We develop a notion of finite order lacunarity for direction sets in $\mathbb R^{d+1}$. Given a direction set $\Omega$ that is sublacunary according to this definition, we construct random examples of Euclidean sets that contain unit line…

We completely characterize the boundedness of planar directional maximal operators on L^p. More precisely, if Omega is a set of directions, we show that M_Omega, the maximal operator associated to line segments in the directions Omega, is…

$K_\sigma$ sets involving sticky maps $\sigma$ have been used in the theory of differentiation of integrals to probabilistically construct Kakeya-type sets that imply certain types of directional maximal operators are unbounded on…

Given a family G of rectangles, to which one associates a tree [G], one defines a natural number $\lambda$ [G] called its analytic split and satisfying, for all 1 < p < $\infty$ log($\lambda$ [G]) p MG p p where MG is the Hardy-Littlewood…

We construct a union of N parallelograms of dimensions approximately 1/N x 1 in the plane, with the slope of their long sides in the standard Cantor set. The union has area 1/log N but the union of the doubles has area log log N/ log N. In…

We establish the sharp growth order, up to epsilon losses, of the $L^2$-norm of the maximal directional averaging operator along a finite subset $V$ of a polynomial variety of arbitrary dimension $m$, in terms of cardinality. This is an…

We prove that the Kakeya maximal conjecture is equivalent to the $\Omega$-Kakeya maximal conjecture. This completes a recent result in [2] where Keleti and Math{\'e} proved that the Kakeya conjecture is equivalent to the $\Omega$-Kakeya…

We introduce the notion of \textit{Perron capacity} of a set of slopes $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}$. Precisely, we prove that if the Perron capacity of $\Omega$ is finite then the directional maximal operator associated $M_\Omega$ is not…

Given a sequence of random variables $\left\{ X_k : k \geq 1\right\}$ uniformly distributed in $(0,1)$ and independent, we consider the following random sets of directions $$\Omega_{\text{rand},\text{lin}} := \left\{ \frac{\pi X_k}{k}: k…

Let $\Omega $ be any set of directions (unit vectors) on the plane. In this paper we study maximal operator of the one dimensional maximal function computed in the directions of $\Omega$ We are interested in extensions of lacunary sets of…

A (d,k) set is a subset of R^d containing a translate of every k-dimensional plane. Bourgain showed that for 2^{k-1}+k \geq d, every (d,k) set has positive Lebesgue measure. We give an L^p bound for the corresponding maximal operator.

We establish new estimates on the Minkowski and Hausdorff dimensions of Besicovitch sets and obtain new bounds on the Kakeya maximal operator.

Let $\Omega $ be any set of directions (unit vectors) on the plane. We study maximal operators defined by \md0 M_\Omega f(x)=\sup_{\delta >0, \omega \in \Omega} \frac{1}{2\delta}\int_{-\delta}^\delta |f(x+t\omega)|dt. \emd for the…

We shall verify the Kakeya (Nikodym) maximal operator $K_{N}$, $N\gg 1$, is bounded on the variable Lebesgue space $L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ when the exponent function $p(\cdot)$ is $N$-modified locally log-H\"{o}lder continuous and…

Given any finite direction set $\Omega$ of cardinality $N$ in Euclidean space, we consider the maximal directional Hilbert transform $H_{\Omega}$ associated to this direction set. Our main result provides an essentially sharp uniform bound,…

We introduce a notion of (finite order) lacunarity in higher dimensions for which we can bound the associated directional maximal operators in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$, with $p>1$. In particular, we are able to treat the classes previously…

We prove the validity of maximum principles for a class of fully nonlinear operators on unbounded subdomains $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^n$ of cylindrical type. The main structural assumption is the uniform ellipticity of the operator along…

We prove optimal bounds in L^2(R^2) for the maximal oper- ator obtained by taking a singular integral along N arbitrary directions in the plane. We also give a new proof for the optimal L^2 bound for the single scale Kakeya maximal…

A Kakeya set is a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ that contains a unit line segment pointing in every direction. The Kakeya conjecture asserts that such sets must have Hausdorff and Minkowski dimension $n$. There is a special class of…

We prove that the maximal operator obtained by taking averages at scale 1 along $N$ arbitrary directions on the sphere, is bounded in $L^2(\R^3)$ by $N^{1/4}{\log N}$. When the directions are $N^{-1/2}$ separated, we improve the bound to…
