The purpose of this note is to prove that the strong Christ-Goldberg maximal function is bounded. This is a matrix weighted maximal operator appearing in the theory of matrix weighted norm inequalities. Related to this we record the Rubio de Francia extrapolation theorem with bi-parameter matrix weights.
Zygmund dilations are a group of dilations lying in between the standard product theory and the one-parameter setting - in $\mathbb{R}^3 = \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}$ they are the dilations $(x_1, x_2, x_3) \mapsto (δ_1 x_1, δ_2 x_2, δ_1 δ_2 x_3)$. The dyadic multiresolution analysis and the related dyadic-probabilistic methods have been very impactful in the modern product singular integral theory. However, the multiresolution analysis has not been understood in the Zygmund dilation setting or in other modified product space settings. In this paper we develop this missing dyadic multiresolution analysis of Zygmund type, and justify its usefulness by bounding, on weighted spaces, a general class of singular integrals that are invariant under Zygmund dilations. We provide novel examples of Zygmund $A_p$ weights and Zygmund kernels showcasing the optimality of our kernel assumptions for weighted estimates.
We study singular integral operators with kernels that are more singular than standard Calderón-Zygmund kernels, but less singular than bi-parameter product Calderón-Zygmund kernels. These kernels arise as restrictions to two dimensions of certain three-dimensional kernels adapted to so-called Zygmund dilations, which is part of our motivation for studying these objects. We make the case that such kernels can, in many ways, be seen as part of the extended realm of standard kernels by proving that they satisfy both a T1 theorem and commutator estimates in a form reminiscent of the corresponding results for standard Calderón-Zygmund kernels. However, we show that one-parameter weighted estimates, in general, fail.
We prove genuinely multilinear weighted estimates for singular integrals in product spaces. The estimates complete the qualitative weighted theory in this setting. Such estimates were previously known only in the one-parameter situation. Extrapolation gives powerful applications -- for example, a free access to mixed-norm estimates in the full range of exponents.
We present a framework based on modified dyadic shifts to prove multiple results of modern singular integral theory under mild kernel regularity. Using new optimized representation theorems we first revisit a result of Figiel concerning the UMD-extensions of linear Calderón-Zygmund operators with mild kernel regularity and extend our new proof to the multilinear setting improving recent UMD-valued estimates of multilinear singular integrals. Next, we develop the product space theory of the multilinear singular integrals with modified Dini-type assumptions, and use this theory to prove bi-parameter weighted estimates and two-weight commutator estimates.
We prove $L^p$ bounds for the extensions of standard multilinear Calderón-Zygmund operators to tuples of UMD spaces tied by a natural product structure. This can, for instance, mean the pointwise product in UMD function lattices, or the composition of operators in the Schatten-von Neumann subclass of the algebra of bounded operators on a Hilbert space. We do not require additional assumptions beyond UMD on each space - in contrast to previous results, we e.g. show that the Rademacher maximal function property is not necessary. The obtained generality allows for novel applications. For instance, we prove new versions of fractional Leibniz rules via our results concerning the boundedness of multilinear singular integrals in non-commutative $L^p$ spaces. Our proof techniques combine a novel scheme of induction on the multilinearity index with dyadic-probabilistic techniques in the UMD space setting.
We develop a general theory of multilinear singular integrals with operator-valued kernels, acting on tuples of UMD Banach spaces. This, in particular, involves investigating multilinear variants of the $\mathcal R$-boundedness condition naturally arising in operator-valued theory. We proceed by establishing a suitable representation of multilinear, operator-valued singular integrals in terms of operator-valued dyadic shifts and paraproducts, and studying the boundedness of these model operators via dyadic-probabilistic Banach space-valued analysis. In the bilinear case, we obtain a $T(1)$-type theorem without any additional assumptions on the Banach spaces other than the necessary UMD. Higher degrees of multilinearity are tackled via a new formulation of the Rademacher maximal function (RMF) condition. In addition to the natural UMD lattice cases, our RMF condition covers suitable tuples of non-commutative $L^p$-spaces. We employ our operator-valued theory to obtain new multilinear, multi-parameter, operator-valued theorems in the natural setting of UMD spaces with property $α$.
