We prove a general self-improvement property for a family of weighted pointwise inequalities on open sets, including pointwise Hardy inequalities with distance weights. For this purpose we introduce and study the classes of $p$-Poincaré and $p$-Hardy weights for an open set $Ω\subset X$, where $X$ is a metric measure space. We also apply the self-improvement of weighted pointwise Hardy inequalities in connection with usual integral versions of Hardy inequalities.
We prove fractional Sobolev-Poincaré inequalities, capacitary versions of fractional Poincaré inequalities, and pointwise and localized fractional Hardy inequalities in a metric space equipped with a doubling measure. Our results generalize and extend earlier work where such inequalities have been considered in the Euclidean spaces or in the non-fractional setting in metric spaces. The results concerning pointwise and localized variants of fractional Hardy inequalities are new even in the Euclidean case.
Pointwise convergence of the heat and subordinates of the heat semigroups associated with the Laplace operator on homogeneous trees and two weighted $L^p$ maximal inequalities
In recent years, it has been well understood that a Calderón-Zygmund operator $T$ is pointwise controlled by a finite number of dyadic operators of a very simple structure (called the sparse operators). We obtain a similar pointwise estimate for the commutator $[b,T]$ with a locally integrable function $b$. This result is applied into two directions. If $b\in BMO$, we improve several weighted weak type bounds for $[b,T]$. If $b$ belongs to the weighted $BMO$, we obtain a quantitative form of the two-weighted bound for $[b,T]$ due to Bloom-Holmes-Lacey-Wick.
We prove new pointwise bounds for weighted Bergman kernels in $\mathbb{C}^n$, whenever a coercivity condition is satisfied by the associated weighted Kohn Laplacian on $(0,1)$-forms. Our results extend the ones obtained in $\mathbb{C}$ by Christ. Our main idea is to develop a version of Agmon theory (originally introduced to deal with Schrödinger operators) for weighted Kohn Laplacians on $(0,1)$-forms, inspired by the fact that these are unitarily equivalent to certain generalized Schrödinger operators.
Let $Ω$ be an open set in a metric measure space $X$. Our main result gives an equivalence between the validity of a weighted Hardy-Sobolev inequality in $Ω$ and quasiadditivity of a weighted capacity with respect to Whitney covers of $Ω$. Important ingredients in the proof include the use of a discrete convolution as a capacity test function and a Maz'ya type characterization of weighted Hardy-Sobolev inequalities.
As the classical $(p,q)$-Poincaré inequality is known to fail for $0 < p < 1$, we introduce the notion of weighted multilinear Poincaré inequality as a natural alternative when $m$-fold products and $1/m < p$ are considered. We prove such weighted multilinear Poincaré inequalities in the subelliptic context associated to vector fields of Hörmader type. We do so by establishing multilinear representation formulas and weighted estimates for multilinear potential operators in spaces of homogeneous type.
We prove Poincaré and Sobolev inequalities in matrix A${}_p$ weighted spaces. We then use these Poincaré inequalities to prove existence and regularity results for degenerate systems of elliptic equations whose degeneracy is governed by a matrix A${}_p$ weight. Such results parallel earlier results by Fabes, Kenig, and Serapioni for a single degenerate equation governed by a scalar A${}_p$ weight. In addition, we prove Cacciopoli and reverse Hölder inequalities for weak solutions of the degenerate systems. As a means to prove the Poincaré inequalities we prove that the Riesz potential and frac…
We establish simple pointwise characterizations of functions in the Hardy-Sobolev spaces within the range n/(n+1)<p <=1. In addition, classical Hardy inequalities are extended to the case p <= 1.
We prove that if $μ_n$ are probability measures on $Z$ such that $\hat μ_n$ converges to 0 uniformly on every compact subset of $(0,1)$, then there exists a subsequence $\{n_k\}$ such that the weighted ergodic averages corresponding to $μ_{n_k}$ satisfy a pointwise ergodic theorem in $L^1$. We further discuss the relationship between Fourier decay and pointwise ergodic theorems for subsequences, considering in particular the averages along $n^2+ \lfloor ρ(n)\rfloor$ for a slowly growing function $ρ$. Under some monotonicity assumptions, the rate of growth of $ρ'(x)$ determines the existence of…
In this survey we review useful tools that naturally arise in the study of pointwise convergence problems in analysis, ergodic theory and probability. We will pay special attention to quantitative aspects of pointwise convergence phenomena from the point of view of oscillation estimates in both the single and several parameter settings. We establish a number of new oscillation inequalities and give new proofs for known results with elementary arguments.
