Lacunary $\delta$-Discretised Spherical Maximal Operators

TL;DR

This paper proves the boundedness of lacunary $ ext{delta}$-discretised spherical maximal operators on $L^p$ spaces, including endpoint estimates, and extends results to multi-parameter variants, recovering classical bounds as $ ext{delta} o 0^+$.

Contribution

It establishes uniform $L^p$ bounds for lacunary $ ext{delta}$-discretised spherical maximal operators, including endpoint weak-type estimates, and extends these results to multi-parameter settings.

Findings

Boundedness on $L^p$ for all $1 < p < $

Endpoint weak-type estimate $H^1 o L^{1, }$

Uniform bounds in $ ext{delta}$, recovering classical results

Abstract

We study the lacunary analogue of the $\delta$-discretised spherical maximal operators introduced by Hickman and Jan\v{c}ar, for $\delta \in (0, 1/2)$, 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 $\delta$, and thus, by taking the limit $\delta \to 0^+$, our results recover the classical boundedness of the lacunary spherical maximal function.
