Hardy Spaces Associated with Non-Negative Self-Adjoint Operators and Ball Quasi-Banach Function Spaces on Doubling Metric Measure Spaces and Their Applications

Abstract

Let $(\mathcal{X},d,\mu)$ be a doubling metric measure space in the sense of R. R. Coifman and G. Weiss, $L$ a non-negative self-adjoint operator on $L^2(\mathcal{X})$ satisfying the Davies--Gaffney estimate, and $X(\mathcal{X})$ a ball quasi-Banach function space on $\mathcal{X}$ satisfying some mild assumptions. In this article, the authors introduce the Hardy type space $H_{X,\,L}(\mathcal{X})$ by the Lusin area function associated with $L$ and establish the atomic and the molecular characterizations of $H_{X,\,L}(\mathcal{X}).$ As an application of these characterizations of $H_{X,\,L}(\mathcal{X})$, the authors obtain the boundedness of spectral multiplies on $H_{X,\,L}(\mathcal{X})$. Moreover, when $L$ satisfies the Gaussian upper bound estimate, the authors further characterize $H_{X,\,L}(\mathcal{X})$ in terms of the Littlewood--Paley functions $g_L$ and $g_{\lambda,\,L}^\ast$ and establish the boundedness estimate of Schr\"odinger groups on $H_{X,\,L}(\mathcal{X})$. Specific spaces $X(\mathcal{X})$ to which these results can be applied include Lebesgue spaces, Orlicz spaces, weighted Lebesgue spaces, and variable Lebesgue spaces. This shows that the results obtained in the article have extensive generality.
