Convolution operators and variable Hardy spaces on the Heisenberg group

Abstract

Let $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ be the Heisenberg group. For $0 \leq \alpha < Q=2n+2$ and $N \in \mathbb{N}$ we consider exponent functions $p(\cdot) : \mathbb{H}^{n} \to (0, +\infty)$, which satisfies H\"older conditions, such that $\frac{Q}{Q+N} < p_{-} \leq p(\cdot) \leq p_{+} < \frac{Q}{\alpha}$. In this article we prove the $H^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb{H}^{n}) \to L^{q(\cdot)}(\mathbb{H}^{n})$ and $H^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb{H}^{n}) \to H^{q(\cdot)}(\mathbb{H}^{n})$ boundedness of convolution operators with kernels of type $(\alpha, N)$ on $\mathbb{H}^{n}$, where $\frac{1}{q(\cdot)} = \frac{1}{p(\cdot)} - \frac{\alpha}{Q}$. In particular, the Riesz potential on $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ satisfies such estimates.
