We survey old and new conjectures and results on various types of spherical maximal functions, emphasizing problems with a fractal dilation set.

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…

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 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…

In this survey, we collect recent progress in the understanding of $L^{p}$ bounds for bilinear spherical averages and some associated maximal functions like the bilinear spherical maximal function and its lacunary counterpart. We describe…

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…

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…

In this paper we prove an analogue of the discrete spherical maximal theorem of Magyar, Stein, and Wainger, an analogue which concerns maximal functions associated to homogenous algebraic surfaces. Let $\mathfrak{p}$ be a homogenous…

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…

We provide a new direct proof of the $\ell^2$-boundedness of the Discrete Spherical Maximal Function that neither relies on abstract transference theorems (and hence Stein's Spherical Maximal Function Theorem) nor on delicate asymptotics…

In this article, we study discrete maximal function associated with the Birch-Magyar averages over sparse sequences. We establish sparse domination principle for such operators. As a consequence, we obtain $\ell^p$-estimates for such…

We obtain $L^p-$estimates for the full and lacunary maximal functions associated to the twisted bilinear spherical averages given by \[\mathfrak{A}_t(f_1,f_2)(x,y)=\int_{\mathbb S^{2d-1}}f_1(x+tz_1,y)f_2(x,y+tz_2)\;d\sigma(z_1,z_2),\;t>0,\]…

We obtain boundedness for the bilinear spherical maximal function in a range of exponents that includes the Banach triangle and a range of $L^p$ with $p<1$. We also obtain counterexamples that are asymptotically optimal with our positive…

This note presents an example of an increasing sequence $(\lambda_l)_{l=1}^\infty$ such that the maximal operators associated to normalized discrete spherical convolution averages \[ \sup_{l\geq…

In this paper, we investigate $L^p-$boundedness of the bilinear spherical maximal function associated with a general set $E\subset\R_+$. We quantify the range of $L^p-$boundedness in terms of a dilation-invariant notion of upper Minkowski…

We study the elliptic maximal functions defined by averages over ellipses and rotated ellipses which are multi-parametric variants of the circular maximal function. We prove that those maximal functions are bounded on $L^p$ for some $p\neq…

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 show that the discrete lacunary spherical maximal function is bounded on $l^p(\mathbb{Z}^d)$ for all $p >\frac{d+1}{d-1}$. Our range is new in dimension 4, where it appears that little was previously known for general lacunary radii. Our…

We use the Hardy spaces for Fourier integral operators to obtain bounds for spherical maximal functions in $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$, $n\geq2$, where the radii of the spheres are restricted to a compact interval in $(0,\infty)$. These bounds…
