We prove that the generalized Carleson operator with polynomial phase function of degree two is of weak type (2,2). For this, we introduce a new approach to the time-frequency analysis of the quadratic phase.
We prove affirmatively the one dimensional case of a conjecture of Stein regarding the $L^p$-boundedness of the Polynomial Carleson operator, for $1<p<\infty$. The proof is based on two new ideas: i) developing a framework for \emph{higher-order wave-packet analysis} that is consistent with the time-frequency analysis of the (generalized) Carleson operator, and ii) a new tile discretization of the time-frequency plane that has the major consequence of \emph{eliminating the exceptional sets} from the analysis of the Carleson operator. As a further consequence, we are able to provide the full $L…
We prove the $L^p$-boundedness, $1<p<\infty$, of the Polynomial Carleson operator in general dimension. This follows the author's resolution of the one dimensional case as well as the work of Zorin-Kranich on the higher dimensional case in the setting $2\leq p<\infty$. The techniques used in this paper are direct adaptations and natural extensions to the higher dimensional case of the one-dimensional methods developed by the author.
We make progress on an interesting problem on the boundedness of maximal modulations of the Hilbert transform along the parabola. Namely, if we consider the multiplier arising from it and restrict it to lines, we prove uniform $L^p$ bounds for maximal modulations of the associated operators. Our methods consist of identifying where to use effectively the polynomial Carleson theorem, and where we can take advantage of the presence of oscillation to obtain decay through the $TT^*$ method.
In this paper, we study the dyadic Carleson Embedding Theorem in the matrix weighted setting. We provide two new proofs of this theorem, which highlight connections between the matrix Carleson Embedding Theorem and both maximal functions and $H^1$-BMO duality. Along the way, we establish boundedness results about new maximal functions associated to matrix $A_2$ weights and duality results concerning $H^1$ and BMO sequence spaces in the matrix setting. As an application, we then use this Carleson Embedding Theorem to show that if $S$ is a sparse operator, then the operator norm of $S$ on $L^2(W…
We prove that a variety of oscillatory and polynomial Carleson operators are uniformly bounded on the family of parameters under considerations. As a particular application of our techniques, we prove uniform bounds for oscillatory Carleson operators near a single scale version of the quadratic Carleson operator.
Quantitative versions of weighted estimates obtained by F. Ruiz and J.L. Torrea in the 80's for the operator \[ \mathcal{M}f(x,t)=\sup_{x\in Q,\,l(Q)\geq t}\frac{1}{|Q|}\int_{Q}|f(x)|dx \qquad x\in\mathbb{R}^{n}, \, t \geq0 \] are obtained. As a consequence, some sufficient conditions for the boundedness of $\mathcal{M}$ in the two weight setting in the spirit of the results obtained by C. Pérez and E. Rela and very recently by M.T. Lacey and S. Spencer for the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator are derived. As a byproduct some new quantitative estimates for the Poisson integral are obtained.
We prove $L^p$-boundedness of variational Carleson operators for functions valued in intermediate UMD spaces. This provides quantitative information on the rate of convergence of partial Fourier integrals of vector-valued functions. Our proof relies on bounds on wave packet embeddings into outer Lebesgue spaces on the time-frequency-scale space $\mathbb{R}^3_+$, which are the focus of this paper.