We complete our theory of weighted $L^p(w_1) \times L^q(w_2) \to L^r(w_1^{r/p} w_2^{r/q})$ estimates for bilinear bi-parameter Calderón--Zygmund operators under the assumption that $w_1 \in A_p$ and $w_2 \in A_q$ are bi-parameter weights. This is done by lifting a previous restriction on the class of singular integrals by extending a classical result of Muckenhoupt and Wheeden regarding weighted BMO spaces to the product BMO setting. We use this extension of the Muckenhoupt-Wheeden result also to generalise some two-weight commutator estimates from bi-parameter to multi-parameter. This gives a fully satisfactory Bloom type upper estimate for $[T_1, [T_2, \ldots [b, T_k]]]$, where each $T_i$ can be a completely general multi-parameter Calderón--Zygmund operator.
In this paper we present the results announced in the recent work by the first, second, and fourth authors of the current paper concerning Rubio de Francia extrapolation for the so-called multilinear Muckenhoupt classes. Here we consider the situations where some of the exponents of the Lebesgue spaces appearing in the hypotheses and/or in the conclusion can be possibly infinity. The scheme we follow is similar, but, in doing so, we need to develop a one-variable end-point off-diagonal extrapolation result. This complements the corresponding ``finite'' case obtained by Duoandikoetxea, which was one of the main tools in the aforementioned paper. The second goal of this paper is to present some applications. For example, we obtain the full range of mixed-norm estimates for tensor products of bilinear Calderón-Zygmund operators with a proof based on extrapolation and on some estimates with weights in some mixed-norm classes. The same occurs with the multilinear Calderón-Zygmund operators, the bilinear Hilbert transform, and the corresponding commutators with BMO functions. Extrapolation along with the already established weighted norm inequalities easily give scalar and vector-valued inequalities with multilinear weights and these include the end-point cases.
We prove that the class of trilinear multiplier forms with singularity over a one dimensional subspace, including the bilinear Hilbert transform, admit bounded $L^p$-extension to triples of intermediate $\mathrm{UMD}$ spaces. No other assumption, for instance of Rademacher maximal function type, is made on the triple of $\mathrm{UMD}$ spaces. Among the novelties in our analysis is an extension of the phase-space projection technique to the $\mathrm{UMD}$-valued setting. This is then employed to obtain appropriate single tree estimates by appealing to the $\mathrm{UMD}$-valued bound for bilinear Calderón-Zygmund operators recently obtained by the same authors.
For a bounded singular integral $T_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and a bounded singular integral $T_m$ in $\mathbb{R}^m$ we prove that $$ \| [T_n^1, [b, T_m^2]] \|_{L^p(μ) \to L^p(λ)} \lesssim_{[μ]_{A_p}, [λ]_{A_p}} \|b\|_{\operatorname{BMO}_{\textrm{prod}}(ν)}, $$ where $p \in (1,\infty)$, $μ, λ\in A_p$ and $ν:= μ^{1/p}λ^{-1/p}$. Here $T_n^1$ is $T_n$ acting on the first variable, $T_m^2$ is $T_m$ acting on the second variable, $A_p$ stands for the bi-parameter weights of $\mathbb{R}^n \times \mathbb{R}^m$ and $\operatorname{BMO}_{\textrm{prod}}(ν)$ is a weighted product BMO space.
Utilising some recent ideas from our bilinear bi-parameter theory, we give an efficient proof of a two-weight Bloom type inequality for iterated commutators of linear bi-parameter singular integrals. We prove that if $T$ is a bi-parameter singular integral satisfying the assumptions of the bi-parameter representation theorem, then $$ \| [b_k,\cdots[b_2, [b_1, T]]\cdots]\|_{L^p(μ) \to L^p(λ)} \lesssim_{[μ]_{A_p}, [λ]_{A_p}} \prod_{i=1}^k\|b_i\|_{\operatorname{bmo}(ν^{θ_i})} , $$ where $p \in (1,\infty)$, $θ_i \in [0,1]$, $\sum_{i=1}^kθ_i=1$, $μ, λ\in A_p$, $ν:= μ^{1/p}λ^{-1/p}$. Here $A_p$ stands for the bi-parameter weights in $\mathbb{R}^n \times \mathbb{R}^m$ and $\operatorname{bmo}(ν)$ is a suitable weighted little BMO space. We also simplify the proof of the known first order case.
