Given a frequency $\lambda=(\lambda_n)$, we study when almost all vertical limits of a $\mathcal{H}_1$-Dirichlet series $\sum a_n e^{-\lambda_ns}$ are Riesz-summable almost everywhere on the imaginary axis. Equivalently, this means to…

We consider the averages of a function $ f$ on $ \mathbb R ^{n}$ over spheres of radius $ 0< r< \infty $ given by $ A_{r} f (x) = \int_{\mathbb S ^{n-1}} f (x-r y) \; d \sigma (y)$, where $ \sigma $ is the normalized rotation invariant…

Let $E \subset \mathbb R^d$, $d \ge 2$, be compact, and let $\phi(x,y)$ be a smooth function satisfying the Phong--Stein rotational curvature condition on $\{\phi(x,y)=1\}$. We prove that if $\dim_{\mathcal H}(E)>1$, then $$…

It is shown that that for every Darboux function $F$ there is a non-constant continuous function $f$ such that $F+f$ is still Darboux. It is shown to be consistent --- the model used is iterated Sacks forcing --- that for every Darboux…

In this paper we prove mixed inequalities for the maximal operator $M_\Phi$, for general Young functions $\Phi$ with certain additional properties, improving and generalizing some previous estimates for the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator…

In dimension one we give a maximal function characterisation of the Hardy space H^1(g) for the Gauss measure g, introduced by G. Mauceri and S. Meda. In arbitrary dimension, we give a description of the nonnegative functions in H^1(g) and…

Let $G\cong\mathbb{R}^{d} \ltimes \mathbb{R}$ be a finite-dimensional two-step nilpotent group with the group multiplication $(x,u)\cdot(y,v)\rightarrow(x+y,u+v+x^{T}Jy)$ where $J$ is a skew-symmetric matrix satisfying a degeneracy…

In this paper we address the following question: given $ p\in (1,\infty)$, $n \geq 1$, does there exists a constant $A(p,n)>1$ such that $\| M f\|_{L^{p}}\geq A(n,p) \| f\|_{L^{p}}$ for any nonnegative $f \in L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$, where…

We generalize a result by Alberti, showing that, if a first-order linear differential operator $\mathcal{A}$ belongs to a certain class, then any $L^1$ function is the absolutely continuous part of a measure $\mu$ satisfying…

One of the classical results concerning differentiability of continuous functions states that the set $\mathcal{SD}$ of somewhere differentiable functions (i.e., functions which are differentiable at some point) is Haar-null in the space…

Let Mf denote the strong maximal function of f on R^n, that is the maximal average of f with respect to n-dimensional rectangles with sides parallel to the coordinate axes. For any dimension n>1 we prove the natural endpoint Fefferman-Stein…

The primary objective of this paper is to establish the Ahlfors regularity of minimizers of set functions that satisfy a suitable maxitive condition on disjoint unions of sets. Our analysis focuses on minimizers within continua of the plane…

A classical theorem of Hutchinson asserts that if an iterated function system acts on $\mathbb{R}^d$ by similitudes and satisfies the open set condition then it admits a unique self-similar measure with Hausdorff dimension equal to the…

Let $(X,d,\mu)$ be a metric measure space. For $\emptyset\neq R\subseteq (0,\infty)$ consider the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator $$ M_R f(x) \stackrel{\mathrm{def}}{=} \sup_{r \in R} \frac{1}{\mu(B(x,r))} \int_{B(x,r)} |f| d\mu.$$ We…

For the spherical mean operators $\mathcal{A}_t$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\ge 2$, we consider the maximal functions $M_Ef =\sup_{t\in E} |\mathcal{A}_t f|$, with dilation sets $E\subset [1,2]$. In this paper we give a surprising…

We initiate the study of the $\ell^p(\mathbb{Z}^d)$-boundedness of the arithmetic spherical maximal function over sparse sequences. We state a folklore conjecture for lacunary sequences, a key example of Zienkiewicz and prove new bounds for…

We study absolute continuity of harmonic measure with respect to surface measure on domains $\Omega$ that have large complements. We show that if $\Gamma\subset \mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ is $d$-Ahlfors regular and splits $ \mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ into…

A known Hardy-Littlewood theorem asserts that if both the function and its conjugate are of bounded variation, then their Fourier series are absolutely convergent. It is proved in the paper that the same result holds true for functions on…

In this paper we study the $L^p$ boundedness of the centred and the uncentred Hardy--Littlewood maximal operators on the class $\Upsilon_{a,b}$, $2\leq a\leq b$, of trees with $(a,b)$-bounded geometry. We find the sharp range of $p$,…

Let $\mathcal{E}(X,d,\mu)$ be a Banach function space over a space of homogeneous type $(X,d,\mu)$. We show that if the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator $M$ is bounded on the space $\mathcal{E}(X,d,\mu)$, then its boundedness on the…
