Sparse domination and the strong maximal function

We study the problem of dominating the dyadic strong maximal function by $(1, 1)$-type sparse forms based on rectangles with sides parallel to the axes, and show that such domination is impossible. Our proof relies on an explicit construction of a pair of maximally separated point sets with respect to an appropriately defined notion of distance

Commutators of multi-parameter flag singular integrals and applications

We introduce the iterated commutator for the Riesz transforms in the multi-parameter flag setting, and prove the upper bound of this commutator with respect to the symbol $b$ in the flag BMO space. Our methods require the techniques of semigroups, harmonic functions and multi-parameter flag Littlewood-Paley analysis. We also introduce the big commutator in this multi-parameter flag setting and prove the upper bound with symbol $b$ in the flag little-bmo space by establishing the "exponential-logarithmic" bridge between this flag little bmo space and the Muckenhoupt $A_p$ weights with flag structure. As an application, we establish the div-curl lemmas with respect to the appropriate Hardy spaces in the multi-parameter flag setting.

On Falconer's distance set problem in the plane

If $E \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ is a compact set of Hausdorff dimension greater than $5/4$, we prove that there is a point $x \in E$ so that the set of distances $\{ |x-y| \}_{y \in E}$ has positive Lebesgue measure.

Weighted restriction estimates and application to Falconer distance set problem

We prove some weighted Fourier restriction estimates using polynomial partitioning and refined Strichartz estimates. As application we obtain improved spherical average decay rates of the Fourier transform of fractal measures, and therefore improve the results for the Falconer distance set conjecture in three and higher dimensions.

Two-weight inequalities for multilinear commutators

We prove Bloom type two-weight inequalities for commutators of multilinear singular integral operators including Calderón-Zygmund operators and their dyadic counterparts. Such estimates are further extended to a general higher order multilinear setting. The proof involves a pointwise sparse domination of multilinear commutators.

A sparse estimate for multisublinear forms involving vector-valued maximal functions

We prove a sparse bound for the $m$-sublinear form associated to vector-valued maximal functions of Fefferman-Stein type. As a consequence, we show that the sparse bounds of multisublinear operators are preserved via $\ell^r$-valued extension. This observation is in turn used to deduce vector-valued, multilinear weighted norm inequalities for multisublinear operators obeying sparse bounds, which are out of reach for the extrapolation theory recently developed by Cruz-Uribe and Martell. As an example, vector-valued multilinear weighted inequalities for bilinear Hilbert transforms are deduced from the scalar sparse domination theorem of the authors.

Product BMO, little BMO and Riesz Commutators in the Bessel setting

In this paper, we study the product BMO space, little bmo space and their connections with the corresponding commutators associated with Bessel operators studied by Weinstein, Huber, and by Muckenhoupt-Stein. We first prove that the product BMO space in the Bessel setting can be used to prove the boundedness of the iterated commutators with the Bessel Riesz transforms. We next study the little $\rm bmo$ space in this Bessel setting and obtain the equivalent characterization of this space in terms of commutators. We further show that in analogy with the classical setting, the little $\rm bmo$ space is a proper subspace of the product $\rm BMO$ space. These extend the previous related results studied by Cotlar-Sadosky and Ferguson-Sadosky on the bidisc to the Bessel setting.

Bilinear representation theorem

We represent a general bilinear Calderón-Zygmund operator as a sum of simple dyadic operators. The appearing dyadic operators also admit a simple proof of a sparse bound. In particular, the representation implies a so called sparse T1 theorem for bilinear singular integrals.

Sparse domination of Hilbert transforms along curves

We obtain sharp sparse bounds for Hilbert transforms along curves in $\mathbb{R}^n$, and derive as corollaries weighted norm inequalities for such operators. The curves that we consider include monomial curves and arbitrary $C^n$ curves with nonvanishing torsion.

A sparse domination principle for rough singular integrals

We prove that bilinear forms associated to the rough homogeneous singular integrals $T_Ω$ on $\mathbb R^d$, where the angular part $Ω\in L^q (S^{d-1})$ has vanishing average and $1<q\leq \infty$, and to Bochner-Riesz means at the critical index in $\mathbb R^d$ are dominated by sparse forms involving $(1,p)$ averages. This domination is stronger than the weak-$L^1$ estimates for $T_Ω$ and for Bochner-Riesz means, respectively due to Seeger and Christ. Furthermore, our domination theorems entail as a corollary new sharp quantitative $A_p$-weighted estimates for Bochner-Riesz means and for homogeneous singular integrals with unbounded angular part, extending previous results of Hytönen-Roncal-Tapiola for $T_Ω$. Our results follow from a new abstract sparse domination principle which does not rely on weak endpoint estimates for maximal truncations.

