Maximal Inequalities and Lebesgue's Differentiation Theorem for Best Approximant by Constant over Balls

For fL_p( ⁿ), with 1p<∞, >0 and x ⁿ we denote by T(f)(x) the set of every best constant approximant to f in the ball B(x, ). In this paper we extend the operators T_p to the space L_p−1( ⁿ)+L_∞( ⁿ), where L₀ is the set of every measurable functions finite almost everywhere. Moreover we consider the maximal operators associated to the operators T_p and we prove maximal inequalities for them. As a consequence of these inequalities we obtain a generalization of Lebesgue's Differentiation Theorem.
