Capacities associated with scalar signed Riesz kernels, and analytic capacity

Abstract

The real and imaginari parts of the Cauchy kernel in the plane are scalar Riesz kernels of homogeneity -1. One can associate with each of them a natural notion of capacity related to bounded potentials. The main result of the paper asserts that these capacities are comparable to classical analytic capacity, thus stressing the real variables nature of analytic capacity. Higher dimensional versions of this result are also considered.

Lacunary $δ$-Discretised Spherical Maximal Operators

We study the lacunary analogue of the $δ$-discretised spherical maximal operators introduced by Hickman and Jančar, for $δ\in (0, 1/2)$, and establish the boundedness on $L^p$ for all $1 < p < \infty$, along with the endpoint weak-type estimate $H^1 \to L^{1,\infty}$. We also prove the corresponding $L^p$ boundedness for the multi-parameter variant. The constants in these bounds are uniform in $δ$, and thus, by taking the limit $δ\to 0^+$, our results recover the classical boundedness of the lacunary spherical maximal function.

Intersections and Minkowski Sums of Four-Corner Cantor Dusts with the Unit Circle

For $0<λ<1/2$, let $K_λ$ be the attractor of the iterated function system $\{λx, λx+1-λ\}$, and put $C_λ=K_λ\times K_λ$. We study the intersection \[ E_λ=C_λ\cap S^1 \] and the Minkowski sum \[ A_λ=C_λ+S^1, \] where $S^1$ is the unit circle. For the intersection problem, we prove that $E_λ$ has the cardinality of the continuum for $(\sqrt{3}-1)/2<λ<1/2$, and $\dim_{\rm H} E_λ>0$ for $\sqrt{2}-1<λ<1/2$. We also establish quantitative lower bounds for $\dim_{\rm H} E_λ$ for $λ$ near $1/2$; in particular, $\dim_{\rm H} E_λ$ approaches $1$ as $λ\uparrow1/2$. For the Minkowski sum problem, we prove that $A_λ$ has nonempty interior throughout the previously open range $1/4<λ<1/3$, answering a question of Simon and Taylor. Together with earlier results of Simon and Taylor, our theorem yields the complete classification: $A_λ$ has nonempty interior in $\mathbb{R}^2$ if and only if $1/4<λ<1/2$. More generally, we prove that $C_λ+Γ$ has nonempty interior for every regular $C^1$ closed curve $Γ$ whenever $1/4<λ<1/2$.

Non-radial Dunkl multipliers at the $L^2$-Sobolev threshold

We prove a Hörmander multiplier theorem for the Dunkl transform associated with an arbitrary finite reflection group. Uniform $H^σ(\mathbb{R}^N)$ bounds for the normalised dyadic pieces of a measurable symbol, with $σ>\mathbf N/2$ and $\mathbf N$ the homogeneous dimension, imply $L^p(dω)$ boundedness for $1<p<\infty$ and weak type $(1,1)$. No radiality or reflection-group invariance is assumed, and the dyadic pieces may meet the reflecting hyperplanes. The main new estimate controls the Dunkl kernel $E_κ(iξ,x)$ and its first Euclidean derivatives in $x$, uniformly near arbitrary intersections of reflecting hyperplanes. Here $ξ$ lies in a fixed compact annulus. Writing $w_κ$ for the Dunkl weight and $Ω_κ$ for its inhomogeneous counterpart, it gives the bound $CΩ_κ(x)^{-1/2}w_κ(ξ)^{-1/2}$. The proof decomposes each root contribution into Hermitian two-dimensional blocks, applies oscillatory changes of variables near the rootwise transition points, and uses a commutator identity to cancel the non-integrable phase derivative. Chamber lifting also yields endpoint bounds for the pullbacks of the componentwise Coifman--Weiss atomic $H^1$ space and the corresponding BMO space on a fixed chamber.
