The main aim of this paper is to prove that the maximal operator $\overset{% \sim }{\sigma }^{*}f:=\underset{n\in P}{\sup }\frac{\left| \sigma_{n}f\right| }{\log ^{2}\left( n+1\right) }$ is bounded from the Hardy space $H_{1/2}$ to the…

We prove that the Hardy--Littlewood maximal operator $M$ is bounded on the variable Lebesgue space $L^{p(\cdot)}(X,d,\mu)$, with $1<p_-\le p_+<\infty$, over an unbounded space of homogeneous type $(X,d,\mu)$ with a Borel-semiregular measure…

Given a family G of rectangles, to which one associates a tree [G], one defines a natural number $\lambda$ [G] called its analytic split and satisfying, for all 1 < p < $\infty$ log($\lambda$ [G]) p MG p p where MG is the Hardy-Littlewood…

We establish new estimates on the Minkowski and Hausdorff dimensions of Besicovitch sets and obtain new bounds on the Kakeya maximal operator.

A (d,k) set is a subset of R^d containing a translate of every k-dimensional plane. Bourgain showed that for k \geq k_{cr}(d), where k_{cr}(d) solves 2^{k_{cr}-1}+k_{cr} = d, every (d,k) set has positive Lebesgue measure. We give a short…

We obtain several sharp lower and upper bounds for the Euclidean operator radius of a pair of bounded linear operators defined on a complex Hilbert space. As applications of these bounds we deduce a chain of new bounds for the classical…

Let $K$ be a standard H\"older continuous Calder\'on--Zygmund kernel on $\mathbb{R}^{\mathbf{d}}$ whose truncations define $L^2$ bounded operators. We show that the maximal operator obtained by modulating $K$ by polynomial phases of a fixed…

We prove three results concerning convolution operators and lacunary maximal functions associated to dilates of measures. First, we obtain an $H^1$ to $L^{1,\infty}$ bound for lacunary maximal operators under a dimensional assumption on the…

In this paper we derive the maximal subspace of natural numbers $\left\{n_{k}:k\geq 0\right\}$, such that the restricted maximal operator, defined by $\sup_{k\in \mathbb{N}}\left\vert \sigma_{n_{k}}F \right\vert$ on this subspace of Fej\'er…

We develop almost-orthogonality principles for maximal functions associated with averages over line segments and directional singular integrals. Using them, we obtain sharp $L^2$-bounds for these maximal functions when the underlying…

In this article we consider a modification of the Stein's spherical maximal operator of complex order $\alpha$ on ${\mathbb R^n}$: $$ {\mathfrak M}^\alpha_{[1,2]} f(x) =\sup\limits_{t\in [1,2]} \big| {1\over \Gamma(\alpha) } \int_{|y|\leq…

We derive sparse bounds for the bilinear spherical maximal function in any dimension $d\geq 1$. When $d\geq 2$, this immediately recovers the sharp $L^p\times L^q\to L^r$ bound of the operator and implies quantitative weighted norm…

We study Kakeya maximal operators associated with horizontal lines in finite Heisenberg groups $\mathbb H_n(\mathbb F_q)$. For the operator parameterized only by projective horizontal directions, we show that projection to $\mathbb…

It is shown that $SL_2$ Besicovitch sets of measure zero exist in $\mathbb{R}^3$. The proof is constructive and uses point-line duality analogously to Kahane's construction of measure zero Besicovitch sets in the plane. A corollary is that…

We study maximal operators associated to singular averages along finite subsets $\Sigma$ of the Grassmannian $\mathrm{Gr}(d,n)$ of $d$-dimensional subspaces of $\mathbb R^n$. The well studied $d=1$ case corresponds to the the directional…

In this paper, we introduce a criterion for maximal operators associated with Fourier multipliers to be bounded on $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)$. Noteworthy examples satisfying the criterion are multipliers of the Mikhlin type or limited decay which…

We investigate $L^p$ boundedness of the maximal function defined by the averaging operator $f\to \mathcal{A}_t^s f$ over the two-parameter family of tori $\mathbb{T}_t^{s}:=\{ ( (t+s\cos\theta)\cos\phi,\,(t+s\cos\theta)\sin\phi,\,…

Given a discrete function $f:\Z^d \to \R$ we consider the maximal operator $$Mf(\vec{n}) = \sup_{r\geq0} \frac{1}{N(r)} \sum_{\vec{m} \in \bar{\Omega}_r} \big|f(\vec{n} + \vec{m})\big|,$$ where $\big\{\bar{\Omega}_r\big\}_{r \geq 0}$ are…

We show that a certain conjectured optimal reverse Littlewood- Paley inequality would, if true, imply sharp results for the Kakeya maximal function, the Bochner-Riesz means and the Fourier restriction operator.

We prove $L^p$ bounds for the maximal operators associated to an Ahlfors-regular variant of fractal percolation. Our bounds improve upon those obtained by I. {\L}aba and M. Pramanik and in some cases are sharp up to the endpoint. A…
