Abstract
In this article, the boundedness of the generalized parametric Marcinkiewicz integral operators is considered. Under the condition that is a function in with , appropriate estimates of the aforementioned operators from Triebel–Lizorkin spaces to spaces are obtained. By these estimates and an extrapolation argument, we establish the boundedness of such operators when the kernel function belongs to the block space or in the space . Our results represent improvements and extensions of some known results in generalized parametric Marcinkiewicz integrals.
1. Introduction
Throughout this work, we assume that () is the n-dimensional Euclidean space and for . In addition, we assume that is the unit sphere in , which is equipped with the normalized Lebesgue surface measure .
For with ), let be the kernel on defined by
where h is a measurable function on and is a homogeneous function of degree zero on with and
For a suitable function , we consider the generalized parametric Marcinkiewicz integral operator given by
where and .
If , , , and , then the operator , denoted by , reduces to the classical Marcinkiewicz integral operator. The operator was introduced by Stein in [1] in which Stein established the boundedness of provided that with . This result was discussed and improved by many mathematicians. For example, the authors of [2] proved that, if , then the boundedness of is satisfied for all . Later on, Al-Qassem and Al-Salman found in [3] that is bounded on for whenever with . Moreover, they proved that the condition is optimal in the sense that the operator may lose the boundedness when belongs to the space for some . Walsh in [4] obtained that is bounded on if . Furthermore, he established the optimality of the condition in the sense that the exponent in cannot be replaced by any smaller number.
Hörmander in [5] started studying the parametric Marcinkiewicz integral operator . In fact, he proved the boundedness of provided that and with . Subsequently, the investigation of the boundedness of the parametric Marcinkiewicz integrals under very various conditions on , , and h has attracted the attention of many authors. For a sampling of studies of such operators, the readers are referred to [6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14] and the references therein.
Although some open problems related to the boundedness of the operators remain open, the investigation to determine the boundedness of the generalized parametric Marcinkiewicz integrals has been started. Historically, the operator was introduced by Chen, Fan and Ying in [15]; they showed that, if , for some and , then
holds for all . However, Le in [16] improved this result. As a matter of fact, he found that the last result is still true for all under the conditions that , and , where is the collection of all measurable functions satisfying
For the significance and recent advances on the study of such operators, readers may consult [14,17,18,19,20].
For , we let denote the set of all measurable functions that satisfy the condition
In addition, we let denote the set of all measurable functions that satisfy the condition
where with for and .
It is obvious that for any , ; and also for all , .
For , let denote the space of all measurable functions on that satisfy
It is worth mentioning that (for and ) is denoted for the special class of the block spaces, which was introduced by Jiang and Lu in [21].
Let us recall the definition of the Triebel–Lizorkin spaces. For and with , the homogeneous Triebel–Lizorkin space is defined by

- (d)
- .
The following properties of the Triebel–Lizorkin space are well known:
- (i)
- is dense in ;
- (ii)
- for , and BMO;
- (iii)
- if ;
- (iv)
- .
In this work, we let () to be the class of all smooth functions satisfying the following growth conditions:
for , where the positive constants , , , and are independent of the variable t.
It is worth mentioning that, when , the class is empty. Some model examples for the class are with and with .
Here, and henceforth, we let denote the conjugate index of p defined by .
Our main results are formulated as follows:
Theorem 1.
Let for some satisfy the condition (1), and for some . Suppose that for some . Then, for any , there exists a positive constant (independent of Ω, ϕ, h, r, s, and q) such that
for ; and
for .
Theorem 2.
Assume that ϕ and Ω are given as in Theorem 1. Suppose that for some . Then, there is a constant such that
for with and ; and
for with and .
By the conclusions in Theorems 1 and 2 and the extrapolation arguments used in [18,22,23], we get the following results.
Theorem 3.
Assume that for some and Ω satisfies (1).
If for some and , then
for ;
If for some and , then
for ;
If and , then
for ;
If and , then
for , where is a bounded positive constant independent of h, and ϕ.
