Operator-Valued Hardy spaces and BMO Spaces on Spaces of Homogeneous Type

Abstract

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra equipped with a normal semifinite faithful trace, $(\mathbb{X},\,d,\,\mu)$ be a space of homogeneous type in the sense of Coifman and Weiss, and $\mathcal{N}=L_\infty(\mathbb{X})\overline{\otimes}\mathcal{M}$. In this paper, we introduce and then conduct a systematic study on the operator-valued Hardy space $\mathcal{H}_p(\mathbb{X},\,\mathcal{M})$ for all $1\leq p<\infty$ and operator-valued BMO space $\mathcal{BMO}(\mathbb{X},\,\mathcal{M})$. The main results of this paper include $H_1$--$BMO$ duality theorem, atomic decomposition of $\mathcal{H}_1(\mathbb{X},\,\mathcal{M})$, interpolation between these Hardy spaces and BMO spaces, and equivalence between mixture Hardy spaces and $L_p$-spaces. %Compared with the communcative results, the novelty of this article is that $\mu$ is not assumed to satisfy the reverse double condition. %The approaches we develop bypass the use of harmonicity of infinitesimal generator, which allows us to extend Mei's seminal work \cite{m07} to a broader setting. %Our results extend Mei's seminal work \cite{m07} to a broader setting. In particular, without the use of non-commutative martingale theory as in Mei's seminal work \cite{m07}, we provide a direct proof for the interpolation theory. Moreover, under our assumption on Calder\'{o}n representation formula, these results are even new when going back to the commutative setting for spaces of homogeneous type which fails to satisfy reverse doubling condition. As an application, we obtain the $L_p(\mathcal{N})$-boundedness of operator-valued Calder\'{o}n-Zygmund operators.
