We investigate the magnitude relation of the non-centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operators and centered one. By using a discretization technique, we prove two facts: the first one is that the space is ultrametric if and only if the two…

Let $\mathcal M$ be the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator or the dyadic maximal operator and $d\geq1$. We prove that for a set $E\subset\mathbb R^d$ of finite perimeter the bound $\operatorname{var}\mathcal M1_E\leq…

Let $(X,\mathcal{B}, \mu, T)$ be an ergodic dynamical system on a non-atomic finite measure space. Consider the maximal function $\dis R^*:(f, g) \in L^1\times L^1 \to R^*(f, g)(x) = \sup_{n} \frac{f(T^nx)g(T^{2n}x)}{n}.$ We show that there…

Let $\omega$ be a B\'ekoll\'e-Bonami weight. We give a complete characterization of the positive measures $\mu$ such that $$\int_{\mathcal H}|M_\omega f(z)|^qd\mu(z)\le C\left(\int_{\mathcal H}|f(z)|^p\omega(z)dV(z)\right)^{q/p}$$ and…

The aim of this work is to extend the recent work of the author on the discrete frequency function to the more delicate continuous frequency function $\mathcal{T}$, and further to investigate its relations to the Hardy-Littlewood maximal…

We extend the recent boundedness result of Kurka for Hardy-Littlewood maximal function to discrete setting.

It is shown that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function associated to the cube in $\mathbb R^n$ obeys dimensional free bounds in $L^p$ fir $p>1$. Earlier work only covered the range $p>\frac 32$.

We study the frequency function (introduced by Temur) in both the discrete and continuous settings. More precisely, we extend the definition of the frequency function to the higher-dimensional continuous setting and to the uncentered…

Let $A_tf(x)=\int f(x+ty)d\sigma(y)$ denote the spherical means in $\Bbb R^d$ ($d\sigma$ is surface measure on $S^{d-1}$, normalized to $1$). We prove sharp estimates for the maximal function $M_E f(x)=\sup_{t\in E}|A_tf(x)|$ where $E$ is a…

We obtain sharp bounds for the modulus of continuity of the uncentered maximal function in terms of the modulus of continuity of the given function, via integral formulas. Some of the results deduced from these formulas are the following:…

We precisely evaluate the operator norm of the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function on $L^p(\Bbb R^1)$. We also compute the operator norm of the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function over rectangles on $L^p(\Bbb R^n)$, and we…

Given a discrete function $f:\Z^d \to \R$ we consider the maximal operator $$Mf(\vec{n}) = \sup_{r\geq0} \frac{1}{N(r)} \sum_{\vec{m} \in \bar{\Omega}_r} \big|f(\vec{n} + \vec{m})\big|,$$ where $\big\{\bar{\Omega}_r\big\}_{r \geq 0}$ are…

In this paper we investigate some questions related to the continuity of maximal operators in $W^{1,1}$ and $BV$ spaces, complementing some well-known boundedness results. Letting $\widetilde M$ be the one-dimensional uncentered…

In this paper, we investigate the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function on non-commutative symmetric spaces. We complete the results of T. Bekjan and J. Shao. Moreover, we refine the main results of the papers \cite{Bek} and \cite{Sh}.

We prove that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is discontinuous on $\bmorn$ and maps $\vmorn$ to itself. A counterexample to boundedness of the strong and directional maximal operators on $\bmorn$ is given, and properties of slices of…

We introduce and study the median maximal function \mathcal{M} f, defined in the same manner as the classical Hardy-Littlewood maximal function, only replacing integral averages of f by medians throughout the definition. This change has a…

Let $M_G$ denotes the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function associated to the Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance or to the pseudo-distance associated to the fundamental solution of the Grushin operator on $\R_x^n \times \R_u$, $\Delta_G =…

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…

In 1909, Hardy gave an example of a transcendental entire function, $f$, with the property that the set of points where $f$ achieves its maximum modulus, $\mathcal{M}(f)$, has infinitely many discontinuities. This is one of only two known…

In this paper we address the $W^{1,1}$-continuity of several maximal operators at the gradient level. A key idea in our global strategy is the decomposition of a maximal operator, with the absence of strict local maxima in the disconnecting…