Consider the discrete maximal function acting on $\ell^2(\mathbb Z)$ functions \[ \mathcal{C}_Λ f( n ) := \sup_{ λ\in Λ} \left| \sum_{m \neq 0} f(n-m) \frac{e^{2 πiλm^2}} {m} \right| \] where $Λ\subset [0,1]$. We give sufficient conditions on $Λ$, met by certain kinds of Cantor sets, for this to be a bounded sublinear operator. This result is a discrete analogue of E. M. Stein's integral result, that the maximal operator below is bounded on $L^2(\mathbb R)$. \[ \mathcal{C}_2 f(x):= \sup_{λ\in \mathbb R} \left| \int f(x-y) \frac{e^{2πi λy^2}}{y} \ dy \right|.\] The proof of our result relies he…
Let $p\in (1,\infty)$. In this paper, for any given measurable function $u:\ \mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and a generalized plane curve $γ$ satisfying some conditions, the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)$ boundedness of the Hilbert transform along the variable plane curve $u(x_1)γ$ $$H_{u,γ}f(x_1,x_2):=\mathrm{p.\,v.}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}f(x_1-t,x_2-u(x_1)γ(t)) \,\frac{\textrm{d}t}{t}, \quad \forall\, (x_1,x_2)\in\mathbb{R}^2, $$ is obtained. At the same time, the $L^p(\mathbb{R})$ boundedness of the corresponding Carleson operator along the general curve $γ$ $$\mathcal{C}_{u,γ}f(x):=\mathrm{p.\,v.}…
We prove $L^p$ bounds for partial polynomial Carleson operators along monomial curves $(t,t^m)$ in the plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ with a phase polynomial consisting of a single monomial. These operators are "partial" in the sense that we consider linearizing stopping-time functions that depend on only one of the two ambient variables. A motivation for studying these partial operators is the curious feature that, despite their apparent limitations, for certain combinations of curve and phase, $L^2$ bounds for partial operators along curves imply the full strength of the $L^2$ bound for a one-dimensio…
In this work we extend consideration of the polynomial Carleson operator to the setting of a Radon transform acting along the paraboloid in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ for $n \geq 2$. Inspired by work of Stein and Wainger on the original polynomial Carleson operator, we develop a method to treat polynomial Carleson operators along the paraboloid via van der Corput estimates. A key new step in the approach of this paper is to approximate a related maximal oscillatory integral operator along the paraboloid by a smoother operator, which we accomplish via a Littlewood-Paley decomposition and the use of a s…
We prove the boundedness of the maximal operator and Hilbert transform along certain variable parabolas in $L^p$ for $p>p_0$ with some $p_0\in (1, 2)$. Connections with the Hilbert transform along vector fields and the polynomial Carleson's maximal operator are also discussed.
We consider boundedness of a certain positive dyadic operator $$ 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 prove boundedness of Calderón-Zygmund operators acting in Banach functions spaces on domains, defined by the $L_1$ Carleson functional and $L_q$ ($1<q<\infty$) Whitney averages. For such bounds to hold, we assume that the operator maps towards the boundary of the domain. We obtain the Carleson estimates by proving a pointwise domination of the operator, by sparse operators with a causal structure. The work is motivated by maximal regularity estimates for elliptic PDEs and is related to one-sided weighted estimates for singular integrals.
Let $B$ be a locally integrable matrix function, $W$ a matrix A${}_p$ weight with $1 < p < \infty$, and $T$ be any of the Riesz transforms. We will characterize the boundedness of the commutator $[T, B]$ on $L^p(W)$ in terms of the membership of $B$ in a natural matrix weighted BMO space. To do this, we will characterize the boundedness of dyadic paraproducts on $L^p(W)$ via a new matrix weighted Carleson embedding theorem. Finally, we will use some of the ideas from these proofs to (among other things) obtain quantitative weighted norm inequalities for these operators and also use them to pro…
In this paper, we consider $L^p$- estimate for a class of oscillatory integral operators satisfying the Carleson-Sjölin conditions with further convex and straight assumptions. As applications, the multiplier problem related to a general class of hypersurfaces with nonvanishing Gaussian curvature, local smoothing estimates for the fractional Schrödinger equation and the sharp resolvent estimates outside of the uniform boundedness range are discussed.
The first three results in this thesis are motivated by a far-reaching conjecture on boundedness of singular Brascamp-Lieb forms. Firstly, we improve over the trivial estimate for their truncations, thus excluding potential trivial counterexamples. Secondly, in a dyadic model we give a partial result in the trilinear, 2-dimensional case when one of the functions depends only on one variable. Thirdly, we estimate the multidimensional version of the polynomial Carleson operator, whose boundedness would also be a consequence of the conejcture. The final pair of results concerns directional square…
We improve the range of $\ell^p(\mathbb Z^d)$-boundedness of the integral $k$-spherical maximal functions introduced by Magyar. The previously best known bounds for the full $k$-spherical maximal function require the dimension $d$ to grow at least cubicly with the degree $k$. Combining ideas from our prior work with recent advances in the theory of Weyl sums by Bourgain, Demeter, and Guth and by Wooley, we reduce this cubic bound to a quadratic one. As an application, we deduce improved bounds in the ergodic Waring--Goldbach problem.
Recently in joint work with E. Sert, we proved sharp boundedness results on discrete fractional integral operators along binary quadratic forms. Present work vastly enhances the scope of those results by extending boundedness to bivariate quadratic polynomials. We achieve this in part by establishing connections to problems on concentration of lattice points on short arcs of conics, whence we study discrete fractional integrals and lattice point concentration from a unified perspective via tools of sieving and diophantine approximation, and prove theorems that are of interest to researchers in…
