Burkholder's Inequalities in Noncommutative Lorentz PROCEEDINGS OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 138, Number 7, July 2010, Pages 2431–2441 S 0002-9939(10)10267-6 Article electronically published on March 24, 2010 BURKHOLDER’S INEQUALITIES IN NONCOMMUTATIVE LORENTZ SPACES YONG JIAO (Communicated by Marius Junge) Abstract. We prove Burkholder’s inequalities in noncommutative Lorentz spaces Lp,q(M), 1 <p<∞, 1 ≤ q<∞, associated with a von Neumann algebra M equipped with a faithful normal tracial state. These estimates generalize the classical inequalities in the commutative case. 1. Introduction Martingale inequalities and sums of independent random variables are important tools in classical harmonic analysis. A fundamental result due to Burkholder [1, 2] can be stated as follows. Given a probability space (Ω, F ,P), let {Fn}n≥1 be a nondecreasing sequence of σ-fields of F such that F = ∨Fn and let En be the conditional expectation operator relative to Fn. Given 2 ≤ p<∞ and an p L -bounded martingale f =(fn)n≥1, we have ∞ ∞ 1/2 1/p 2 p (1.1) fLp ≈ Ek−1(|df k| ) + |df k| . Lp Lp k=1 k=1 The first term on the right is called the conditioned square function of f, while the second is called the p-variation of f. Rosenthal’s inequalities [14] can be regarded as the particular case where the sequence df =(df 1,df2, ...) is a family of independent mean-zero random variables df k = ak. In this case it is easy to reduce Rosenthal’s inequalities to ∞ ∞ ∞ 1/2 1/p ≈ 2 p (1.2) ak Lp ak 2 + ak p . k=1 k=1 k=1 Noncommutative analogues of the above inequalities were successfully obtained by Junge and Xu in [10] and [11]. They replaced conditioned expectations onto the σ- subfields by conditioned expectations onto an increasing sequence of von Neumann subalgebras of a given von Neumann algebra.

