Equivalence of <Emphasis Type="Italic">K</Emphasis>-functionals and modulus of smoothness constructed by generalized Dunkl translations

In a Hilbert space L _2,α := L ₂(?, |x|^2α+1 dx), α > ? 1/2, we study the generalized Dunkl translations constructed by the Dunkl differential-difference operator. Using the generalized Dunkl translations, we define generalized modulus of smoothness in the space L _2,α . Based on the Dunkl operator we define Sobolev-type spaces and K-functionals. The main result of the paper is the proof of the equivalence theorem for a K-functional and a modulus of smoothness.     

Multiplier operators and extremal functions related to the dual dunkl-sonine operator

We study the dual Dunkl-Sonine operator ^tS_k,? on ?^d, and give expression of ^tS_k,?, using Dunkl multiplier operators on ?^d. Next, we study the extremal functions f^*_λ, λ >0 related to the Dunkl multiplier operators, and more precisely show that {f^*_λ} λ >0 converges uniformly to ^tS_k,?(f) as λ → 0+. Certain examples based on Dunkl-heat and Dunkl-Poisson kernels are provided to illustrate the results.     

Dunkl Operators for Complex Reflection Groups

Dunkl operators for complex reflection groups are defined inthis paper. These commuting operators give rise to a parameterizedfamily of deformations of the polynomial De Rham complex. Thisleads to the study of the polynomial ring as a module over the‘rational Cherednik algebra’, and a natural contravariantform on this module. In the case of the imprimitive complexreflection groups G(m, p, N), the set of singular parametersin the parameterized family of these structures is describedexplicitly, using the theory of non-symmetric Jack polynomials.2000 Mathematical Subject Classification: 20F55 (primary), 52C35,05E05, 33C08 (secondary).     

Generalized Fock spaces and Weyl relations for the Dunkl kernel on the real line

In this paper we study a class of generalized Fock spaces associated with the Dunkl operator. Next we introduce the commutator relations between the Dunkl operator and multiplication operator which leads to a generalized class of Weyl relations for the Dunkl kernel.     

Relating transplantation and multipliers for Dunkl and Hankel transforms

By expressing the Dunkl transform of order α of a function f in terms of the Hankel transforms of orders α and α + 1 of even and odd parts of f, respectively, we show that a considerable part of harmonic analysis of the Dunkl transform on the real line may be reduced to known results for the Hankel transform. In particular, defining the modified Dunkl transform and then considering the Dunkl transplantation operator we transfer known multiplier results for the Hankel transform to the Dunkl transform setting.

Dimension-free square function estimates for Dunkl operators

Dunkl operators may be regarded as differential-difference operators parameterized by finite reflection groups and multiplicity functions. In this paper, the Littlewood–Paley square function for Dunkl heat flows in ${\mathbb{R}}^d$ is introduced by employing the full “gradient” induced by the corresponding carré du champ operator and then the $L^p$ boundedness is studied for all $p\in (1,\infty )$. For $p\in (1,2]$, we successfully adapt Stein's heat flows approach to overcome the difficulty caused by the difference part of the Dunkl operator and establish the $L^p$ boundedness, while for $p\in [2,\infty )$, we restrict to a particular case when the corresponding Weyl group is isomorphic to ${\mathbb{Z}}_2^d$ and apply a probabilistic method to prove the $L^p$ boundedness. In the latter case, the curvature-dimension inequality for Dunkl operators in the sense of Bakry–Emery, which may be of independent interest, plays a crucial role. The results are dimension-free.     

On the norm of the Lp-Dunkl transform

In this work, we establish a Babenko–Beckner-type inequality for the Dunkl transform of a radial function and Dunkl transform associated to a finite reflection group generated by the sign changes. As applications, we establish a new version of Young’s-type inequality and uncertainty relation for Renyi entropy.     

The Howe Duality for the Dunkl Version of the Dirac Operator

The classical Fischer decomposition of polynomials on Euclidean space makes it possible to express any polynomial as a sum of harmonic polynomials multiplied by powers of |x|². A deformation of the Laplace operator was recently introduced by Ch.F. Dunkl. It has the property that the symmetry with respect to the orthogonal group is broken to a finite subgroup generated by reflections (a Coxeter group). It was shown by B. ?rsted and S. Ben Said that there is a deformation of the Fischer decomposition for polynomials with respect to the Dunkl harmonic functions. In Clifford analysis, a Dunkl version of the Dirac operator was introduced and studied by P. Cerejeiras, U. K?hler and G. Ren. The aim of the article is to describe an analogue of the Fischer decomposition for solutions of the Dunkl Dirac operator. The main methods used are coming from representation theory, in particular, from ideas connected with Howe dual pairs. This paper is dedicated to the memory of our friend and colleague Jarolim Bureš to recall our long lasting cooperation on many topics in mathematics The work presented here is a part of the research project MSM 0021620839 and was supported also by the grant GA ČR 201/05/2117.