Theorem 4.
Let satisfy the condition (1), for some and for some .
If for some , then
for with and ; and for with and .
If , then
for with and ; and for with and .
We point out that our results generalize what Al-Qassem found in [18]; and also extend and improve ([24] Theorems 1 and 2). Precisely, the results in [18] are acheived when we take in our results. However, when we take , we directly obtain the results in [24].
2. Preparation
In this section, we establish some lemmas used in the proof of our results. Let us start this section by introducing some notations. Let . For a suitable mapping , and a measurable function ; the family of measures and the corresponding maximal operators and on are defined by
and
where is defined in the same way as , but with replacing by and h by . We write and for the total variation of
We shall need the following lemma which can be derived by applying the same arguments (with only minor modifications) used in the proof of ([24], Lemma 4).
Lemma 1.
Let , for some and for some . Suppose that for some . Then, there exist constants C and a with such that, for all ,
where the constant C is independent of ζ, k and ϕ.
By using ([9], Lemma 2.4) and following the same approaches employed in ([8], Lemmas 2.4 and 2.5), we immediately get the following lemma.
Lemma 2.
Let , for some , for some , and for some . Then, there is a constant such that
for all with ; and
for all with .
By applying the same procedures (with only minor modifications) as those in [18], we obtain the following:
Lemma 3.
Let , for some and for some . Let for some and be a real number. Then, there is a positive constant such that the inequalities
and
hold for arbitrary functions on .
Proof.
Let us first prove the inequality (12). On one hand, if , then Hölder’s inequality and (9) lead us to
Hence, (12) is true for the case . On the other hand, if , then, by duality, there exists a non-negative function with such that
By Hölder’s inequality, we obtain
Thus, by a change of variable, Hölder’s inequality and (9), we reach that
where . Therefore, (12) is satisfied.
Now, consider the case which gives . Again, by the duality, there exist functions defined on with such that
Let be given by
As , we conclude that there is a function such that
Hence, by Hölder’s inequality and (16), we obtain that
for all . Therefore, the proof of Lemma 3 is complete. □
In the same manner, we obtain the following:
Lemma 4.
Let for some ; and let Ω, θ, ϕ, and r be given as in Lemma 3. Then, a positive constant exists such that
(i) If , we have
(ii) If , we have
where are arbitrary functions on .
Proof.
Let us first consider the case with . As above, by the duality, there are functions defined on with such that
where
As , then, by Hölder’s inequality, we have that
Again, since , we deduce that there is a function such that
Hence, by a simple change of variables, Hölder’s inequality, ([9], Lemma 2.5) and (21), we get that
Therefore, by (20) and the last inequality, we reach (18) for any with . Now, we consider the case with . Thanks to (11), we get that
for all and . This implies
Here, we follow the same above procedure; by Hölder’s inequality, we get
By duality, there is a function with such that
where . Thus, when we define the linear operator H on any function by , then, by interpolation (23) and (24), we directly obtain that
for all and . This ends the proof of Lemma 4. □
3. Proof of the Main Results
Proof of Theorem 1.
The proof of this theorem depends on the arguments used in [9,18]. Let us first assume that for some , for some and for some . Thanks to Minkowski’s inequality, we have that
Let . For , let be a smooth partition of unity in adapted to the interval . In fact, we require the following:
Let . Then, for , one can deduce that
where
Notice that, we prove Theorem 1 for the case once we show that
for , and
for and for some .
Let us prove the inequality (27). First, we consider the case . In this case, we have . Thus, by Plancherel’s theorem, (8), and the fact with , we get that
where and . Therefore,
On the other hand, by Lemma 3, we directly get that
for , and
for . Consequently, interpolating (29) with (30) and (31), we achieve (27) and (28). □
Proof of Theorem 2.
The proof of Theorem 2 can be obtained by applying the above approaches except we need to invoke instead of , and Lemma 4 instead of Lemma 3. □
