We find the sharp range for boundedness of the discrete bilinear spherical maximal function for dimensions $d \geq 5$. That is, we show that this operator is bounded on $l^{p}(\mathbb{Z}^d)\times l^{q}(\mathbb{Z}^d) \to l^{r}(\mathbb{Z}^d)$…
We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\M$ associated to smooth hypersurfaces $S$ in 3-dimensional Euclidean space. For $p>2,$ we prove that if no affine tangent plane to $S$ passes through the origin and $S$ is analytic,…
In this note we show that the strong spherical maximal function in $\mathbb R^d$ is bounded on $L^p$ if $p>2(d+1)/(d-1)$ for $d\ge 3$.
We establish the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^3)$ boundedness of the helical maximal function for the sharp range $p>3$. Our results improve the previous known bounds for $p>4$. The key ingredient is a new microlocal smoothing estimate for averages…
In this paper, we study the spherical maximal operator $ M_E $ over $ E\subset [1,2]$, restricted to radial functions. In higher dimensions $ d\geq 3$, we establish a complete range of $ L^p-$improving estimates for $ M_E $. In two…

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…
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…
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 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,\,…
In this article, we address endpoint issues for the bilinear spherical maximal functions. We obtain borderline restricted weak type estimates for the well studied bilinear spherical maximal function…
Let ${\frak M}^\alpha$ be the spherical maximal operators of complex order $\alpha$ on ${\mathbb R^n}$. In this article we show that when $n\geq 2$, suppose \begin{eqnarray*} \|{\frak M}^{\alpha} f \|_{L^p({\mathbb R^n})} \leq C\|f…
Let $f\in L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)$, $d\ge 3$, and let $A_t f(x)$ the average of $f$ over the sphere with radius $t$ centered at $x$. For a subset $E$ of $[1,2]$ we prove close to sharp $L^p\to L^q$ estimates for the maximal function $\sup_{t\in…
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 <…
We prove $L^p\times L^q\rightarrow L^r$ bounds for certain lacunary bilinear maximal averaging operators with parameters satisfying the H\"older relation $1/p+1/q=1/r$. The boundedness region that we get contains at least the interior of…
We derive sparse bounds for the bilinear spherical maximal function in any dimension $d\geq 1$. When $d\geq 2$, this immediately recovers the sharp $L^p\times L^q\to L^r$ bound of the operator and implies quantitative weighted norm…
