In this article we consider a modification of the Stein's spherical maximal operator of complex order $\alpha$ on ${\mathbb R^n}$: $$ {\mathfrak M}^\alpha_{[1,2]} f(x) =\sup\limits_{t\in [1,2]} \big| {1\over \Gamma(\alpha) } \int_{|y|\leq…

On bounded domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d , d \geq 2$, reaching far beyond the scope of Lipschitz domains, we consider an elliptic system of order $2 m$ in divergence form with complex $\mathrm{L}^{\infty}$-coefficients complemented…
We prove that operators of the form $A=-a(x)^2\Delta^{2}$, with suitable growth conditions on the coefficient $a(x)$, generate analytic semigroups in $L^1(\mathbb{R}^N)$. In particular, we deduce generation results for the operator $A :=-…

Second order divergence form operators are studied on an open set with various boundary conditions. It is shown that the p-ellipticity condition of Carbonaro-Dragicevic and Dindos-Pipher implies extrapolation to a holomorphic semigroup on…
We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\mathbb{M}$ associated to averages along families of finite type curves in the plane, defined by $$\mathbb{M}f(x) \, := \, \sup_{1 \leq t \leq 2} \left|\int_{\mathbb{C}} f(x-ty) \,…

In this paper, we present counterexamples to maximal $L^p$-regularity for a parabolic PDE. The example is a second-order operator in divergence form with space and time-dependent coefficients. It is well-known from Lions' theory that such…