Mean convergence of Fourier-Dunkl series

In the context of the Dunkl transform a complete orthogonal system arises in a very natural way. This paper studies the weighted norm convergence of the Fourier series expansion associated to this system. We establish conditions on the weights, in terms of the Ap classes of Muckenhoupt, which ensure the convergence. Necessary conditions are also proved, which for a wide class of weights coincide with the sufficient conditions.     

Boundary Values of Generalized Harmonic Functions Associated with the Rank-One Dunkl Operator

We consider the local boundary values of generalized harmonic functions associated with the rank-one Dunkl operator $D$ in the upper half-plane $R^{2}_+=R\times(0,\infty)$, where $$(Df)(x)=f'(x)+(\lambda/x)[f(x)-f(-x)]$$ for given $\lambda\ge0$. A $C^2$ function $u$ in $R^{2}_+$ is said to be $\lambda$-harmonic if $(D_x^2+\partial_{y}^2)u=0$. For a $\lambda$-harmonic function $u$ in $R^{2}_+$ and for a subset $E$ of $\partial R^{2}_+=R$ symmetric about $y$-axis, we prove that the following three assertions are equivalent: (i) $u$ has a finite non-tangential limit at $(x,0)$ for a.e. $x\in E$; (ii) $u$ is non-tangentially bounded for a.e. $x\in E$; (iii) $(Su)(x)<\infty$ for a.e. $x\in E$, where $S$ is a Lusin-type area integral associated with the Dunkl operator $D$.     

A transference theorem for the Dunkl transform and its applications

For a family of weight functions invariant under a finite reflection group, we show how weighted Lp multiplier theorems for Dunkl transform on the Euclidean space Rd can be transferred from the corresponding results for h-harmonic expansions on the unit sphere Sd of Rd+1. The result is then applied to establish a Hörmander type multiplier theorem for the Dunkl transform and to show the convergence of the Bochner-Riesz means of the Dunkl transform of order above the critical index in weighted Lp spaces.     

Almansi decomposition for Dunkl operators

Let Ωbe a G-invariant convex domain in RN including 0, where G is a Coxeter group associated with reduced root system R. We consider functions f defined in Ωwhich are Dunkl polyharmonic, i.e. (△h)nf =0 for some integer n. Here △h=∑j=1N Dj2 is the Dunkl Laplacian, and Dj is the Dunkl operator attached to the Coxeter group G, where kv is a multiplicity function on R and σv is the reflection with respect to the root v. We prove that any Dunkl polyharmonic function f has a decomposition of the form f(x)=f0(x) |x|2f1(x) … |x|2(n-1)fn-1(x),(?)x∈Ω, where fj are Dunkl harmonic functions, i.e. △hfj = 0. This generalizes the classical Almansi theorem for polyharmonic functions as well as the Fischer decomposition.     

The Heat Semigroup for the Jacobi–Dunkl Operator and the Related Markov Processes

This paper is devoted to the heat equation associated with the Jacobi–Dunkl operator on the real line. In particular we show that the heat semigroup has a strictly positive kernel and a finite Green operator. As a direct application, we solve the Poisson equation and we introduce a new family of one-dimensional Markov processes.     

Dunkl heat semigroup and applications

In this article we characterize the Dunkl–Besov spaces and prove the embedding Sobolev theorems via the Dunkl heat semigroup. We also study the dispersive properties of the solutions of the Dunkl heat equation. Furthermore, we consider a few applications of these results to the corresponding nonlinear Cauchy problems on generalized functional spaces.     

Dunkl-Schrödinger semigroups and applications

We obtain dispersive estimates for the linear Dunkl–Schrödinger equations with and without quadratic potential. As a consequence, we prove the local well-posedness for semilinear Dunkl–Schrödinger equations with polynomial nonlinearity in certain magnetic field. Furthermore, we study many applications: as the uncertainty principles for the Dunkl transform via the Dunkl–Schrödinger semigroups, the embedding theorems for the Sobolev spaces associated with the generalized Hermite semigroup. Finally, almost every where convergence of the solutions of the Dunkl–Schrödinger equation is also considered.     

Hobson's formula for Dunkl operators and its applications

We generalize classical Hobson's formula concerning partial derivatives of radial functions on a Euclidean space to a formula in the Dunkl analysis. As applications we give new simple proofs of known results involving Maxwell's representation of harmonic polynomials, Bochner–Hecke identity, Pizzetti formula for spherical mean, and Rodrigues formula for generalized Hermite polynomials.
