We study $L^p$ boundedness of the maximal average over dilations of a smooth hypersurface $S$. When the decay rate of the Fourier transform of a measure on $S$ is $1/2$, we establish the optimal maximal bound, which settles the conjecture…

In this work, we consider the Cauchy problem for $u' - Au = f$ with $A$ the Laplacian operator on some Riemannian manifolds or a sublapacian on some Lie groups or some second order elliptic operators on a domain. We show the boundedness of…

We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\mathbb{M}_{\sigma}$ associated to flat plane curves with Mitigating factors, defined by $$\mathbb{M}_{\sigma}f(x) \, := \, \sup_{1 \leq t \leq 2} \left|\int_{0}^{1} f(x-t\Gamma(s)) \,…

In this paper, we study the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)$-improving bounds, i.e., $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)\rightarrow L^q(\mathbb{R}^2)$ estimates, of the maximal function $M_{\gamma}$ along a plane curve $(t,\gamma(t))$, where…

Given sparse collections of measurable sets $\mathcal S_k$, $k=1,2,\ldots ,N$, in a general measure space $(X,\mathfrak M,\mu)$, let $ \Lambda_{\mathcal S_k}$ be the sparse operator, corresponding to $\mathcal S_k$. We show that the maximal…

We study the maximal operator on the variable exponent H\"older spaces in the setting of metric measure spaces. The boundedness is proven for metric measure spaces satisfying an annular decay property. Let us stress that there are no…

We establish optimal L^p bounds for the nontangential maximal function of the gradient of the solution to a second order elliptic operator in divergence form, possibly non-symmetric, with bounded measurable coefficients independent of the…

We prove endpoint bounds for derivatives of fractional maximal functions with either smooth convolution kernel or lacunary set of radii in dimensions $n \geq 2$. We also show that the spherical fractional maximal function maps $L^{p}$ into…

In this paper, for general plane curves $\gamma$ satisfying some suitable smoothness and curvature conditions, we obtain the single annulus $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)$-boundedness of the Hilbert transforms $H^\infty_{U,\gamma}$ along the variable…

We prove that averaging operators are uniformly bounded on $L^1$ for all geometrically doubling metric measure spaces, with bounds independent of the measure. From this result, the $L^1$ convergence of averages as $r \to 0$ immediately…
