We prove that the lacunary spherical maximal operator, defined on the $n$-dimensional real hyperbolic space, is bounded on $L^p(\mathbb{H}^n)$ for all $n\ge2$ and $1<p\le\infty$. In particular, the lacunary set is significantly larger than…

We consider the $L^p \rightarrow L^p$ boundedness of a Nikodym maximal function associated to a one-parameter family of tubes in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ whose directions are determined by a non-degenerate curve $\gamma$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$. These…

We provide a condition on a set of directions $\Omega \subset \mathbb{S}^1$ ensuring that the associated directional maximal operator $M_\Omega$ is unbounded on $L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)$ for every $1 \leq p < \infty$. The techniques of proof…

We study discretized maximal operators associated to averaging over (neighborhoods of) squares in the plane and, more generally, $k$-skeletons in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Although these operators are known not to be bounded on any $L^p$, we obtain…

We use the Hardy spaces for Fourier integral operators to obtain bounds for spherical maximal functions in $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$, $n\geq2$, where the radii of the spheres are restricted to a compact interval in $(0,\infty)$. These bounds…

For a function $f\in L^p(\Bbb R^d)$, $d\ge 2$, let $A_t f(x)$ be the mean of $f$ over the sphere of radius $t$ centered at $x$. Given a set $E\subset (0,\infty)$ of dilations we prove endpoint bounds for the maximal operator $M_E$ defined…

We study the $L^p$ mapping properties of the strong spherical maximal function, which is a multiparameter generalisation of Stein's spherical maximal function. We show that this operator is bounded on $L^p$ for $p > 2$ in all dimensions $n…

We obtain a sharp $L^2\times L^2 \to L^1$ boundedness criterion for a class of bilinear operators associated with a multiplier given by a signed sum of dyadic dilations of a given function, in terms of the $L^q$ integrability of this…

We find the sharp range for boundedness of the discrete bilinear spherical maximal function for dimensions $d \geq 5$. That is, we show that this operator is bounded on $l^{p}(\mathbb{Z}^d)\times l^{q}(\mathbb{Z}^d) \to l^{r}(\mathbb{Z}^d)$…

We prove that for a finite type curve in $\mathbb R^3$ the maximal operator generated by dilations is bounded on $L^p$ for sufficiently large $p$. We also show the endpoint $L^p \to L^{p}_{1/p}$ regularity result for the averaging operators…

Let $\Omega $ be any set of directions (unit vectors) on the plane. In this paper we study maximal operator of the one dimensional maximal function computed in the directions of $\Omega$ We are interested in extensions of lacunary sets of…

In this article we investigate $L^p$ boundedness of the spherical maximal operator $\mathfrak{m}^\alpha$ of (complex) order $\alpha$ on the $n$-dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$, which was introduced and studied by El Kohen. We…

We give almost sharp conditions under which the maximal operator associated with the wave equation with initial data in Sobolev space H^s(R^n) is bounded from H^s(R^n) to L^q(R^n).

We study the planar Nikod\'ym maximal operator $\mathcal{N}_{\Theta;\delta}$ associated to a direction set $\Theta \subset \mathbb{S}^{1}$. We show that the quasi-Assouad dimension $s := \dim_{\mathrm{qA}} \Theta$ characterises the…

In this paper, we study the spherical maximal operator $ M_E $ over $ E\subset [1,2]$, restricted to radial functions. In higher dimensions $ d\geq 3$, we establish a complete range of $ L^p-$improving estimates for $ M_E $. In two…

In this survey, we collect recent progress in the understanding of $L^{p}$ bounds for bilinear spherical averages and some associated maximal functions like the bilinear spherical maximal function and its lacunary counterpart. We describe…

Bourgain proved that the maximal operator associated to an analytic vector field is bounded on $L^2$. In the present paper, we give a geometric proof of Bourgain's result by using the tools developed by Lacey and Li.

We develop a notion of finite order lacunarity for direction sets in $\mathbb R^{d+1}$. Given a direction set $\Omega$ that is sublacunary according to this definition, we construct random examples of Euclidean sets that contain unit line…

We construct a compact set in $\mathbb R^2$ of measure 0 containing a piece of a parabola of every aperture between 1 and 2. As a consequence, we improve lower bounds for the $L^p$-$L^q$ norm of the corresponding maximal operator for a…
