Variational inequalities for the commutators of rough operators with BMO functions

In this paper, starting with a relatively simple observation that the variational estimates of the commutators of the standard Calderón-Zygmund operators with the BMO functions can be deduced from the weighted variational estimates of the standard Calderón-Zygmund operators themselves, we establish similar variational estimates for the commutators of the BMO functions with rough singular integrals which do not admit any weighted variational estimates. The proof involves many Littlewood-Paley type inequalities with commutators as well as Bony decomposition and related para-product estimates.

Some jump and variational inequalities for the Calderón commutators and related operators

In this paper, we establish jump and variational inequalities for the Calderón commutators, which are typical examples of non-convolution Calderón-Zygmund operators. For this purpose, we also show jump and variational inequalities for para-products and commutators from pseudo-differential calculus, which are of independent interest. New ingredients in the proofs involve identifying Carleson measures constructed from sequences of stopping times, in addition to many Littlewood-Paley type estimates with gradient.

Noncommutative ergodic averages of balls and spheres over Euclidean spaces

In this paper, we establish a noncommutative analogue of Calderón's transference principle, which allows us to deduce noncommutative ergodic maximal inequalities from the special case---operator-valued maximal inequalities. As applications, we deduce dimension-free estimates of noncommutative Wiener's maximal ergodic inequality and noncommutative Stein-Calderón's maximal ergodic inequality over Euclidean spaces. We also show the corresponding individual ergodic theorems. To show Wiener's pointwise ergodic theorem, we construct a dense subset on which pointwise convergence holds following a somewhat standard way. To show Jones' pointwise ergodic theorem, we use again transference principle together with Littlewood-Paley method, which is different from Jones' original variational method that is still unavailable in the noncommutative setting.

Noncommutative maximal ergodic theorems for spherical means on the Heisenberg group

We prove maximal ergodic theorems for spherical averages on the Heisenberg groups acting on $L_p$ spaces over measure spaces not necessarily commutative, that is, on noncommutative $L_p$ spaces. The scale of $p$ is optimal in the reduced Heisenberg group case. We also obtain the corresponding individual ergodic theorems and differential theorems in the noncommutative setting. The results can be regarded as noncommutative analogues of Nevo-Thangavelu's ergodic theorems. The approach of proof involves recent developments in noncommutative $L_p$ spaces and in noncommutative harmonic analysis, in addition to the spectral theory used in the commutative setting.

Asymmetric Doob inequalities in continuous time

The present paper is devoted to the second part of our project on asymmetric maximal inequalities, where we consider martingales in continuous time. Let $(\mathcal M,τ)$ be a noncommutative probability space equipped with a continuous filtration of von Neumann subalgebras $(\mathcal M_t)_{0\leq t\leq1}$ whose union is weak-$*$ dense in $\mathcal{M}$. Let $\mathcal E_t$ denote the corresponding family of conditional expectations. As for discrete filtrations, we shall prove that for $1 < p < 2$ and $x \in L_p(\mathcal M,τ)$ one can find $a, b \in L_p(\mathcal M,τ)$ and contractions $u_t, v_t \in \mathcal M$ such that $$\mathcal E_t(x) = a u_t + v_t b \quad \mbox{and} \quad \max \big\{ \|a\|_p, \|b\|_p \big\} \le c_p \|x\|_p.$$ Moreover, $a u_t$ and $v_t b$ converge in the row/column Hardy spaces $\mathcal H_p^r(\mathcal M)$ and $\mathcal H_p^c(\mathcal M)$ respectively. We also confirm in the continuous setting the validity of related asymmetric maximal inequalities which we recently found for discrete filtrations, including $p=1$. As for other results in noncommutative martingale theory, the passage from discrete to continuous index is quite technical and requires genuinely new methods. Our approach towards asymmetric maximal inequalities is based on certain construction of conditional expectations for a sequence of projective systems of $L_p$-modules. The convergence in $\mathcal H_p^r(\mathcal M)$ and $\mathcal H_p^c(\mathcal M)$ also imposes new algebraic atomic decompositions.

Hypercontractivity of heat semigroups on free quantum groups

In this paper we study two semigroups of completely positive unital self-adjoint maps on the von Neumann algebras of the free orthogonal quantum group $O_N^+$ and the free permutation quantum group $S_N^+$. We show that these semigroups satisfy ultracontractivity and hypercontractivity estimates. We also give results regarding spectral gap and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities.

