In this paper we deal with lacunary and full versions of the spherical maximal function on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$, for $n\ge 2$. By suitable adaptation of an approach developed by M. Lacey in the Euclidean case, we obtain…

We prove new $\ell ^{p} (\mathbb Z ^{d})$ bounds for discrete spherical averages in dimensions $ d \geq 5$. We focus on the case of lacunary radii, first for general lacunary radii, and then for certain kinds of highly composite choices of…

For any nonempty set $U\subset\R^+$, we consider the maximal operator $\h^U$ defined as $\h^Uf=\sup_{u\in U}|H^{(u)} f|$, where $H^{(u)}$ represents the Hilbert transform along the monomial curve $u\gamma(s)$. We focus on the…

Let $M^{(u)}$, $H^{(u)}$ be the maximal operator and Hilbert transform along the parabola $(t, ut^2) $. For $U\subset(0,\infty)$ we consider $L^p$ estimates for the maximal functions $\sup_{u\in U}|M^{(u)} f|$ and $\sup_{u\in U}|H^{(u)}…

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 $p>3$.

For a Schwartz function $f$ on the plane and a non-zero $v\in\ZR^2$ define the Hilbert transform of $f$ in the direction $v$ to be $$ H_vf(x)=\text{p.v.}\int_\ZR f(x-vy) \frac{dy}y $$ Let $\zeta$ be a Schwartz function with frequency…

Motivated by the geometric reduction of Cauchy--Szeg\H{o} projections on quadratic surfaces of higher codimension (Nagel--Ricci--Stein, 2001) and recent developments on the real-variable theory adapted to twisted multiparameter structures…

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…

In this article, we study the fractional spherical maximal function and its lacunary counterpart. We study the necessary and sufficient conditions for $L^p-L^q$ boundedness of both maximal functions. In particular, we prove the restricted…

For a function $f\in L^p(\Bbb R^d)$, $d\ge 2$, let $A_t f(x)$ be the mean of $f$ over the sphere of radius $t$ centered at $x$. Given a set $E\subset (0,\infty)$ of dilations we prove endpoint bounds for the maximal operator $M_E$ defined…
