Weak and Strong type $ A_p$ Estimates for Calderón-Zygmund Operators

Abstract

For a Calderon-Zygmund operator T on d-dimensional space, that has a sufficiently smooth kernel, we prove that for any 1< p \le 2, and weight w in A_p, that the maximal truncations T_* of T map L^p(w) to weak-L^p(w), with norm bounded by the A_p characteristic of w to the first power. This result combined with the (deep) recent result of Perez-Treil-Volberg, shows that the strong-type of T on L^2(w) is bounded by A_2 characteristic of w to the first power. (It is well-known that L^2 is the critical case for the strong type estimate.) Both results are sharp, aside from the number of derivatives imposed on the kernel of the operator. The proof uses the full structure theory of Calderon-Zygmund Operators, reduction to testing conditions, and a Corona argument.

On the prime field spherical restriction conjecture in four dimensions: breaking the Stein-Tomas exponent and applications

Let $p$ be an odd prime. We prove the extension estimate $R_{S_j}^*(2\to r)\lesssim_r 1$ for every nonzero-radius sphere $S_j\subseteq\mathbb{F}_p^4$ and every $r\geq \, 34/11$, uniformly in $p$ and $j$. This improves the Stein--Tomas exponent $10/3$ established by Iosevich and Koh (2008). We also formulate a localized spherical restriction/extension conjecture that predicts the sharp dependence of the restriction norm on the size of the physical support. This conjecture implies the spherical extension estimates $R_{S_j}^*(2\to r)\lesssim_r 1$ for every $r>3$, and yields almost-every-pin distance estimates at the conjectured Erdős--Falconer exponent in four dimensions, up to an arbitrarily small power loss in the set-size hypothesis. Using the same method, we improve the bounds supplied by Fourier decay and Plancherel at intermediate support scales and derive new almost-every-pin distance estimates in $\mathbb{F}_p^4$.

Dimension-free estimates for discrete maximal functions over cubes in $\mathbb Z^d$

In this short note, we establish dimension-free $\ell^p(\mathbb Z^d)$ bounds, for all $p\in(1,\infty]$, for the discrete Hardy--Littlewood maximal functions associated with cubes in $\mathbb Z^d$, answering a question that had been open for a while. The key idea is to prove dimension-free bounds for the $\ell^p(\mathbb Z^d)$ norms of the differences of the corresponding averages. This follows from an ad hoc interpretation of the associated discrete multipliers as a special continuous family of multipliers to which basic fractional integration and complex interpolation can be applied. The same method also yields an elementary proof of Bourgain's dimension-free $L^p(\mathbb R^d)$ bounds for the Hardy--Littlewood maximal function associated with cubes in $\mathbb R^d$.

Establishing the Polynomial Wolff Axioms for $δ$-Separated $δ$-Tubes With #o-minimality

We establish the full version of a conjecture of Guth and Zahl, giving a lower bound for the volume of a semialgebraic set that has a large intersection with a collection of $δ$-separated $δ$-tubes. Our proof uses o-minimal methods to simplify the proof of Katz and Rogers, who proved the conjecture up to a small factor. We also establish that the constants depend polynomially on the complexity of the semialgebraic set, and more generally in the #o-minimal setting.