Moreover, they obtained a simpler inequality for 1 <p≤ 2 by duality. Recently, Randrianantoanina [15] proved a weak-type inequality for conditioned square functions, which implies Junge and Xu’s noncommutative Burkholder in- equalities by interpolation. This alternate approach yields better constants, some of which are optimal. Our original motivation comes from the classical extension to Lorentz spaces of Rosenthal’s inequalities (1.2) by Carothers and Dilworth [5], i.e., for 2 <p< ∞, 0 <q≤∞, and any independent mean-zero random variables f1,f2, ..., fn, n n n p,q ≈ ⊕ (1.4) fk L (Ω) max fk L2(Ω), fk Lp,q (0,∞) , k=1 k=1 k=1 n ⊕ where k=1 fk denotes the disjoint sum of f1,f2, ..., fn, which is a function on ∞ n (0, ) with df (t)= k=1 dfk (t). Inspired by (1.3) and (1.4), in this paper we consider Burkholder’s inequalities in noncommutative Lorentz spaces Lp,q(M), 1 <p<∞, 1 ≤ q<∞, and one of our main results can be stated as follows (see Theorem 3.1 for the detailed statement): for 2 <p<∞, 1 ≤ q<∞, and any finite Lp,q(M)-martingale x, we have (1.5) p,q M ≈ ⊗ x L ( ) max dxk ek Lp,q (M⊗∞), sc(x) Lp,q (M), sr(x) Lp,q (M) . k Note that if p = q, we come back to the inequalities (1.3). We also extend these inequalities to the case where 1 <p<2, 1 ≤ q<∞. Our main results are contained in section 3. Note that the proofs of these inequalities for Lp-spaces in [10] and [11] use an iteration argument; however, this iteration seems inefficient (or more complicated) for the case of Lorentz spaces. We will adopt a different approach based on the Randrianantoanina weak-type (1,1) inequality. 2. Preliminaries Let (Ω, F ,P) be a (commutative) probability space and f a random variable on (Ω, F ,P). The decreasing rearrangement of f, denoted by f ∗, is f ∗(t)=inf{s>0: P (|f| >s) ≤ t},t ∈ [0, 1]. The Lorentz space Lp,q(Ω) = Lp,q, 0 <p<∞, 0 <q≤ ∞, consists of those measurable functions with finite quasi-norm fp,q given by ∞ 1/q 1/p ∗ q dt fp,q = t f (t) , 0 <q<∞, 0 t 1/p ∗ fp,∞ =supt f (t),q= ∞. t>0 It is well known that if 1 <p<∞ and 1 ≤ q ≤∞, then fp,q is equivalent to a norm. H¨older’s inequality for Lorentz spaces is the following, which first appeared in the work of O’Neil [8]: ≤ fg p,q C f p0,q0 g p1,q1 License or copyright restrictions may apply to redistribution; see https://www.ams.org/journal-terms-of-use BURKHOLDER’S INEQUALITIES IN NONCOMMUTATIVE LORENTZ SPACES 2433 for all 0 <p,q,p0,q0,p1,q1 ≤∞such that 1/p =1/p0 +1/p1 and 1/q =1/q0 +1/q1. We refer to [3], [4], and [7] for details on classical (commutative) Lorentz spaces. Now we introduce the noncommutative Lorentz spaces. Let (M,τ) be a tracial noncommutative probability space. Namely, M is a von Neumann algebra with a normal faithful normalized trace τ. We refer to [13] for noncommutative integration and additional historical references. We only briefly recall some elementary facts about noncommutative Lorentz spaces. Let L0(M) denote the topological ∗-algebra of all measurable operators with respect to (M,τ). For x ∈ L0(M), define its generalized singular number by μt(x) = inf{λ>0: τ 1(λ,∞)(|x|) ≤ t},t>0. Then for 0 <p<∞, p p L (M)={x ∈ L0(M):τ(|x| ) < ∞} and ∞ p | |p p x Lp(M) = τ( x )= μt(t) dt. 0 Of special interest in this paper are the noncommutative Lorentz spaces Lp,q(M) associated with (M,τ): p,q L (M)={x ∈ L0(M):xLp,q (M) < ∞}, where ∞ 1/q 1/p q dt xLp,q (M) = t μt(x) 0 t for 0 <q<∞ and with the usual modification for q = ∞. The noncommutative Lorentz spaces behave well with respect to real interpola- tion. Let 0 <θ<1, 0 <pk,qk ≤∞for k =0, 1andp0 = p1.Then p,q p0,q0 p1,q1 L (M)=[L (M),L (M)]θ,q, where 1/p =(1− θ)/p0 + θ/p1, 0 <q≤∞. The usual H¨older inequality also extends to the noncommutative setting. Let 0 <pk,qk ≤∞for k =0, 1and1/p =1/p0 +1/p1, 1/q =1/q0 +1/q1. Then for any x ∈ Lp0,q0 (M)andy ∈ Lp1,q1 (M), ≤ (2.1) xy Lp,q (M) C x Lp0,q0 (M) y Lp1,q1 (M). In particular, if p = q =1, | |≤ ≤ ∀ ∈ p0,q0 M ∈ p1,q1 M τ(xy) xy L1(M) x Lp0,q0 (M) y Lp1,q1 (M), x L ( ),y L ( ). For 1 <p<∞, 1 ≤ q<∞, this defines a natural duality ∗ Lp,q(M) = Lp ,q (M), where p,q denote the conjugate indices of p, q, respectively, and x, y = τ(xy). Let (Mn)n≥1 be an increasing sequence of von Neumann subalgebras of M such ∗ that the union of the Mn is weak -dense in M. For each n ≥ 1, it is well known that there is unique normal faithful conditional expectation En from M onto Mn. p,q p,q Moreover, En extends to a bounded projection from L (M)ontoL (Mn)for 1 <p<∞, 1 ≤ q ≤∞, which we still denote by En.

Introduction It is well-known that if (0394, F, IL) is a u-finite measure space and if 1 ~ p 00, then the Banach dual L *p of the Banach space Lp = Lp(0394, IL) can be identified with Lq = Lq(L1, 03BC), where p-1 + q-1 = 1. For p =00 the situation is different; the space Li is a linear subspace of L*, and only in a very trivial situation (the finite-dimensional case) we have Li = Lfi. Restricting ourselves to the real case, the Banach dual L *~ is a (real) Riesz space, i.e., a vector lattice, and Li is now a band in L*. The disjoint complement (i.e., the set of all elements in L* disjoint to all elements in LI) is also a band in L*, called the band of singular linear functionals on Loo.

