This paper may be viewed as a companion paper to [G1]. In that paper, $L^2$ Sobolev estimates derived from a Newton polyhedron-based resolution of singularities method are combined with interpolation arguments to prove $L^p$ to $L^q_s$…

$L^p$ to $L^p_{\beta}$ boundedness theorems are proven for translation invariant averaging operators over hypersurfaces in Euclidean space. The operators can either be Radon transforms or averaging operators with multiparameter fractional…

In the paper [G1] the author proved $L^p$ Sobolev regularity results for averaging operators over hypersurfaces and connected them to associated Newton polyhedra. In this paper, we use rather different resolution of singularities techniques…

We prove $L^p$ boundedness results, $p > 2$, for local maximal averaging operators over a smooth 2D hypersurface $S$ with either a $C^1$ density function or a density function with a singularity that grows as $|(x,y)|^{-\beta}$ for $\beta <…

We prove $L^p({\mathbb R}^3)$ to $L^p_s({\mathbb R}^3)$ Sobolev improvement theorems for local averaging operators over real analytic surfaces in ${\mathbb R}^3$. For most such operators, in a sense made precise in the paper, the set of…

The purpose of this paper is to prove the L^p boundedness of singular Radon transforms and their maximal analogues. These operators differ from the traditional singular integrals and maximal functions in that their definition at any point x…

We characterize (up to endpoints) the $k$-tuples $(p_1,\ldots,p_k)$ for which certain $k$-linear generalized Radon transforms map $L^{p_1} \times \cdots \times L^{p_k}$ boundedly into $\mathbb R$. This generalizes a result of Tao and…

Using some resolution of singularities and oscillatory integral methods in conjunction with appropriate damping and interpolation techniques, L^p boundedness theorems for p > 2 are obtained for maximal operators over a wide range of…

Extending the methods developed in the author's previous paper and using adapted coordinate systems in two variables, an L^p boundedness theorem is proven for maximal operators over hypersurfaces in R^3 when p > 2. When the best possible p…

We prove a sharp $L^p$-Sobolev regularity results for a class of generalized Radon transforms for families of curves in a three dimensional manifold, with folding canonical relations. The proof relies on decoupling inequalities by Wolff and…

This paper establishes endpoint $L^p-L^q$ and Sobolev mapping properties of Radon-like operators which satisfy a homogeneity condition (similar to semiquasihomogeneity) and a condition on the rank of a matrix related to rotational…

This paper considers the problem of establishing $L^p$-improving inequalities for Radon-like operators in intermediate dimensions (i.e., for averages overs submanifolds which are neither curves nor hypersurfaces). Due to limitations in…

We prove several variations on the results of Ricci and Travaglini concerning bounds for convolution with all rotations of a measure supported by a fixed convex curve in the plane. Estimates are obtained for averages over higher-dimensional…

The purpose of this paper is to study the smoothing properties (in $L^p$ Sobolev spaces) of operators of the form $f\mapsto \psi(x) \int f(\gamma_t(x)) K(t)\: dt$, where $\gamma_t(x)$ is a $C^\infty$ function defined on a neighborhood of…

The Radon transform is a bounded operator from $L^p$ of Euclidean space to $L^q$ of the manifold of all affine hyperplanes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for certain exponents depending dimension. Extremizers have been determined for certain values of…

Convolution with an appropriate surface measure on a paraboloid in R^d defines a bounded operator T from L^p(R^d) to L^q(R^d) for certain exponents p,q. In this article it is proved that there exist functions which extremize the associated…

We study $L^p$-Sobolev improving for averaging operators $A_{\gamma}$ given by convolution with a compactly supported smooth density $\mu_{\gamma}$ on a non-degenerate curve. In particular, in 4 dimensions we show that $A_{\gamma}$ maps…

Let $L$ be a second order divergence form elliptic operator with complex bounded measurable coefficients. The operators arising in connection with $L$, such as the heat semigroup and Riesz transform, are not, in general, of…
