We consider the problem of establishing nonlinear smoothing as a general feature of nonlinear dispersive equations, i.e. the improved regularity of the integral term in Duhamel's formula, with respect to the initial data and the…

We investigate $L^p$ boundedness of the maximal function defined by the averaging operator $f\to \mathcal{A}_t^s f$ over the two-parameter family of tori $\mathbb{T}_t^{s}:=\{ ( (t+s\cos\theta)\cos\phi,\,(t+s\cos\theta)\sin\phi,\,…

Given an elliptic diffusion operator $L$ defined on a compact and connected manifold (possibly with a convex boundary in a suitable sense) with an $L$-invariant measure $m$, we introduce the non-linear $p-$operator $L_p$, generalizing the…

In this work we study the smoothing effect of some variable coefficient operators of the form $D_t-A$, where $A$ is a Weyl-quantized pseudo-differential operator of order $m=2,3$. The class under consideration includes, among others,…

Traditional measures of smoothness often fail to provide accurate $L_p$-error estimates for approximation by sampling or interpolation operators, especially for functions with low smoothness. To address this issue, we introduce a modified…

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…

We prove smoothing properties and optimal Schauder type estimates for a class of nonautonomous evolution equations driven by time dependent Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operators in a separable Hilbert space. They arise as Kolmogorov equations of…

We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\M$ associated to smooth hypersurfaces $S$ in 3-dimensional Euclidean space. For $p>2,$ we prove that if no affine tangent plane to $S$ passes through the origin and $S$ is analytic,…

We revisit the classical problem of finding an approximately stationary point of the average of $n$ smooth and possibly nonconvex functions. The optimal complexity of stochastic first-order methods in terms of the number of gradient…

Given a hypersurface $S\subset \mathbb{R}^{2d}$, we study the bilinear averaging operator that averages a pair of functions over $S$, as well as more general bilinear multipliers of limited decay and various maximal analogs. Of particular…

We study the $L^p$ mapping properties of the strong spherical maximal function, which is a multiparameter generalisation of Stein's spherical maximal function. We show that this operator is bounded on $L^p$ for $p > 2$ in all dimensions $n…

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…

We study the possibility of a gradual improvement as time progresses of the regularity of solutions to evolution problems of parabolic type driven by L\'evy-type operators, not necessarily translation invariant. In the course of our…

For any nonempty set $U\subset\R^+$, we consider the maximal operator $\h^U$ defined as $\h^Uf=\sup_{u\in U}|H^{(u)} f|$, where $H^{(u)}$ represents the Hilbert transform along the monomial curve $u\gamma(s)$. We focus on the…

We introduce and analyze an algorithm for the minimization of convex functions that are the sum of differentiable terms and proximable terms composed with linear operators. The method builds upon the recently developed smoothed gap…

We give a new proof of the sharp one weight $L^p$ inequality for any operator $T$ that can be approximated by Haar shift operators such as the Hilbert transform, any Riesz transform, the Beurling-Ahlfors operator. Our proof avoids the…

We are interested in the ``smoothest'' averaging that can be achieved by convolving functions $f \in \ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ with an averaging function $u$. More precisely, suppose $u:\{-n, \ldots, n\} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a symmetric function…

We prove that maximal operators of convolution type associated to smooth kernels are bounded in the homogeneous Hardy-Sobolev spaces $\dot{H}^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ when $1/p < 1+1/d$. This range of exponents is sharp. As a by-product of the…

We prove the sharp regularizing estimates for the gain term of the Boltzmann collision operator including hard sphere, hard potential and Maxwell molecule models. Our new estimates characterize both regularization and convolution properties…
