The first part of the paper is a survey of some of the results previously obtained by the authors concerning the $L^p$-dissipativity of scalar and matrix partial differential operators. In the second part we give new necessary and,…

We introduce a notion of (finite order) lacunarity in higher dimensions for which we can bound the associated directional maximal operators in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$, with $p>1$. In particular, we are able to treat the classes previously…

We consider the Laplacian with drift in $\mathbb R^n$ defined by $\Delta_\nu = \sum_{i=1}^n(\frac{\partial^2}{\partial x_i^2} + 2 \nu_i\frac{\partial }{\partial{x_i}})$ where $\nu=(\nu_1,\ldots,\nu_n)\in \mathbb R^n\setminus\{0\}$. The…

In recent articles it was proved that when $\mu$ is a finite, radial measure in $\real^n$ with a bounded, radially decreasing density, the $L^p(\mu)$ norm of the associated maximal operator $M_\mu$ grows to infinity with the dimension for a…

For a Radon measure $\mu$ on $\bbR,$ we show that $L^{\infty}(\mu)$ is invariant under the group of translation operators $T_t(f)(x) = {$f(x-t)$}\ (t \in \bbR)$ if and only if $\mu$ is equivalent to Lebesgue measure $m$. We also give…

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…

We give complete algebraic characterizations of the $L^{p}$-dissipativity of the Dirichlet problem for some systems of partial differential operators of the form $\partial_{h}({\mathscr A}^{hk}(x)\partial_{k})$, were ${\mathscr A}^{hk}(x)$…

For a second order differential operator $A(\msx) =-\nabla a(\msx)\nabla + b'(\msx)\nabla+ \nabla \big(\msb''(\msx) \cdot\big)$ on a bounded domain $D$ with the Dirichlet boundary conditions on $\partial D$ there exists the inverse…

We show that the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operators associated with the Radon measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ have the uniform lower $L^p$-bounds (independent of $\mu$) that are strictly greater than $1$, if $\mu$ satisfies a…

We show that every operator on $L^{p}$, $1<p<\infty$ defined by multiplication by the identity function on $\mathbb{C}$ is a compact perturbation of an operator that is diagonal with respect to an unconditional basis. We also classify these…

Related to a semigroup of operators on a metric measure space, we define and study pseudodifferential operators (including the setting of Riemannian manifold, fractals, graphs ...). Boundedness on $L^p$ for pseudodifferential operators of…

Various notions of dissipativity type for partial differential operators and their applications are surveyed. We deal with functional dissipativity and its particular case $L^p$-dissipativity. Most of the results are due to the authors.

Given a differential operator defined in terms of left-invariant vector fields on a Lie group, we prove that the local condition defining maximal hypoellipticity is equivalent to a global estimate if the operator is left invariant. As a…

We prove $\ell^p\big(\mathbb Z^d\big)$ bounds for $p\in(1, \infty)$, of $r$-variations $r\in(2, \infty)$, for discrete averaging operators and truncated singular integrals of Radon type. We shall present a new powerful method which allows…

Let $\mu$ be a finite Radon measure on an open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, singular with respect to the Lebesgue measure. We prove Lusin-type solvability results for the prescribed divergence equation and the prescribed Jacobian…

We establish Dahlberg's perturbation theorem for non-divergence form operators L = A\nabla^2. If L_0 and L_1 are two operators on a Lipschitz domain such that the L^p Dirichlet problem for the operator L_0 is solvable for some p in…

We establish the $L^p$-$L^q$-boundedness of subelliptic pseudo-differential operators on a compact Lie group $G$. Effectively, we deal with the $L^p$-$L^q$-bounds for operators in the sub-Riemmanian setting because the subelliptic classes…

In this paper, we continue the study of a class of second order elliptic operators of the form $\mathcal L=\mbox{div}(A\nabla\cdot)$ in a domain above a Lipschitz graph in $\mathbb R^n,$ where the coefficients of the matrix $A$ satisfy a…

We construct mollification operators in strongly Lipschitz domains that do not invoke non-trivial extensions, are $L^p$ stable for any real number $p\in[1,\infty]$, and commute with the differential operators $\nabla$, $\nabla{\times}$, and…

We study symmetric diffusion operators on metric measure spaces. Our main question is whether or not the restriction of the operator to a suitable core continues to be essentially self-adjoint or $L^p$-unique if a small closed set is…