Noncommutative multi-parameter Wiener-Wintner type ergodic theorem

In this paper, we establish a multi-parameter version of Bellow and Losert's Wiener-Wintner type ergodic theorem for dynamical systems not necessarily being commutative. More precisely, we introduce a weight class $\mathcal{D}$, which is shown to strictly include the multi-parameter bounded Besicovitch weight class, thus including the set $$Λ_d=\left\{\{λ^{k_1}_1\dotsmλ^{k_d}_d\}_{(k_1,\dots,k_d)\in \mathbb{N}^d}:\quad (λ_1,\dots,λ_d) \in \mathbb{T}^d\right\};$$ then prove a multi-parameter Bellow and Losert's Wiener-Wintner type ergodic theorem for the class $\mathcal{D}$ and for noncommutative trace preserving dynamical system $(\mathcal{M},τ,\mathbf{T})$. Restricted to consider the set $Λ_d$, we also prove a noncommutative multi-parameter analogue of Bourgain's uniform Wiener-Wintner ergodic theorem. The noncommutativity and the multi-parameter induce some difficulties in the proof. For instance, our arguments in proving the uniform convergence for a dense subset turn out to be quite different since the "pointwise" argument does not work in the noncommutative setting; to obtain the uniform convergence in the largest spaces, we show maximal inequality between the Orlicz spaces, which can not be deduced easily using classical extrapolation argument. Junge and Xu's noncommutative maximal inequalities with optimal order, together with the atomic decomposition of Orlicz spaces, play an essential role in overcoming the second difficulty.

Jump and variational inequalities for rough operators

In this paper, we systematically study jump and variational inequalities for rough operators, whose research have been initiated by Jones {\it et al}. More precisely, we show some jump and variational inequalities for the families $\mathcal T:=\{T_\varepsilon\}_{\varepsilon>0}$ of truncated singular integrals and $\mathcal M:=\{M_t\}_{t>0}$ of averaging operators with rough kernels, which are defined respectively by $$ T_\varepsilon f(x)=\int_{|y|>\varepsilon}\frac{Ω(y')}{|y|^n}f(x-y)dy $$ and $$M_t f(x)=\frac1{t^n}\int_{|y|<t}Ω(y')f(x-y)dy, $$ where the kernel $Ω$ belongs to $L\log^+\!\!L(\mathbf S^{n-1})$ or $H^1(\mathbf S^{n-1})$ or $\mathcal{G}_α(\mathbf S^{n-1})$ (the condition introduced by Grafakos and Stefanov). Some of our results are sharp in the sense that the underlying assumptions are the best known conditions for the boundedness of corresponding maximal operators.

Vector-valued Hilbert transforms along curves

In this paper, we show that Hilbert transforms along some curves are bounded on $L^p({\mathbb R}^n;X)$ for some $1<p<\infty$ and some UMD spaces $X$. In particular, we prove that the Hilbert transform along some curves are completely $L^p$-bounded in the terminology from operator space theory. Moreover, we obtain the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n;X)$-boundedness of anisotropic singular integrals by using the "method of rotations" of Calderón-Zygmund. All these results extend the existing related ones.

Algebraic Davis decomposition and asymmetric Doob inequalities

In this paper we investigate asymmetric forms of Doob maximal inequality. The asymmetry is imposed by noncommutativity. Let $(\M,τ)$ be a noncommutative probability space equipped with a weak-$*$ dense filtration of von Neumann subalgebras $(\M_n)_{n \ge 1}$. Let $\E_n$ denote the corresponding family of conditional expectations. As an illustration for an asymmetric result, we prove that for $1 < p < 2$ and $x \in L_p(\M,τ)$ one can find $a, b \in L_p(\M,τ)$ and contractions $u_n, v_n \in \M$ such that $$\E_n(x) = a u_n + v_n b \quad \mbox{and} \quad \max \big\{ \|a\|_p, \|b\|_p \big\} \le c_p \|x\|_p.$$ Moreover, it turns out that $a u_n$ and $v_n b$ converge in the row/column Hardy spaces $\H_p^r(\M)$ and $\H_p^c(\M)$ respectively. In particular, this solves a problem posed by Defant and Junge in 2004. In the case $p=1$, our results establish a noncommutative form of Davis celebrated theorem on the relation between martingale maximal and square functions in $L_1$, whose noncommutative form has remained open for quite some time. Given $1 \le p \le 2$, we also provide new weak type maximal estimates, which imply in turn left/right almost uniform convergence of $\E_n(x)$ in row/column Hardy spaces. This improves the bilateral convergence known so far. Our approach is based on new forms of Davis martingale decomposition which are of independent interest, and an algebraic atomic description for the involved Hardy spaces. The latter results are new even for commutative von Neumann algebras.

Vector valued $q$-variation for differential operators and semigroups I

In this paper, we establish $\mathcal B$-valued variational inequalities for differential operators, ergodic averages and symmetric diffusion semigroups under the condition that Banach space $\mathcal B$ has martingale cotype property. These results generalize, on the one hand Pisier and Xu's result on the variational inequalities for $\mathcal B$-valued martingales, on the other hand many classical variational inequalities in harmonic analysis and ergodic theory. Moreover, we show that Rademacher cotype $q$ is necessary for the $\mathcal B$-valued $q$-variational inequalities. As applications of the variational inequalities, we deduce the jump estimates and obtain quantitative information on the rate of convergence. It turns out the rate of convergence depends on the geometric property of the Banach space under consideration, which considerably improve Cowling and Leinert's result where it is shown that the convergence always holds for all Banach spaces.

