We consider the $L^p \rightarrow L^p$ boundedness of a Nikodym maximal function associated to a one-parameter family of tubes in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ whose directions are determined by a non-degenerate curve $\gamma$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$. These…

We study spherical analogues of Nikodym sets and related maximal functions. In particular, we prove sharp $L^p$-estimates for Nikodym maximal functions associated with spheres. As a corollary, any Nikodym set for spheres must have full…

We prove sharp $L^p$ estimates for the Steklov eigenfunctions on compact manifolds with boundary in terms of their $L^2$ norms on the boundary. We prove it by establishing $L^p$ bounds for the harmonic extension operators as well as the…

We prove $L^p$ boundedness results, $p > 2$, for local maximal averaging operators over a smooth 2D hypersurface $S$ with either a $C^1$ density function or a density function with a singularity that grows as $|(x,y)|^{-\beta}$ for $\beta <…

It is well-known that Littlewood-Paley operators formed with respect to lacunary sets of finite order are bounded on $L^p (\mathbb{R})$ for all $1<p<\infty$. In this note it is shown that $$ \| S_{\mathcal{I}_{E_2}} \|_{L^p (\mathbb{R})…

In this paper, we study the $L^{p}$-improving property for the maximal operators along a large class of curves of finite type in the plane with dilation set $E \subset [1,2]$. The $L^{p}$-improving region depends on the order of finite type…

Let $M$ be the maximal operator associated to a smooth curve in $\mathbb R^3$ which has nonvanishing curvature and torsion. We prove that $M$ is bounded on $L^p$ if and only if $p>3$.

Extending the methods developed in the author's previous paper and using adapted coordinate systems in two variables, an L^p boundedness theorem is proven for maximal operators over hypersurfaces in R^3 when p > 2. When the best possible p…

We provide lower $L^q$ and weak $L^p$-bounds for the localized dyadic maximal operator on $R^n$, when the local $L^1$ and the local $L^p$ norm of the function are given. We actually do that in the more general context of homo- geneous…

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,\,…

We prove uniform $L^p$ estimates for resolvents of higher order elliptic self-adjoint differential operators on compact manifolds without boundary, generalizing a corresponding resul of [3] in the case of Laplace-- Beltrami operators on…

We consider a type of maximal operators associated to moment curves in $\mathbb R^d, d\geq 3.$ We derive $L^p$ mapping properties for these operators. In a special case, the estimate is sharp.

We investigate the Hilbert transform and the maximal operator along a class of variable non-flat polynomial curves $(P(t),u(x)t)$ with measurable $u(x)$, and prove uniform $L^p$ estimates for $1<p<\infty$. In particular, via the change of…

We prove sharp smoothing properties of the averaging operator defined by convolution with a measure on a smooth nondegenerate curve $\gamma$ in $\mathbb R^d$, $d\ge 3$. Despite the simple geometric structure of such curves, the sharp…

We prove local bounds on the amplitude of eigen- functions of complex constant-coefficient elliptic operators with a smooth potential on an arbitrary open subset of \R^d by estimating it in terms of the number of solutions of a diophantine…

We prove that for a finite type curve in $\mathbb R^3$ the maximal operator generated by dilations is bounded on $L^p$ for sufficiently large $p$. We also show the endpoint $L^p \to L^{p}_{1/p}$ regularity result for the averaging operators…

We prove sharp local smoothing estimates for curve averages in all dimensions. As a corollary, we prove the sharp $L^p$ boundedness of the helical maximal operator in $\mathbb{R}^4$, which was previously known only for $\mathbb{R}^2$ and…

It is proved that the local smoothing conjecture for wave equations implies certain improvements on Stein's analytic family of maximal spherical means. Some related problems are also discussed.

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) \,…

We consider non-local elliptic operators with kernel $K(y)=a(y)/|y|^{d+\sigma}$, where $0 < \sigma < 2$ is a constant and $a$ is a bounded measurable function. By using a purely analytic method, we prove the continuity of the non-local…
