Endpoint estimates and weighted norm inequalities for commutators of fractional integrals

We prove that the commutator [b, Iα], b ∈ BMO, Iα the fractional integral operator, satisfies the sharp, modular weak-type inequality f(x) tdx, where B(t) = tlog(e + t) and Ψ(t)=[tlog(e + tα/n)]n/(n−α). These commutators were first considered by Chanillo, and our result complements his. The heart of our proof consists of the pointwise inequality, M#([b, Iα]f)(x) ≤ CbBMO [Iαf(x) + Mα,Bf(x)], where M# is the sharp maximal operator, and Mα,B is a generalization of the fractional maximal operator in the scale of Orlicz spaces. Using this inequality we also prove one-weight inequalities for the commutator; to do so we prove one and two-weight norm inequalities for Mα,B which are of interest in their own right.[b, Iα]f(x

Weighted endpoint estimates for commutators of fractional integrals

summary:Given $\alpha$, $0<\alpha <n$, and $b\in {\mathrm BMO}$, we give sufficient conditions on weights for the commutator of the fractional integral operator, $[b,I_\alpha ]$, to satisfy weighted endpoint inequalities on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and on bounded domains. These results extend our earlier work [3], where we considered unweighted inequalities on $\mathbb{R}^n$

A note on the off-diagonal Muckenhoupt-Wheeden conjecture

We obtain the off-diagonal Muckenhoupt-Wheeden conjecture for Calderón-Zygmund operators. Namely, given $1 < p < q < \infty$ and a pair of weights $(u; v)$, if the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function satisfies the following two weight inequalities: M:L^p(v) \to L^q(u) \quad \mbox{and} \quad M: L^{q'} (u^{1-q'}) \to (v^{1-p'} ); then any Calderón-Zygmund operator $T$ and its associated truncated maximal operator $T_{*}$ are bounded from $M:L^p(v)$ to $L^q(u)$. Additionally, assuming only the second estimate for $M$ then $T$ and $T_{*}$ map continuously $M:L^p(v)$ to $L^{q,\infty}(u)$ We also consider the case of generalized Haar shift operators and show that their off-diagonal two weight estimates are governed by the corresponding estimates for the dyadic Hardy-Littlewood maximal function

Logarithmic bump conditions for Calderón-Zygmund operators on spaces of homogeneous type

We establish two-weight norm inequalities for singular integral operators defined on spaces of homogeneous type. We do so first when the weights satisfy a double bump condition and then when the weights satisfy separated logarithmic bump conditions. Our results generalize recent work on the Euclidean case, but our proofs are simpler even in this setting. The other interesting feature of our approach is that we are able to prove the separated bump results (which always imply the corresponding double bump results) as a consequence of the double bump theorem

Norm inequalities for the minimal and maximal operator, and differentiation of the integral

We study the weighted norm inequalities for the minimal operator, a new operator analogous to the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator which arose in the study of reverse Hölder inequalities. We characterize the classes of weights which govern the strong and weak-type norm inequalities for the minimal operator in the two weight case, and show that these classes are the same. We also show that a generalization of the minimal operator can be used to obtain information about the differentiability of the integral in cases when the associated maximal operator is large, and we give a new condition for this maximal operator to be weak (1,1)

Boundedness of Pseudodifferential Operators on Banach Function Spaces

We show that if the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is bounded on a separable Banach function space $X(\mathbb{R}^n)$ and on its associate space $X'(\mathbb{R}^n)$, then a pseudodifferential operator $\operatorname{Op}(a)$ is bounded on $X(\mathbb{R}^n)$ whenever the symbol $a$ belongs to the H\"ormander class $S_{\rho,\delta}^{n(\rho-1)}$ with $0<\rho\le 1$, $0\le\delta<1$ or to the the Miyachi class $S_{\rho,\delta}^{n(\rho-1)}(\varkappa,n)$ with $0\le\delta\le\rho\le 1$, $0\le\delta0$. This result is applied to the case of variable Lebesgue spaces $L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb{R}^n)$.Comment: To appear in a special volume of Operator Theory: Advances and Applications dedicated to Ant\'onio Ferreira dos Santo