A recent conjecture by I. Raşa asserts that the sum of the squared Bernstein basis polynomials is a convex function in $[0,1]$. This conjecture turns out to be equivalent to a certain upper pointwise estimate of the ratio $P_n^{\prime}(x)/P_n(x)$ for $x\geq 1$, where $P_n$ is the $n$-th Legendre polynomial. Here, we prove both upper and lower pointwise estimates for the ratios $\big(P_n^{(λ)}(x)\big)^{\prime}/P_n^{(λ)}(x)$, $~x\geq 1$, where $P_n^{(λ)}$ is the $n$-th ultraspherical polynomial. In particular, we validate Raşa's conjecture.
Some mathematical inequalities among various weighted means are studied. Inequalities on weighted logarithmic mean are given. Besides, the gap in Jensen's inequality is studied as a convex function approach. Consequently, some non-trivial inequalities on means are given. Some operator inequalities are also shown.
In this paper, we prove analogues of O'Neil's inequalities for the convolution in the weighted Lebesgue spaces. We also establish the weighted two-sided norm inequalities for the potential operator.
In this paper a reduction and equivalence theorems for the boundedness of the composition of a quasilinear operator $T$ with the Hardy and Copson operators in weighted Lebesgue spaces are proved. New equivalence theorems are obtained for the operator $T$ to be bounded in weighted Lebesgue spaces restricted to the cones of monotone functions, which allow to change the cone of non-decreasing functions to the cone of non-increasing functions and vice versa not changing the operator $T$. New characterizations of the weighted Hardy-type inequalities on the cones of monotone functions are given. The…
Using Bellman function approach, we present new proofs of weighted $L^2$ inequalities for square functions, with the optimal dependence on the $A_2$ characteristics of the weight and further explicit constants. We study the estimates both in the analytic and probabilistic context, and, as application, obtain related estimates for the classical Lusin and Littlewood-Paley square functions.
Several inequalities of Ostrowski-Gruss-type availabe in the literature are generalized by considering the weighted case of them. Involving the least concave majorant of the modulus of continuity we provide upper error bounds of such inequalities.
We revisit weighted Hardy-type inequalities employing an elementary ad hoc approach that yields explicit constants. We also discuss the infinite sequence of power weighted Birman-Hardy-Rellich-type inequalities and derive an operator-valued version thereof.
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.
We introduce a variant of the $C_p$ condition (denoted by $SC_p$), and show that it characterizes weighted weak type versions of the classical Coifman-Fefferman and Fefferman-Stein inequalities.
Inspired by the recent work by R.Pal et al., we give further refined inequalities for a convex Riemann integrable function, applying the standard Hermite-Hadamard inequality. Our approach is different from their one in \cite{PSMA2016}. As corollaries, we give the refined inequalities on the weighted logarithmic mean and weighted identric mean. Some further extensions are also given.
In this paper we obtain some weighted generalizations of Ostrowski type inequalities on time scales involving combination of weighted Δ-integral means, i.e., a weighted Ostrowski type inequality on time scales involving combination of weighted Δ-integral means, two weighted Ostrowski type inequalities for two functions on time scales, and some weighted perturbed Ostrowski type inequalities on time scales. We also give some other interesting inequalities and recapture some known results as special cases.
We establish a quantitative weighted inequality for the bilinear rough singular integral, where the bound is controlled by the cube of the weight constant.
The main result of this paper supports a conjecture by C. Pérez and E. Rela about a very recent result of theirs on self-improving theory. Also, we extend the conclusions of their theorem to the range $p<1$. As an application of our result, we give a unified vision of weighted improved Poincaré-type inequalities in the Euclidean setting, which gathers both weighted improved classical and fractional Poincaré inequalities within an approach which avoids any representation formula. We improve some already known results. Finally, we also explore analog inequalities in the context of metric spaces …
We prove weighted strong inequalities for the multilinear potential operator ${\cal T}_ϕ$ and its commutator, where the kernel $ϕ$ satisfies certain growth condition. For these operators we also obtain Fefferman-Stein type inequalities and Coifman type estimates. On the other hand we prove weighted weak type inequalities for the multilinear maximal operator $\mathcal{M}_{φ,B}$ associated to a essentially nondecreasing function $φ$ and to a submultiplicative Young function $B$. This result allows us to obtain a weighted weak type inequality for the operator ${\cal T}_ϕ$.