We develop a new general method to prove various non-doubling local Tb theorems. The method combines the non-homogeneous good lambda method of Tolsa, the big pieces Tb theorem of Nazarov-Treil-Volberg and a new change of measure argument based on stopping time techniques. We also improve known results and discuss some further applications.
We consider boundedness of a certain positive dyadic operator $$ T^σ\colon L^p(σ; \ \! \ell^2) \to L^p(ω), $$ that arose during our attempts to develop a two-weight theory for the Hilbert transform in $L^p$. Boundedness of $T^σ$ is characterized when $p \in [2, \infty)$ in terms of certain testing conditions. This requires a new Carleson-type embedding theorem that is also proved.
We demonstrate and develop dyadic-probabilistic methods in connection with non-homogeneous bilinear operators, namely singular integrals and square functions. We develop the full non-homogeneous theory of bilinear singular integrals using a modern point of view. The main result is a new global $Tb$ theorem for Calderón-Zygmund operators in this setting. Our main tools include maximal truncations, adapted Cotlar type inequalities and suppression and big piece methods. While proving our bilinear results we also advance and refine the linear theory of Calderón-Zygmund operators by improving techniques and results. For example, we simplify and make more efficient some non-homogeneous summing arguments appearing in $T1$ type proofs. As a byproduct, we can manage with ease quite general modulus of continuity in the kernel estimates. Our testing conditions are also quite general by virtue of the big piece method of proof.
We develop a wide general theory of bilinear bi-parameter singular integrals $T$. First, we prove a dyadic representation theorem starting from $T1$ assumptions and apply it to show many estimates, including $L^p \times L^q \to L^r$ estimates in the full natural range together with weighted estimates and mixed-norm estimates. Second, we develop commutator decompositions and show estimates in the full range for commutators and iterated commutators, like $[b_1,T]_1$ and $[b_2, [b_1, T]_1]_2$, where $b_1$ and $b_2$ are little BMO functions. Our proof method can be used to simplify and improve linear commutator proofs, even in the two-weight Bloom setting. We also prove commutator lower bounds by using and developing the recent median method.
We complete our boundedness theory of commutators of bilinear bi-parameter singular integrals by establishing the following result. If $T$ is a bilinear bi-parameter singular integral satisfying suitable $T1$ type assumptions, $\|b\|_{\operatorname{bmo}(\mathbb{R}^{n+m})} = 1$ and $1 < p, q \le \infty$ and $1/2 < r < \infty$ satisfy $1/p+1/q = 1/r$, then we have $$ \|[b, T]_1(f_1, f_2)\|_{L^r(\mathbb{R}^{n+m})} \lesssim \|f_1\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^{n+m})} \|f_2\|_{L^q(\mathbb{R}^{n+m})}. $$ Previously the range $r \le 1$ was proved only in the paraproduct free situation. The main novelty lies in the treatment of the so called partial paraproducts.
We study the boundedness properties of commutators formed by $b$ and $T$, where $T$ is a bilinear bi-parameter singular integral satisfying natural $T1$ type conditions and $b$ is a little BMO function. For paraproduct free bilinear bi-parameter singular integrals $T$ we prove that $[b, T]_1 \colon L^p(\mathbb{R}^{n+m}) \times L^q(\mathbb{R}^{n+m}) \to L^r(\mathbb{R}^{n+m})$ in the full range $1 < p, q \le \infty$, $1/2 < r < \infty$ satisfying $1/p+1/q = 1/r$. A special case is when $T$ is a bilinear bi-parameter multiplier. We also prove the corresponding Banach range result for all singular integrals satisfying the $T1$ type conditions. In doing so we simplify the corresponding linear proof. Lastly, we prove analogous results for iterated commutators.