Geodynamics of synconvergent extension and tectonic mode switching: Constraints from the Sevier-Laramide orogen

Many orogenic belts experience alternations in shortening and extension (tectonic mode switches) during continuous plate convergence. The geodynamics of such alternations are not well understood. We present a record of Late Cretaceous to Eocene alternations of shortening and extension from the interior of the retroarc Sevier-Laramide orogen of the western United States. We integrate new Lu-Hf garnet geochronometry with revised PT paths utilizing differential thermobarometry combined with isochemical G-minimization plots, and monazite Th-Pb inclusion geochronometry to produce a well-constrained “M” shaped PTt path. Two burial events (86 and 65 Ma) are separated by ∼3 kbar of decompression. The first burial episode is Late Cretaceous, records a 2 kbar pressure increase at ∼515–550 °C and is dated by a Lu-Hf garnet isochron age of 85.5 ± 1.9 Ma (2σ); the second burial episode records ∼1 kbar of pressure increase at ∼585–615 °C, and is dated by radially decreasing Th-Pb ages of monazite inclusions in garnet between ∼65 and 45 Ma. We propose a synconvergent lithospheric delamination cycle, superimposed on a dynamic orogenic wedge, as a viable mechanism. Wedge tapers may evolve from critical to subcritical (amplification), to supercritical (separation), and back to subcritical (re-equilibration) owing to elevation changes resulting from isostatic adjustments during the amplification and separation of Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities, and post-separation thermal and rheological re-equilibration. For the Sevier-Laramide hinterland, the sequence of Late Cretaceous delamination, low-angle subduction, and slab rollback/foundering during continued plate convergence explains the burial-exhumation-burial-exhumation record and the “M-shaped” PTt path

Duals of variable exponent Hörmander spaces (0<p−≤p+≤10< p^- \le p^+ \le 1) and some applications

In this paper we characterize the dual \bigl(\B^c_{p(\cdot)} (\Omega) \bigr)' of the variable exponent H\"or\-man\-der space \B^c_{p(\cdot)} (\Omega) when the exponent $p(\cdot)$ satisfies the conditions $0 < p^- \le p^+ \le 1$, the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator $M$ is bounded on $L_{p(\cdot)/p_0}$ for some $0 < p_0 < p^-$ and $\Omega$ is an open set in $\R^n$. It is shown that the dual \bigl(\B^c_{p(\cdot)} (\Omega) \bigr)' is isomorphic to the H\"ormander space \B^{\mathrm{loc}}_\infty (\Omega) (this is the $p^+ \le 1$ counterpart of the isomorphism \bigl(\B^c_{p(\cdot)} (\Omega) \bigr)' \simeq \B^{\mathrm{loc}}_{\widetilde{p'(\cdot)}} (\Omega), $1 < p^- \le p^+ < \infty$, recently proved by the authors) and hence the representation theorem \bigl( \B^c_{p(\cdot)} (\Omega) \bigr)' \simeq l^{\N}_\infty is obtained. Our proof relies heavily on the properties of the Banach envelopes of the steps of \B^c_{p(\cdot)} (\Omega) and on the extrapolation theorems in the variable Lebesgue spaces of entire analytic functions obtained in a precedent paper. Other results for $p(\cdot) \equiv p$, $0 < p < 1$, are also given (e.g. \B^c_p (\Omega) does not contain any infinite-dimensional $q$-Banach subspace with $p < q \le 1$ or the quasi-Banach space \B_p \cap \E'(Q) contains a copy of $l_p$ when $Q$ is a cube in $\R^n$). Finally, a question on complex interpolation (in the sense of Kalton) of variable exponent H\"ormander spaces is proposed.J.
