For any dimension $n \geq 2$, we consider the maximal directional Hilbert transform $\mathscr{H}_U$ on $\mathbb R^n$ associated with a direction set $U \subseteq \mathbb S^{n-1}$: \[ \mathscr{H}_Uf(x) := \frac{1}{\pi} \sup_{v \in U} \Bigl|…

We introduce a notion of (finite order) lacunarity in higher dimensions for which we can bound the associated directional maximal operators in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$, with $p>1$. In particular, we are able to treat the classes previously…

Let $D$ be a nonnegative integer and ${\mathbf{\Theta}}\subset S^1$ be a lacunary set of directions of order $D$. We show that the $L^p$ norms, $1<p<\infty$, of the maximal directional Hilbert transform in the plane $$ H_{{\mathbf{\Theta}}}…

Let $H_k$ be the one dimensional Hilbert transform computed in the direction $(1,2^k)$ in the plane. We show that the maximal operator $\sup_k |H_kf|$ maps $L^p$ of the plane into itself for $1<p<\infty$. The same result with the Hilbert…

We establish the sharp growth order, up to epsilon losses, of the $L^2$-norm of the maximal directional averaging operator along a finite subset $V$ of a polynomial variety of arbitrary dimension $m$, in terms of cardinality. This is an…

We study a two-dimensional discrete directional maximal operator along the set of the prime numbers. We show existence of a set of vectors, which are lattice points in a sufficiently large annulus, for which the $\ell^2$ norm of the…

In this paper we study maximal directional singular integral operators in $ \mathbb{R}^n $ given by a H\"ormander--Mihlin multiplier on an $ (n-1)$-dimensional subspace and acting trivially in the perpendicular direction. The subspace is…

We prove the boundedness of the maximal operator and Hilbert transform along certain variable parabolas in $L^p$ for $p>p_0$ with some $p_0\in (1, 2)$. Connections with the Hilbert transform along vector fields and the polynomial Carleson's…

Let $\Omega $ be any set of directions (unit vectors) on the plane. We study maximal operators defined by \md0 M_\Omega f(x)=\sup_{\delta >0, \omega \in \Omega} \frac{1}{2\delta}\int_{-\delta}^\delta |f(x+t\omega)|dt. \emd for the…

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…

We discuss the L^p-boundedness of maximal singular integrals in the plane over a finite set V of N directions. Logarithmic bounds are established for a set V of arbitrary structure in the 2<=p<infinity range. Sharp bounds are proved for…

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…

For a Schwartz function $f$ on the plane and a non-zero $v\in\ZR^2$ define the Hilbert transform of $f$ in the direction $v$ to be $$ H_vf(x)=\text{p.v.}\int_\ZR f(x-vy) \frac{dy}y $$ Let $\zeta$ be a Schwartz function with frequency…
