Let ${{\bf R}_{\mathbb{S}^{d-1}}}(p\to q)$ denote the best constant for the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)\to L^q(\mathbb{S}^{d-1})$ Fourier restriction inequality to the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$, and let ${\bf R}_{\mathbb{S}^{d-1}} (p\to…

In this paper we study sharp pointwise inequalities for maximal operators. In particular, we strengthen DeVore's inequality for the moduli of smoothness and a logarithmic variant of Bennett--DeVore--Sharpley's inequality for rearrangements.…

We prove sparse bounds for the spherical maximal operator of Magyar, Stein and Wainger. The bounds are conjecturally sharp, and contain an endpoint estimate. The new method of proof is inspired by ones by Bourgain and Ionescu, is very…

We study regularity of the centered Hardy--Littlewood maximal function $M f$ of a function $f$ of bounded variation in $\mathbb R^d$, $d\in \mathbb N$. In particular, we show that at $|D^c f|$-a.e. point $x$ where $f$ has a non-concave…

The main aim of this paper is to prove that the maximal operator $\overset{% \sim }{\sigma }^{*}f:=\underset{n\in P}{\sup }\frac{\left| \sigma_{n}f\right| }{\log ^{2}\left( n+1\right) }$ is bounded from the Hardy space $H_{1/2}$ to the…

For any bounded, regulated function $m: [0,\infty) \to \mathbb{C}$, consider the family of operators $\{ T_R \}$ on the sphere $S^d$ such that $T_R f = m(k/R) f$ for any spherical harmonic $f$ of degree $k$. We completely characterize the…

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 obtain sharp bounds for the modulus of continuity of the uncentered maximal function in terms of the modulus of continuity of the given function, via integral formulas. Some of the results deduced from these formulas are the following:…

We improve the range of $\ell^p(\mathbb Z^d)$-boundedness of the integral $k$-spherical maximal functions introduced by Magyar. The previously best known bounds for the full $k$-spherical maximal function require the dimension $d$ to grow…

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…

Our aim in this article is to study the weighted boundedness of the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator in Harmonic $NA$ groups. Following Ombrosi et al. \cite{ORR}, we define a suitable notion of $A_p$ weights, and for such weights,…

The properties of the maximal operator of the $(C,\alpha)$-means ($\alpha=(\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_d)$) of the multi-dimensional Walsh-Kaczmarz-Fourier series are discussed, where the set of indices is inside a cone-like set. We prove that…

In this paper, we study the $\ell^p\to \ell^r$ estimates for the $S$-operator arising in restriction problems for spheres over finite fields. We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for the boundedness of the $S$-operator.…

Consider $\mathbb R^d\times \mathbb R^m$ with the group structure of a two-step nilpotent Lie group and natural parabolic dilations. The maximal function originally introduced by Nevo and Thangavelu in the setting of the Heisenberg group…

We prove that the lacunary spherical maximal operator, defined on the $n$-dimensional real hyperbolic space, is bounded on $L^p(\mathbb{H}^n)$ for all $n\ge2$ and $1<p\le\infty$. In particular, the lacunary set is significantly larger than…

We study discretized maximal operators associated to averaging over (neighborhoods of) squares in the plane and, more generally, $k$-skeletons in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Although these operators are known not to be bounded on any $L^p$, we obtain…

$T$ is a Ritt operator in $L^p$ if $\sup_n n\|T^n-T^{n+1}\|<\infty$. From \cite{LeMX-Vq}, if $T$ is a positive contraction and a Ritt operator in $L^p$, $1<p<\infty$, the square function $\left( \sum_n n^{2m+1} |T^n(I-T)^{m+1}f|^2…

We study maximal functions related to homogeneous polynomial hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. In a sense made precise in this paper, the region of $(p,q)$ for which we obtain $L^p\rightarrow L^q$ boundedness is optimal up to the endpoints…

Let $S_{\a,\psi}(f)$ be the square function defined by means of the cone in ${\mathbb R}^{n+1}_{+}$ of aperture $\a$, and a standard kernel $\psi$. Let $[w]_{A_p}$ denote the $A_p$ characteristic of the weight $w$. We show that for any…

We extend Stein's maximal theorem to the bilinear setting. Let $M$ be a homogeneous space with a transitive action of a compact abelian group, and let $1 \le p,q \le 2$ and $1/2 \le r \le 1$ satisfy $1/p + 1/q = 1/r$. For a family of…
