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…

Abstract approaches to maximum and anti-maximum principles for differential operators typically rely on the condition that all vectors in the domain of the operator are dominated by the leading eigenfunction of the operator. We study the…

We show that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is bounded on a reflexive variable Lebesgue space $L^{p(\cdot)}$ over a space of homogeneous type $(X,d,\mu)$ if and only if it is bounded on its dual space $L^{p'(\cdot)}$, where…
