UMD Banach spaces and square functions associated with heat semigroups for Schr\"odinger and Laguerre operators

In this paper we define square functions (also called Littlewood-Paley-Stein functions) associated with heat semigroups for Schr\"odinger and Laguerre operators acting on functions which take values in UMD Banach spaces. We extend classical (scalar) L^p-boundedness properties for the square functions to our Banach valued setting by using \gamma-radonifying operators. We also prove that these L^p-boundedness properties of the square functions actually characterize the Banach spaces having the UMD property

Discrete harmonic analysis associated with ultraspherical expansions

We study discrete harmonic analysis associated with ultraspherical orthogonal functions. We establish weighted l^p-boundedness properties of maximal operators and Littlewood-Paley g-functions defined by Poisson and heat semigroups generated by certain difference operator. We also prove weighted l^p-boundedness properties of transplantation operators associated to the system of ultraspherical functions. In order to show our results we previously establish a vector-valued local Calder\'on-Zygmund theorem in our discrete setting

Conical square functions associated with Bessel, Laguerre and Schr\"odinger operators in UMD Banach spaces

In this paper we consider conical square functions in the Bessel, Laguerre and Schr\"odinger settings where the functions take values in UMD Banach spaces. Following a recent paper of Hyt\"onen, van Neerven and Portal, in order to define our conical square functions, we use $\gamma$-radonifying operators. We obtain new equivalent norms in the Lebesgue-Bochner spaces $L^p((0,\infty ),\mathbb{B})$ and $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n,\mathbb{B})$, $1<p<\infty$, in terms of our square functions, provided that $\mathbb{B}$ is a UMD Banach space. Our results can be seen as Banach valued versions of known scalar results for square functions

Solutions of Weinstein equations representable by Bessel Poisson integrals of BMO functions

We consider the Weinstein type equation $\mathcal{L}_\lambda u=0$ on $(0,\infty )\times (0,\infty )$, where $\mathcal{L}_\lambda=\partial _t^2+\partial _x^2-\frac{\lambda (\lambda -1)}{x^2}$, with $\lambda >1$. In this paper we characterize the solutions of $\mathcal{L}_\lambda u=0$ on $(0,\infty )\times(0,\infty )$ representable by Bessel-Poisson integrals of BMO-functions as those ones satisfying certain Carleson properties