    GREEN’S FUNCTION FOR SECOND ORDER ELLIPTIC EQUATIONS WITH SINGULAR LOWER ORDER COEFFICIENTS SEICK KIM AND GEORGIOS SAKELLARIS Abstract. We construct Green’s function for second order elliptic operators of the form Lu = −∇ · (A∇u + bu) + c · ∇u + du in a domain and obtain pointwise bounds, as well as Lorentz space bounds. We assume that the matrix of principal coefficients A is uniformly elliptic and bounded and the lower order coefficients b, c, and d belong to certain Lebesgue classes and satisfy the condition d −∇· b ≥ 0. In particular, we allow the lower order coefficients to be singular. We also obtain the global pointwise bounds for the gradient of Green’s function in the case when the mean oscillations of the coefficients A and b satisfy the Dini conditions and the domain is C1,Dini. 1. Introduction Let Ω be a domain (i.e., an open connected set) in Rn with n ≥ 3. We consider second order elliptic operators in divergence form n n ij i i Lu = − Di(a (x)Dju + b (x)u) + c (x)Diu + d(x)u, iX,j=1 Xi=1 which hereafter shall be abbreviated as Lu = − div(A∇u + bu) + c · ∇u + du. We assume that the principal coefficients A = (aij) are measurable n × n matrices that are bounded and uniformly elliptic; i.e. there is a constant λ> 0 such that n λ|ξ|2 ≤ A(x)ξ · ξ = aij(x)ξiξj, ∀x ∈ Ω, ∀ξ ∈ Rn. (1.1) iX,j=1 We also assume that the lower order coefficients b = (b1,..., bn), c = (c1,..., cn), and d are such that b ∈ Lq(Ω), c ∈ Lr(Ω), d ∈ Ls(Ω) for some q, r ≥ n, s ≥ n/2.

CARRO, ALEJANDRO GARC´IA DEL AMO, AND JAVIER SORIA (Communicated by J. Marshall Ash) Abstract. We show that the Lorentz space Λ1(w) is a Banach space if and only if the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator M satisfies a certain weak-type estimate. We also consider the case of general measures. Finally, we study some properties of several indices associated to these spaces. 1. Introduction We are going to study weighted Lorentz spaces of functions defined in Rn as follows (for standard notation we refer to [BS] and [GR]): If u is a weight in Rn, + w is a weight in R , fu∗ denotes the decreasing rearrangement of f with respect to the measure u(x) dx and 0 <p< , we define ∞ 1/p ∞ p p p Λu(w)= f; f Λu(w) = fu∗(t) w(t)dt < . k k 0 ∞ Z If u 1, we will only write Λp(w). Classical examples are obtained by choosing ≡ (p/q) 1 p q,p w(t)=t − .InthiscaseΛ(w)=L . A classical result of G.G. Lorentz (see [Lo]) shows that Λ1(w) is a norm, if and only if, w is a decreasing function. The problem of findingk·k conditions on w so that Λp(w) is a Banach space (that is, there exists a norm equivalent to Λp(w)) was solved, for p>1, by E. Sawyer ([Sa]). This condition is that the Hardy-Littlewoodk·k maximal operator is bounded on Λp(w).

    SHARP LORENTZ SPACE ESTIMATES FOR ROUGH OPERATORS Andreas Seeger and Terence Tao Abstract. We demonstrate the (H1,L1,2) or (Lp,Lp,2) mapping properties of several rough operators. In all cases these estimates are sharp in the sense that the Lorentz exponent 2 cannot be replaced by any lower number. 1. Introduction In this paper we consider the endpoint behaviour on Hardy spaces of two classes of operators, namely singular integral operators with rough homogeneous kernels [4] and singular integral operators with con- volution kernels supported on curves in the plane ([20], [27]). These operators fall outside the Calder´on- Zygmund theory; however weak type (L1,L1,∞) or (H1,L1,∞) inequalities have been established in the previous literature ([7], [9], [16] [18], [25], [29]) We shall show that the target space L1,∞ can be improved to the Lorentz space L1,2, possibly at the cost of moving to a stronger type of Hardy space (e.g. product H1). Examples of Christ [8], [17] show that these types of results are optimal in the sense that one cannot replace L1,2 by L1,q for any q< 2. The space L1,2 arises naturally as the interpolation space halfway between L1,∞ and L1. As a gross caricature of how this space arises, suppose that we have a collection of functions fi which are uniformly bounded in L1, and whose maximal function sup f is in weak L1, and we wish to estimate the quantity i | i| γifi L1,2 Xi 2 for some l co-efficients γi. If the fi are sufficiently orthogonal, we may hope to control this quantity by the square function 2 1/2 (1.1) γifi .

