For any semifinite von Neumann algebra ${\mathcal M}$ and any $1\leq p<\infty$, we introduce a natutal $S^1$-valued noncommutative $L^p$-space $L^p({\mathcal M};S^1)$. We say that a bounded map $T\colon L^p({\mathcal M})\to L^p({\mathcal…

Let $1\leq p<\infty$ and let $T\colon L^p({\mathcal M})\to L^p({\mathcal N})$ be a bounded map between noncommutative $L^p$-spaces. If $T$ is bijective and separating (i.e., for any $x,y\in L^p({\mathcal M})$ such that $x^*y=xy^*=0$, we…

In this note, we answer a question raised by Johnson and Schechtman \cite{JS}, about the hypercontractive semigroup on $\{-1,1\}^{\NN}$. More generally, we prove the folllowing theorem. Let $1<p<2$. Let $(T(t))_{t>0}$ be a holomorphic…

We consider boundedness of a certain positive dyadic operator $$ T^\sigma \colon L^p(\sigma; \ \! \ell^2) \to L^p(\omega), $$ that arose during our attempts to develop a two-weight theory for the Hilbert transform in $L^p$. Boundedness of…

In the first part of the paper we prove that for $2 < p, r < \infty$ every operator $T: L_p \to \ell_r$ is narrow. This completes the list of sequence and function Lebesgue spaces $X$ with the property that every operator $T:L_p \to X$ is…

It is shown that if a Markov map $T$ on a noncommutative probability space $\mathcal{M}$ has a spectral gap on $L_2(\mathcal{M})$, then it also has one on $L_p(\mathcal{M})$ for $1<p<\infty$. For fixed $p$, the converse also holds if $T$ is…

We define norms on $L_p(\mathcal{M}) \otimes M_n$ where $\mathcal{M}$ is a von Neumann algebra and $M_n$ is the complex $n \times n$ matrices. We show that a linear map $T: L_p(\mathcal{M}) \to L_q(\mathcal{N})$ is decomposable if…

We prove some structure results for isometries between noncommutative Lp spaces associated to von Neumann algebras. We find that an isometry T: Lp(M_1) to Lp(M_2) (1 le p < infty, p not 2) can be canonically expressed in a certain simple…

We prove that the realization $A_p$ in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^N),\,1<p<\infty$, of the elliptic operator $A=(1+|x|^{\alpha})\Delta+b|x|^{\alpha-1}\frac{x}{|x|}\cdot \nabla-c|x|^{\beta}$ with domain $D(A_p) =\{ u \in W^{2,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)\, |\, Au…

We provide an alternative proof of a (local) T1 theorem for dual exponents in the non-homogeneous setting of upper doubling measures. This previously known theorem provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the L^p-boundedness of…

Let T : Lp --> Lp be a contraction, with p strictly between 1 and infinity, and assume that T is analytic, that is, there exists a constant K such that n\norm{T^n-T^{n-1}} < K for any positive integer n. Under the assumption that T is…

Let $X$ be a space of homogeneous type and let $L$ be a sectorial operator with bounded holomorphic functional calculus on $L^2(X)$. We assume that the semigroup $\{e^{-tL}\}_{t>0}$ satisfies Davies-Gaffney estimates. Associated to $L$ are…

We provide a complete picture of contractivity of trace preserving positive maps with respect to $p$-norms. We show that for $p>1$ contractivity holds in general if and only if the map is unital. When the domain is restricted to the…

A classification of weakly compact multiplication operators on L(L_p), $1<p<\infty$, is given. This answers a question raised by Saksman and Tylli in 1992. The classification involves the concept of $\ell_p$-strictly singular operators, and…

We introduce the notion of a regular mapping on a non-commutative $L_p$-space associated to a hyperfinite von Neumann algebra for $1\le p\le \infty$. This is a non-commutative generalization of the notion of regular or order bounded map on…

In this paper, we prove the existence of a bounded linear extension operator $T: L^{2,p}(E) \rightarrow L^{2,p}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ when $1<p<2$, where $E \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ is a certain discrete set with fractal structure. Our proof makes…

Let $\mu$ be a non-negative Radon measure on ${\mathbb R}^d$ which only satisfies the polynomial growth condition. Let ${\mathcal Y}$ be a Banach space and $H^1(\mu)$ the Hardy space of Tolsa. In this paper, the authors prove that a linear…

We prove that any weak* continuous semigroup $(T_t)_{t \geq 0}$ of factorizable Markov maps acting on a von Neumann algebra $M$ equipped with a normal faithful state can be dilated by a group of Markov $*$-automorphisms analogous to the…

Supplying the missing necessary conditions, we complete the characterisation of the $L^p\to L^q$ boundedness of commutators $[b,T]$ of pointwise multiplication and Calder\'on-Zygmund operators, for arbitrary pairs of $1<p,q<\infty$ and…

We introduce the centred and the uncentred triangular maximal operators $\mathcal T$ and $\mathcal U$, respectively, on any locally finite tree in which each vertex has at least three neighbours. We prove that both $\mathcal T$ and…