Banach-valued multilinear singular integrals

We develop a general framework for the analysis of operator-valued multilinear multipliers acting on Banach-valued functions. Our main result is a Coifman-Meyer type theorem for operator-valued multilinear multipliers acting on suitable tuples of UMD spaces. A concrete case of our theorem is a multilinear generalization of Weis' operator-valued Hörmander-Mihlin linear multiplier theorem. Furthermore, we derive from our main result a wide range of mixed $L^p$-norm estimates for multi-parameter multilinear paraproducts, leading to a novel mixed norm version of the partial fractional Leibniz rules of Muscalu et. al.. Our approach works just as well for the more singular tensor products of a one-parameter Coifman-Meyer multiplier with a bilinear Hilbert transform, extending results of Silva. We also prove several operator-valued $T (1)$-type theorems both in one parameter, and of multi-para\-meter, mixed-norm type. A distinguishing feature of our $T(1)$ theorems is that the usual explicit assumptions on the distributional kernel of $T$ are replaced with testing-type conditions. Our proofs rely on a newly developed Banach-valued version of the outer $L^p$ space theory of Do and Thiele.

Uniform sparse domination of singular integrals via dyadic shifts

Using the Calderón-Zygmund decomposition, we give a novel and simple proof that $L^2$ bounded dyadic shifts admit a domination by positive sparse forms with linear growth in the complexity of the shift. Our estimate, coupled with Hytönen's dyadic representation theorem, upgrades to a positive sparse domination of the class $\mathcal U$ of singular integrals satisfying the assumptions of the classical $T(1)$-theorem of David and Journé, with logarithmic-Dini type smoothness of the integral kernel. Furthermore, our proof extends rather easily to the $\mathbb R^n$-valued case, yielding as a corollary the operator norm bound on the matrix weighted space $L^2(W; \mathbb R^n),$ \[ \left\|T\otimes \mathrm{Id}_{\mathbb R^n}\right\|_{L^2(W; \mathbb R^n)\rightarrow L^2(W; \mathbb R^n)} \lesssim [W]_{A_2}^{\frac32} \] uniformly over $T\in \mathcal U$, which is the currently best known dependence.

Domination of multilinear singular integrals by positive sparse forms

We establish a uniform domination of the family of trilinear multiplier forms with singularity over a one-dimensional subspace by positive sparse forms involving $L^p$-averages. This class includes the adjoint forms to the bilinear Hilbert transforms. Our result strengthens the $L^p$-boundedness proved in \cite{MTT} and entails as a corollary a rich multilinear weighted theory. In particular, we obtain $L^{q_1}(v_1) \times L^{q_2}(v_2)$-boundedness of the bilinear Hilbert transform when the weights $v_j$ belong to the class $A_{\frac{q+1}{2}}\cap RH_2$. Our proof relies on a stopping time construction based on newly developed localized outer-$L^p$ embedding theorems for the wave packet transform. In an Appendix, we show how our domination principle can be applied to recover the vector-valued bounds for the bilinear Hilbert transforms recently proved by Benea and Muscalu.

A modulation invariant Carleson embedding theorem outside local $L^2$

The article arXiv:1309.0945 by Do and Thiele develops a theory of Carleson embeddings in outer $L^p$ spaces for the wave packet transform of functions in $ L^p(\mathbb R)$, in the $2\leq p\leq \infty$ range referred to as local $L^2$. In this article, we formulate a suitable extension of this theory to exponents $1<p<2$, answering a question posed in arXiv:1309.0945. The proof of our main embedding theorem involves a refined multi-frequency Calderón-Zygmund decomposition. We apply our embedding theorem to recover the full known range of $L^p$ estimates for the bilinear Hilbert transforms without reducing to discrete model sums or appealing to generalized restricted weak-type interpolation.

Higher order Journe commutators and characterizations of multi-parameter BMO

We consider iterated commutators of multiplication by a symbol function and tensor products of Hilbert or Riesz transforms. We establish mixed BMO classes of symbols that characterize boundedness of these objects in $L^p$. Little BMO and product BMO, big Hankel operators and iterated commutators are the base cases of our results. We use operator theoretical methods and existing profound results on iterated commutators for the Hilbert transform case, while the general result in several variables is obtained through the construction of a Journé operator that models the behavior of the multiple Hilbert transform. Upper estimates for commutators with paraproduct free Journé operators as well as weak factorisation results are proven.

Upper Bound for Multi-parameter Iterated Commutators

We show that the product BMO space can be characterized by iterated commutators of a large class of Calderón-Zygmund operators. This result follows from a new proof of boundedness of iterated commutators in terms of the BMO norm of their symbol functions, using Hytönen's representation theorem of Calderón-Zygmund operators as averages of dyadic shifts. The proof introduces some new paraproducts which have BMO estimates.

Multi-parameter singular integral operators and representation theorem

We formulate a class of singular integral operators in arbitrarily many parameters using mixed type characterizing conditions. We also prove a multi-parameter representation theorem saying that a general operator in our class can be represented as an average of sums of dyadic shifts, which implies a new multi-parameter $T1$ theorem as a byproduct. Furthermore, an equivalence result between ours and Journé's class of multi-parameter operators is established, whose proof requires the multi-parameter $T1$ theorem. These results generalize to arbitrarily many parameters recent results of Hytönen, Martikainen, and Grau de la Herran.

A T(b) Theorem on Product Spaces

The main result of this paper is a bi-parameter T(b) theorem for the case that b is a tensor product of two pseudo-accretive functions. In the proof, we also discuss the L^2 boundedness of different types of the b-adapted bi-parameter paraproducts.