We prove an inequality of Hardy type for functions in Triebel-Lizorkin spaces. The distance involved is being measured to a given Ahlfors d-regular set in R^n, with n-1<d<n. As an application of the Hardy inequality, we consider boundedness of pointwise multiplication operators, and extension problems.
In this paper, we study the weighted inequality for multilinear fractional maximal operators and fractional integrals. We give sharp weighted estimates for both operators.
The aim of this paper is to provide Markov-type inequalities in the setting of weighted Sobolev spaces when the considered weights are generalized classical weights. Also, as results of independent interest, some basic facts about Sobolev spaces with respect to certain vector measures are stated.
We prove limit equalities between the sharp constants in weighted Nikolskii-type inequalities for multivariate polynomials on an $m$-dimensional cube and ball and the corresponding constants for entire functions of exponential type.
We obtain convolution inequalities in Lebesgue and Lorentz spaces with power weights when the functions involved are assumed to be radially symmetric. We also present applications of these results to inequalities for Riesz potentials of radial functions in weighted Lorentz spaces and embedding theorems for radial Besov spaces with power weights.
In this article, we present weighted norm inequality for a fractional one-sided minimal function. We prove weighted weak and strong type norm inequalities for the one-sided minimal function on $\mathbb{R}.$ We construct two weight classes to ensure the sufficient and necessary part of the weak and strong type estimates. Later, we establish an equivalence relation between these two weight classes.
In this paper we prove two matrix weighted norm inequalities for the commutator of a fractional integral operator and multiplication by a matrix symbol. More precisely, we extend the recent results of the second author, Pott, and Treil on two matrix weighted norm inequalities for commutators of Calderon-Zygmund operators and multiplication by a matrix symbol to the fractional integral operator setting. In particular, we completely extend the fractional Bloom theory of Holmes, Rahm, and Spencer to the two matrix weighted setting with a matrix
We prove weighted $q$-variation inequalities with $2<q<\infty$ for differential and singular integral operators in higher dimensions. The vector-valued extensions of these inequalities are also given.
We prove a pointwise estimate for positive dyadic shifts of complexity $m$ which is linear in the complexity. This can be used to give a pointwise estimate for Calderón-Zygmund operators and to answer a question posed by A. Lerner. Several applications to weighted estimates for both multilinear Calderón-Zygmund operators and square functions are discussed.
We establish sharp $L_p,1\le p<\infty$ weighted Remez- and Nikolskii-type inequalities for algebraic polynomials considered on a quasismooth (in the sense of Lavrentiev) curve in the complex plane.
We prove a weighted version of the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality for radially symmetric functions, and show that the range of admissible power weights appearing in the classical inequality due to Stein and Weiss can be improved in this particular case.
We obtain two-weighted $L^2$ norm inequalities for oscillatory integral operators of convolution type on the line whose phases are of finite type. The conditions imposed on the weights involve geometrically-defined maximal functions, and the inequalities are best-possible in the sense that they imply the full $L^p(\mathbb{R})\rightarrow L^q(\mathbb{R})$ mapping properties of the oscillatory integrals. Our results build on work of Carbery, Soria, Vargas and the first author.
In this paper we present inequalities between two generalizations of the hyperbolic metric and the j_G metric. We also prove inequalities between generalized versions of the j_G metric and Seittenranta's metric.
We prove a sharp upper bound on convex domains, in terms of the diameter alone, of the best constant in a class of weighted Poincaré inequalities. The key point is the study of an optimal weighted Wirtinger inequality.
In this note, we derive non trivial sharp bounds related to the weighted harmonic-geometric-arithmetic means inequalities, when two out of the three terms are known. As application, we give an explicit bound for the trace of the inverse of a symmetric positive definite matrix and an inequality related to the coefficients of polynomials with positive roots.
We obtain several versions of the Hausdorff-Young and Hardy-Littlewood inequalities for the $(k,a)$-generalized Fourier transform recently investigated at length by Ben Saï d, Kobayashi, and Ø rsted. We also obtain a number of weighted inequalities - in particular Pitt's inequality - that have application to uncertainty principles. Specifically we obtain several analogs of the Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl principle for $L^p$-functions, local Cowling-Price-type inequalities, Donoho-Stark-type inequalities and qualitative extensions. We finally use the Hausdorff-Young inequality as a means to obtain en…