Vector valued $q$-variation for differential operators and semigroups II

In this paper, we establish UMD lattice-valued variational inequalities for differential operators, ergodic averages and analytic semigroups. These results generalize, on the one hand some scalar-valued variational inequalities in ergodic theory, on the other hand Xu's very recent result on UMD lattice-valued maximal inequality. As a consequence, we deduce the jump estimates and obtain quantitative information on the rate of the pointwise convergence.

The behavior of the bounds of matrix-valued maximal inequality in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for large $n$

In this paper, we study the behavior of the bounds of matrix-valued maximal inequality in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for large $n$. The main result of this paper is that the $L_p$-bounds ($p>1$) can be taken to be independent of $n$, which is a generalization of Stein and Strömberg's resut in the scalar-valued case. We also show that the weak type $(1,1)$ bound has similar behavior as Stein and Stömberg's.

The behaviour of square functions from ergodic theory in $L^{\infty}$

In this paper, we analyze carefully the behaviour in $L^\infty(\mathbb R)$ of the square functions $S$ and $S_\mathcal I$'s, originating from ergodic theory. Firstly, we show that we can find some function $f\in L^\infty(\mathbb{R})$, such that $Sf$ equals infinity on a nonzero measure set. Secondly, we can find compact supported function $f\in L^\infty(\mathbb{R})$ and $\mathcal I$ such that $S_\mathcal{I} f$ does not belong to $BMO$ space. Finally, we show that $S$ is bounded from $L^{\infty}_c$ to $BMO$ space. As a consequence, we solve an open question posed by Jones, Kaufman, Rosenblatt and Wierdl in \cite{JKRW98}. That is, $S_\mathcal I$ are uniformly bounded in $L^p(\mathbb R)$ with respect to $\mathcal I$ for $2<p<\infty$.

Banach lattice-valued $q$-variation and convexity

In this paper, we show that the $q$-variation for differential operator is not bounded in $L^p(\mathbb{R};L^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}))$ for any $1<p<\infty$. As a consequence, the $q$-variation operator can not be used to characterize the Hardy-Littlewood property of the underlying Banach lattice. Moreover, for Köthe function spaces $X$ with $X^*$ norming such that $X$ is $r$-convex for some large $r$, and $X$ is not $s$-convex for any $s$, $r<s<\infty$, we obtain lower bounds of the $(L^p(\mathbb{R};X),L^p(\mathbb{R};X)$-bounds of the $q$-variation operator, which tends to $\infty$, as $r$ tends to $\infty$.

John-Nirenberg inequality and atomic decomposition for noncommutative martingales

In this paper, we study the John-Nirenberg inequality for BMO and the atomic decomposition for H1 of noncommutative martingales. We first establish a crude version of the column (resp. row) John-Nirenberg inequality for all 0 < p < \infty. By an extreme point property of Lp -space for 0 < p \leq 1, we then obtain a fine version of this in equality. The latter corresponds exactly to the classical John-Nirenberg inequality and enables us to obtain an exponential integrability inequality like in the classical case. These results extend and improve Junge and Musat's John-Nirenberg inequality. By duality, we obtain the corresponding q-atomic decomposition for different Hardy spaces H1 for all 1<q\leq\infty, which extends the 2-atomic decomposition previously obtained by Bekjan et al. Finally, we give a negative answer to a question posed by Junge and Musat about BMO.

Calderón-Zygmund operators associated to matrix-valued kernels

Calderón-Zygmund operators with noncommuting kernels may fail to be Lp-bounded for $p \neq 2$, even for kernels with good size and smoothness properties. Matrix-valued paraproducts, Fourier multipliers on group vNa's or noncommutative martingale transforms are frameworks where we find such difficulties. We obtain weak type estimates for perfect dyadic CZO's and cancellative Haar shifts associated to noncommuting kernels in terms of a row/column decomposition of the function. Arbitrary CZO's satisfy $H_1 \to L_1$ type estimates. In conjunction with $L_\infty \to BMO$, we get certain row/column Lp estimates. Our approach also applies to noncommutative paraproducts or martingale transforms with noncommuting symbols/coefficients. Our results complement recent results of Junge, Mei, Parcet and Randrianantoanina.

Wavelet approach to operator-valued Hardy spaces

This paper is devoted to the study of operator-valued Hardy spaces via wavelet method. This approach is parallel to that in noncommutative martingale case. We show that our Hardy spaces defined by wavelet coincide with those introduced by Tao Mei via the usual Lusin and Littlewood-Paley square functions. As a consequence, we give an explicit complete unconditional basis of the Hardy space H1(R) when H1(R) is equipped with an appropriate operator space structure.
