N}}_\eta f$ to belong toL ^p (I ⁿ ) and the Orlicz class?(L), too.

Widths between the anisotropic spaces and the spaces of functions with mixed smoothness

The Kolmogorov, Gelfand, linear and orthoprojection widths of the classes of functions with mixed smoothness in the anisotropic spaces and those of the anisotropic classes in the spaces of functions with mixed smoothness are considered. The optimal asymptotic order of the widths are given.     

Sobolev spaces, Lebesgue points and maximal functions

In this note, we study boundedness of a large class of maximal operators in Sobolev spaces that includes the spherical maximal operator. We also study the size of the set of Lebesgue points with respect to convergence associated with such maximal operators.     

Boundedness and continuity of maximal singular integrals and maximal functions on Triebel-Lizorkin spaces

In this paper, we systematically study several classes of maximal singular integrals and maximal functions with rough kernels in F_β(S~(n-1)), a topic that relates to the Grafakos-Stefanov class. The boundedness and continuity of these operators on Triebel-Lizorkin spaces and Besov spaces are discussed.     

Iterated maximal functions in variable exponent Lebesgue spaces

In this paper we study the iterated Hardy?CLittlewood maximal operator in variable exponent Lebesgue spaces with exponent allowed to reach the value 1. We use modulars where the L ^p(·)-modular is perturbed by a logarithmic-type function, and the results hold also in the more general context of such Musielak?COrlicz spaces.     

Subdifferential representation of homogeneous functions and extension of smoothness in Banach spaces

In this paper, we mainly consider proximal subdifferentials of lower semicontinuous functions defined on real Hilbert space and Clarke＇s subdifferentials of locally Lipschitzian functions defined on Banach space respectively, and obtain the generalized Euler identity of homogenous functions. Then, by introducing a multifunction F, we extend the smoothness of sphere and differentiability of norm function in Banach space.

Construction of splines of maximal smoothness

We consider approximation relations as a system of linear algebraic equations and obtain spaces of minimal Lagrange type splines of arbitrary order. Using an analog of procedure for constructing elementary symmetric polynomials, we obtain new explicit formulas for representing splines. The splines obtained possess the maximal smoothness and minimal compact support. We also give examples of constructing splines on an open interval and on a segment. Bibliography: 15 titles.     

On spaces of functions between classifying spaces

In this paper the results of Dwyer and Zabrodsky [DZ] are extended by showing that ifL is a compact Lie group andG is either ap-group or a torus, then every mapf:BG →BL is homotopic to one induced by a homomorphismφ :G →L, and two such induced maps are homotopic if and only if the corresponding homomophisms are conjugate. Several other results related to maps between classifying spaces, completions, and fibrations are also deduced.     

Characterizations of Besov-type and Triebel-Lizorkin-type spaces via maximal functions and local means

Let s∈R. In this paper, the authors first establish the maximal function characterizations of the Besov-type space with and τ∈[0,∞), the Triebel-Lizorkin-type space with p∈(0,∞), q∈(0,∞] and τ∈[0,∞), the Besov-Hausdorff space with p∈(1,∞), q∈[1,∞) and and the Triebel-Lizorkin-Hausdorff space with and , where t^′ denotes the conjugate index of t∈[1,∞]. Using this characterization, the authors further obtain the local mean characterizations of these function spaces via functions satisfying the Tauberian condition and establish a Fourier multiplier theorem on these spaces. All these results generalize the existing classical results on Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces by taking τ=0 and are also new even for Q spaces and Hardy-Hausdorff spaces.