Upper estimates for the order of Gâteaux smoothness of bump functions in Orlicz– Lorentz spaces d(w, M, Γ), Γ uncountable, are obtained. The best possible order of Gâteaux differentiability in the class of all equivalent norms in d(w, M, Γ) is found. Key words and phrases: Orlicz function, Orlicz–Lorentz space, Smooth bump functions. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. 46B25, 40E30. 1. INTRODUCTION The existence of higher order Fréchet smooth norms and bump functions and its impact on the geometrical properties of a Banach space have been subject to many investigations begin- ning with the classical result for Lp–spaces in [1] and [6]. An extensive study and bibliography may be found in [2]. As any negative result on the existence of Gâteaux smooth bump func- tions immediately applies to the problem of existence of Fréchet smooth bump functions and norms, the question arises of estimating the best possible order of Gâteaux smoothness of bump functions in a given Banach space. A variational technique (the Ekeland variational principle) was applied in [2] to show that in `1(Γ), Γ uncountable, there is no continuous Gâteaux dif- ferentiable bump function. Following the same idea and using Stegall’s variational principle, an extension of this result to Banach spaces with uncountable unconditional basis was given in [4] and to Banach spaces with uncountable symmetric basis in [9].

  • Type, Cotype and Convexity Properties of Quasi–Banach Spaces
    Proceedings of the International Symposium on Banach and Function Spaces Kitakyushu, Japan, October 2-4, 2003, pp. 83-120 TYPE, COTYPE AND CONVEXITY PROPERTIES OF QUASI–BANACH SPACES LECH MALIGRANDA Abstract. Results on quasi-Banach spaces, their type and cotype together with the convexity and concavity of quasi- Banach lattices are collected. Several proofs are included. Then the Lebesgue Lp, the Lorentz Lp,q and the Marcinkiewicz Lp,∞ spaces are the special examples. We review also several results of Kami´nska and the author on convexity, concavity, type and cotype of general Lorentz spaces Λp,w. Introduction The notions of type and cotype of Banach spaces emerged from the work of J. Hoffman-J¨orgensen, S. Kwapie´n, B. Maurey, B. Maurey and G. Pisier in early 1970’s. Since then, these notions have found frequent use in geometry of Banach spaces as well as in probability theory in Banach spaces. For the Banach lattices related notions of p-convexity, q-concavity and upper p-estimate, lower q-estimate appeared in Krivine paper and then in classical Lindenstrauss-Tzafriri book [30]. These concepts are natural even in quasi-Banach spaces where we have triangle inequality with a certain constant C ≥ 1 instead of C =1 or in p-Banach spaces (0 <p<1). Many definitions and classical results in Banach spaces can be translated in a natural way to definitions and results in quasi-Banach or p-Banach spaces. These were done initially in eighties by N.

Warning. The quantity in (1) does not define a norm. This is the reason we append the asterisk to the usual norm notation.

  • ON the DUAL of ORLICZ–LORENTZ SPACE 1. Introduction
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 130, Number 6, Pages 1645{1654 S 0002-9939(02)05997-X Article electronically published on January 25, 2002 ON THE DUAL OF ORLICZ{LORENTZ SPACE H. HUDZIK, A. KAMINSKA,´ AND M. MASTYLO (Communicated by Dale Alspach) Abstract. A description of the K¨othe dual of the Orlicz{Lorentz space Λ';w generated by an Orlicz function ' and a regular weight function w is pre- sented. It is also shown that in the case of separable Orlicz{Lorentz spaces the regularity condition on w is necessary and sufficient for the coincidence of the Banach dual space with the described K¨othe dual space. 1. Introduction Let (Ω,µ):=(Ω; Σ,µ) be a measure space with the complete and σ-finite measure µ,andletL0(µ) denote the space of all µ-equivalence classes of Σ-measurable functions on Ω with the topology of convergence in measure on µ-finite sets. A Banach space (E;k·kE)issaidtobeaBanach function space on (Ω,µ)ifit is a subspace of L0(µ) such that there exists h 2 L0(µ)withh>0a.e.inΩand the assumptions that f 2 L0(µ), g 2 E and jf|≤jgj a.e. in Ω imply f 2 E and 0 kfkE ≤kgkE. If in addition the unit ball BE = ff : kfkE ≤ 1g is closed in L (µ), then we say that E has the Fatou property. A Banach function space defined on (N; 2N,µ) with the counting measure µ is called a Banach sequence space (on N). A Banach function space E on (Ω,µ)issaidtobesymmetric if for every f 2 0 L (µ)andg 2 E with µf = µg,wehavef 2 E and kfkE = kgkE,whereforany 0 h 2 L (µ),µh is the distribution function defined by µh(t)=µ(f! 2 Ω:jh(!)j >tg);t≥ 0: If E is a Banach function space on (Ω,µ), then the K¨othe dual E0 of E is a Banach function space, which can be identified with the space of all functionals possessing an integral representation, that is, Z 0 f 2 0 k k 0 j j 1g E = g L (µ): g E =sup fg dµ < : kfkE ≤1 Ω It is well known that if E has order continuous norm (i.e., kfnkE ! 0 whenever ∗ 0 E 3 fn # 0), then the dual space E can be naturally identified with E ([8]).
