Sharpness of some properties of Wiener amalgam and modulation spaces

We prove sharp estimates for the dilation operator $f(x)\longmapsto f(\lambda x)$, when acting on Wiener amalgam spaces $W(L^p,L^q)$. Scaling arguments are also used to prove the sharpness of the known convolution and pointwise relations for modulation spaces $M^{p,q}$, as well as the optimality of an estimate for the Schr\"odinger propagator on modulation spaces.Comment: 12 page

Time-frequency Analysis of Born-Jordan Pseudodifferential Operators

Born-Jordan operators are a class of pseudodifferential operators arising as a generalization of the quantization rule for polynomials on the phase space introduced by Born and Jordan in 1925. The weak definition of such operators involves the Born-Jordan distribution, first introduced by Cohen in 1966 as a member of the Cohen class. We perform a time-frequency analysis of the Cohen kernel of the Born -Jordan distribution, using modulation and Wiener amalgam spaces. We then provide sufficient and necessary conditions for Born-Jordan operators to be bounded on modulation spaces. We use modulation spaces as appropriate symbols classes.Comment: 21 pages, 1 figur

Pseudodifferential operators on LpL^p, Wiener amalgam and modulation spaces

We give a complete characterization of the continuity of pseudodifferential operators with symbols in modulation spaces $M^{p,q}$, acting on a given Lebesgue space $L^r$. Namely, we find the full range of triples $(p,q,r)$, for which such a boundedness occurs. More generally, we completely characterize the same problem for operators acting on Wiener amalgam space $W(L^r,L^s)$ and even on modulation spaces $M^{r,s}$. Finally the action of pseudodifferential operators with symbols in W(\Fur L^1,L^\infty) is also investigated.Comment: 27 page
