Weighted norm inequalities, off-diagonal estimates and elliptic operators. Part I: General operator theory and weights

This is the first part of a series of four articles. In this work, we are interested in weighted norm estimates. We put the emphasis on two results of different nature: one is based on a good-$λ$ inequality with two-parameters and the other uses Calderón-Zygmund decomposition. These results apply well to singular 'non-integral' operators and their commutators with bounded mean oscillation functions. Singular means that they are of order 0, 'non-integral' that they do not have an integral representation by a kernel with size estimates, even rough, so that they may not be bounded on all $L^p$ spaces for $1 < p < \infty$. Pointwise estimates are then replaced by appropriate localized $L^p-L^q$ estimates. We obtain weighted $L^p$ estimates for a range of $p$ that is different from $(1,\infty)$ and isolate the right class of weights. In particular, we prove an extrapolation theorem ' à la Rubio de Francia' for such a class and thus vector-valued estimates.

Weighted norm inequalities, off-diagonal estimates and elliptic operators. Part III: Harmonic analysis of elliptic operators

This is the third part of a series of four articles on weighted norm inequalities, off-diagonal estimates and elliptic operators. For $L$ in some class of elliptic operators, we study weighted norm $L^p$ inequalities for singular 'non-integral' operators arising from $L$ ; those are the operators $ϕ(L)$ for bounded holomorphic functions $ϕ$, the Riesz transforms $\nabla L^{-1/2}$ (or $(-Δ)^{1/2}L^{-1/2}$) and its inverse $L^{1/2}(-Δ)^{-1/2}$, some quadratic functionals $g\_{L}$ and $G\_{L}$ of Littlewood-Paley-Stein type and also some vector-valued inequalities such as the ones involved for maximal $L^p$-regularity. For each, we obtain sharp or nearly sharp ranges of $p$ using the general theory for boundedness of Part I and the off-diagonal estimates of Part II. We also obtain commutator results with BMO functions.

On necessary and sufficient conditions for $L^p$-estimates of Riesz transforms associated to elliptic operators on $\RR^n$ and related estimates

This article focuses on $L^p$ estimates for objects associated to elliptic operators in divergence form: its semigroup, the gradient of the semigroup, functional calculus, square functions and Riesz transforms. We introduce four critical numbers associated to the semigroup and its gradient that completely rule the ranges of exponents for the $L^p$ estimates. It appears that the case $p<2$ already treated earlier is radically different from the case $p>2$ which is new. We thus recover in a unified and coherent way many $L^p$ estimates and give further applications. The key tools from harmonic analysis are two criteria for $L^p$ boundedness, one for $p<2$ and the other for $p>2$ but in ranges different from the usual intervals $(1,2)$ and $(2,\infty)$.

Riesz transform on manifolds and heat kernel regularity

One considers the class of complete non-compact Riemannian manifolds whose heat kernel satisfies Gaussian estimates from above and below. One shows that the Riesz transform is $L^p$ bounded on such a manifold, for $p$ ranging in an open interval above 2, if and only if the gradient of the heat kernel satisfies a certain $L^p$ estimate in the same interval of $p$'s.

Carleson measures, trees, extrapolation, and $T(b)$ theorems

The theory of Carleson measures, stopping time arguments, and atomic decompositions has been well-established in harmonic analysis. More recent is the theory of phase space analysis from the point of view of wave packets on tiles, tree selection algorithms, and tree size estimates. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that the two theories are in fact closely related, by taking existing results and reproving them in a unified setting. In particular we give a dyadic version of extrapolation for Carleson measures, with two separate proofs, as well as a two-sided local dyadic $T(b)$ theorem which generalizes earlier $T(b)$ theorems of David, Journe, Semmes, and Christ.
