We prove the continuity of the map $f \mapsto \widetilde{M}f$ from $BV(\mathbb{R})$ to itself, where $\widetilde{M}$ is the uncentered Hardy--Littlewood maximal operator. This answers a question of Carneiro, Madrid and Pierce.

We prove the continuity of the map $f \mapsto (Mf)'$ from $W^{1,1}(\mathbb{R})$ to $L^1(\mathbb{R})$, where $M$ is the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator. This solves a question posed by Carneiro, Madrid and Pierce.

We establish continuity mapping properties of the non-centered fractional maximal operator $M_{\beta}$ in the endpoint input space $W^{1,1}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ for $d \geq 2$ in the cases for which its boundedness is known. More precisely, we…

We study the Sobolev regularity on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^d$ of the uncentered fractional Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator $\widetilde{\mathcal{M}}_{\beta}$ at the endpoint $p=1$, when acting on polar data. We first prove that if…

We establish that the map $f\mapsto |\nabla \mathcal{M}_{\alpha}f|$ is continuous from $W^{1,1}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ to $L^{q}(\mathbb{R}^d)$, where $\alpha\in (0,d)$, $q=\frac{d}{d-\alpha}$ and $\mathcal{M}_{\alpha}$ denotes either the centered…

We study the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator in the Musielak-Orlicz-Sobolev space $W^{1,\varphi}(\mathbb{R}^n)$. Under some natural assumptions on $\varphi$ we show that the maximal function is bounded and continuous in…

In this paper we address the $W^{1,1}$-continuity of several maximal operators at the gradient level. A key idea in our global strategy is the decomposition of a maximal operator, with the absence of strict local maxima in the disconnecting…

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 study the regularity of the bilinear maximal operator when applied to Sobolev functions, proving that it maps $W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}) \times W^{1,q}(\mathbb{R}) \to W^{1,r}(\mathbb{R})$ with $1 <p,q < \infty$ and $r\geq 1$, boundedly and…

We characterize the space $BV(I)$ of functions of bounded variation on an arbitrary interval $I\subset \mathbb{R}$, in terms of a uniform boundedness condition satisfied by the local uncentered maximal operator $M_R$ from $BV(I)$ into the…

We give a survey, known and new results on the beingness of fixed points of the maximal operator in the more general settings of metric measure space. In particular, we prove that the fixed points of the uncentered one must be the constant…

In this note, we give a new characterisation of Sobolev $W^{1,1}$ functions among $BV$ functions via Hardy-Littlewood maximal function. Exploiting some ideas coming from the proof of this result, we are also able to give a new…

Let $0<\alpha<d$ and $1\leq p<d/\alpha$. We present a proof that for all $f\in W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ both the centered and the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood fractional maximal operator $\mathcal M_\alpha f$ are weakly differentiable and $…

In this paper we study a question related to the continuity of maximal operators of convolution type acting on $W^{1,1}(\mathbb{R})$. We prove that the map $u\mapsto (u^{*})'$ is continuous from $W^{1,1}(\mathbb{R})$ to $L^{1}(\mathbb{R})$,…

We explore the boundedness of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator $M$ on variable exponent spaces. Our findings demonstrate that the Muckenhoupt condition, in conjunction with Nekvinda's decay condition, implies the boundedness of $M$…

We prove that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is discontinuous on $\bmorn$ and maps $\vmorn$ to itself. A counterexample to boundedness of the strong and directional maximal operators on $\bmorn$ is given, and properties of slices of…

In this paper we present a proof of sharp boundedness of the discrete 1-dimensional Hardy-Littlewood nontangential maximal operator, when the parameter is in the range $[\frac{1}{3},+\infty)$. This generalizes a theorem by Bober, Carneiro,…

We show that a function $ f $ of bounded variation satisfies $$ \Var Mf \leq C \Var f $$ where $ Mf $ is the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function of $ f $. Consequently, the operator $ f \mapsto (Mf)' $ is bounded from $ W^{1,1}(R) $…
